## Features

### Access Commands

- **/start**: This command shows you how to use the bot. It's like a guidebook for all the commands and what they do.

- **/chat**: Use this to talk to the AI. You can ask questions, make requests, or just chat about anything.

- **/image**: Want to see what something looks like? Type a description, and this command will create an image for you.

- **/prodia**: Similar to `/image`, but it gives you a different style of image.

- **/speak**: If you prefer listening to text instead of reading it, use this command to have the AI read out text for you.

- **/intro**: Sets a new text for the chat intro.

- **/voice**: Choose how the AI's voice sounds when it reads out text.

- **/provider**: Switch between different AI providers for various features.

- **/awesome**: Browse through a selection of cool chat intros.

- **/history**: See past conversations with the bot.

- **/check**: See what settings are currently active for your bot.

- **/reset**: Start a new conversation from scratch.

- **/myid**: Find out your Telegram ID.

- **/suspend**: Temporarily stop the bot from responding.

- **/resume**: Restart the bot after it's been suspended.

- **Any other text**: Just type anything to continue chatting.

### Administrative Commands

- **/clear**: Remove all chat data from the bot's database. Be careful with this one!

- **/total**: See how many chats the bot has had.

- **/drop**: Delete everything from the chat table and bot logs. This is more extreme than `/clear`.

- **/sql**: Run SQL queries on the bot's database. Use this with caution!

- **/logs**: Check the bot's logs for activity, errors, and user interactions.

- `any other text`: An alias for `/chat`, allowing users to continue with chatting.

> [!TIP]
> For a better understanding of these commands, try interacting with a running bot from [@pytgpt_bot](https://t.me/pytgpt_bot). This can give you a practical idea of how the bot works and how to use it effectively.

### Administrative Commands

- **/clear**: Use this command to remove all chat data from the bot's database. It's a powerful tool, so use it carefully to avoid losing important data.

- **/total**: This command shows you the total number of chats the bot has handled. It's a quick way to see how much interaction the bot has had.

- **/drop**: If you need to completely wipe out all chat data and logs, use this command. It's more extreme than `/clear` and should be used with caution to avoid losing all data.

- **/sql**: Want to directly interact with the bot's database? This command lets you run SQL queries. It's a powerful feature for managing and analyzing data, but be cautious to avoid mistakes.

- **/logs**: This command gives you access to the bot's logs. It's useful for monitoring the bot's activity, spotting errors, and understanding user interactions.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Administrative commands are restricted to the users whose Telegram IDs are specified in the [.env](https://github.com/Simatwa/pytgpt-bot/blob/308f6079d153a429c445649896840fdc7cbfac11/env#L12) file.

## Further Tips

- The bot features inline query for text generation. The query must end with *three ellipsis* `...`. Remember to enable the mode from [@BotFather](https://t.me/pytgpt_bot). `/setinline`
- You can as well add the bot to a Telegram channel. Grant it read and delete permissions. The access commands will still work out. `@bot_username <text>` will trigger **text generation**.
- Channel Admin will control the bot access using the `/suspend` and `/resume` commands. *(Experimental).*
