BackupGram

A Telegram client which its only purpose is to back up your messages in chats, groups and channels and store them as HTML and Excel files.

This experimental project, suggested by my AI teacher in sixth semester of university, was created before Telegram added its backup feature.

Internally, BackupGram uses this project to call Telegram APIs; because some modifications were needed, the entire source is included in BackupGram source.

Running BackupGram

• Obtain your app api_id and api_hash using this tutorial;
• Install Java 8 (newer Java versions don't include JavaFX and needed to be included using maven dependency) and Maven;
• Run mvn clean compile assembly:single to create JAR file;
• cd target;
• Start BackupGram using java -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar JAR_FILE.jar --api-id=<YOUR_API_ID> --api-hash=<YOUR_API_HASH>
