Send release notifications to Telegram

Config

announce:
  telegram:
    enabled: true
    bot_token: "{{ Env.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN }}"
    chat_id: "-100123456789"
    parse_mode: "MarkdownV2"
    message_template: "{{ ProjectName }} {{ Tag }} has been released!"

Create a Telegram bot via @BotFather and add it to the target group or channel. The chat_id is the numeric ID of the group or channel (prefix with -100 for supergroups/channels), or a public channel username like @mychannel.

Parse mode

The optional parse_mode field controls how Telegram renders the message text. Supported values:

• MarkdownV2 -- Telegram-flavored Markdown (requires escaping special characters).
• HTML -- a subset of HTML tags (<b>, <i>, <a>, <code>, <pre>).
• Omit the field to send plain text with no formatting.

Environment variables

Store the bot token in an environment variable rather than committing it to your config file:

bot_token: "{{ Env.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN }}"
