Telegram-to-Discord File Forwarding Bot

This project is a flexible bot that forwards messages and media files from a Telegram channel to a Discord channel. Users can choose between forwarding messages with the Discord Client or a Discord Webhook for seamless integration and easier setup.

Features

• Two Modes for Forwarding:
  • Client Mode: Uses a Discord Bot Client for message transfer, suitable for setups where bot presence in the Discord server is needed.
  • Webhook Mode: Uses a Discord Webhook to forward messages, reducing the need for a logged-in bot client.
• Supports Various Media Types:
  • Text messages
  • Photos, Videos, and Documents
• Transfer Logging:
  • Logs each file transfer with filename, timestamp, and caption.
  • Accessible via a simple web interface.
