Protect T-rump backend Go code explanation + +### 5.1 Overview +This project is a backend application based on the Go language and GORM framework, mainly used to handle user login, game interaction, and reward collection for Telegram Web applications. The application communicates with the frontend through multiple RESTful API interfaces and uses PostgreSQL to store and manage user data, bodyguards, buffs, and reward information. + +### 5.2 Directory structure +```shell +. +├── handlers # Functions to handle HTTP requests +├── middlewares # Middleware for validating Telegram data +├── models # Database model definitions +├── tasks # Scheduled tasks, such as leaderboard updates and cleanup tasks +├── utils # Utility functions, such as extracting Telegram user data +└── main.go # Entry point of the application +``` + +### 5.3 Environment configuration +```shell +DB_HOST=localhost +DB_USER=your_db_user +DB_PASSWORD=your_db_password +DB_NAME=your_db_name +DB_PORT=5432 +DB_SSLMODE=disable +DB_TIMEZONE=Asia/Shanghai +TG_BOT_TOKEN=your_telegram_bot_token +PORT=8080 +``` + +### 5.4 Database configuration and migration +The application uses GORM for database operations and will automatically migrate the following data models at startup: + +- User: User information, including Telegram ID, username, coins, etc. +- Bodyguard: Bodyguard information associated with the user. +- Buff: Buff effects associated with the bodyguard. +- CoinRecord: Coin records. +- InvitedUser: Information about invited users. + +In the main.go file, the database is connected and migrated using the following code: +```go +dsn := "host=" + os.Getenv("DB_HOST") + + " user=" + os.Getenv("DB_USER") + + " password=" + os.Getenv("DB_PASSWORD") + + " dbname=" + os.Getenv("DB_NAME") + + " port=" + os.Getenv("DB_PORT") + + " sslmode=" + os.Getenv("DB_SSLMODE") + + " TimeZone=" + os.Getenv("DB_TIMEZONE") + +db, err := gorm.Open(postgres.Open(dsn), &gorm.Config{}) +if err != nil { + log.Fatalf("Failed to connect to the database: %v", err) +} + +db.AutoMigrate(&models.User{}, &models.Bodyguard{}, &models.Buff{}, &models.CoinRecord{}, &models.InvitedUser{}) +``` + +### 5.5 Scheduled Tasks +The application includes two scheduled tasks: + +1. Cleanup Task: Runs every 5 minutes to clean up invalid or expired data. +2. Leaderboard Update Task: Runs every minute to update the user's coin leaderboard. +```go +tasks.StartCleanupTask(db, time.Minute*5) +tasks.StartLeaderboardUpdateTask(db, time.Minute*1) +``` + +### 5.6 Middleware + +1. AuthMiddleware +- Description: Used to validate whether the Telegram initialization data in the request is valid. +- Parameters: + - next: The next handler + - botToken: The Telegram bot's Token + +```go +func AuthMiddleware(next http.HandlerFunc, botToken string) http.HandlerFunc { + return func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { + body, err := io.ReadAll(r.Body) + if err != nil { + http.Error(w, "Invalid request body", http.StatusBadRequest) + return + } + defer r.Body.Close() + + var req struct { + TelegramInitData string `json:"telegram_init_data"` + } + if err := json.Unmarshal(body, &req); err != nil { + http.Error(w, "Invalid request body", http.StatusBadRequest) + return + } + + if !validateTelegramData(req.TelegramInitData, botToken) { + http.Error(w, "Invalid Telegram data", http.StatusUnauthorized) + return + } + + r.Body = io.NopCloser(bytes.NewBuffer(body)) + next.ServeHTTP(w, r) + } +} +``` + +## 6. Detailed Steps to Create a Telegram Bot and Web App + +### 6.1 Create a Bot +1. Search for BotFather + - Open Telegram, search for BotFather, which is the official Bot management tool of Telegram. +2. Start a conversation + - Type /start to initiate a conversation with BotFather. +3. Create a new Bot + - Type /newbot to create a new Bot. +4. Enter the Bot name + - Choose a name and enter protectRump. +5. Enter the Bot username + - The username must end with Bot or _bot. For example: protectRumpBot. +6. Save the Token + - After creation, BotFather will generate an API Token. Note down this Token for the subsequent steps. + +### 6.2 Create a Web App +1. Start Web App creation + - Type /newapp in BotFather to create a new Web App. +2. Select the Bot + - Choose the Bot you just created, for example, protectRumpBot. +3. Enter the Web App name + - Enter the name of your Web App. + - Description modifies the description of the web app, which is the content of What can this bot do? +4. Upload an image + - Upload a 640*360 image to serve as the icon for the Web App. + - Botpic modifies the avatar. +5. Upload a GIF + - Upload a GIF file. If you don't have one, you can type /empty to skip this step. +6. Enter the Web App URL + - Enter your game address, for example, [https://protect-rump.zypher.game](https://protect-rump.zypher.game) +7. Enter a short name + - Choose a short name for the Web App link, for example, protectRump. +8. Complete the creation + - After successful creation, you will receive your Web App link, for example, [t.me/protectRumpBot/protectRump](t.me/protectRumpBot/protectRump) + +Through the above steps, you have successfully created a Telegram Bot and Web App. Next, you can integrate the game into your Web App and use Telegram's Web App interface for interaction. + +### 6.3 Test Environment Configuration +[https://core.telegram.org/bots/webapps#using-bots-in-the-test-environment](https://core.telegram.org/bots/webapps#using-bots-in-the-test-environment) + + + + diff --git a/static/blog/cocos-tg/P1.png b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P1.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..f171fb2 Binary files /dev/null and b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P1.png differ diff --git a/static/blog/cocos-tg/P2.png b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P2.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..a7e3e2b Binary files /dev/null and b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P2.png differ diff --git a/static/blog/cocos-tg/P3.png b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P3.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..de66eca Binary files /dev/null and b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P3.png differ diff --git a/static/blog/cocos-tg/P4.png b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P4.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4a7250c Binary files /dev/null and b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P4.png differ diff --git a/static/blog/cocos-tg/P5.png b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P5.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d50a495 Binary files /dev/null and b/static/blog/cocos-tg/P5.png differ
