Where to save the environment variables locally?

[KavyaKinjalk]

I am trying to run this bot locally, but I cannot find where to save the .env file. Where do I save it?

[erickyun]

[KavyaKinjalk]

yeah, you simply put the env file in the app directory.

How did you setup .env file? Screenshot please?

[KavyaKinjalk]

you are correctl using the env file. You just have to put the env file in the "app" directory. Replit does not work anymore because it changed how dependency packages are installed, so you cannot install telethon. Some packages redundancy has changed as well, such as for aiohttp-jinja2. So you cannot run it on replit further, but it is possible to run it locally.

The location of env file is on the left, and right is the format of env file. It is rte same as what you sent.

Which python version do you have sir?

I am trying to run this on Android Termux and Im still getting this error?

~/tg-index $ python3 -m app
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/data/data/com.termux/files/home/tg-index/app/config.py", line 22, in <module>
    api_hash = os.environ["API_HASH"]
               ~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "<frozen os>", line 679, in __getitem__
KeyError: 'API_HASH'


Please set the API_ID and API_HASH environment variables correctly
You can get your own API keys at https://my.telegram.org/apps
~/tg-index $

Could you maybe share your tg-index as zip?
Also python version and which modules version you use?
