TeleZip guide

Compressed folder backups delivered to Telegram, up to 2 GB each. Repo ↗

How it beats the limit

Standard bot uploads cap at 50 MB. TeleZip points at a local Dockerized Bot API server instead, which raises the ceiling to 2 GB per file.

The all-in-one script zips folders in parallel, resumes interrupted runs, cleans up after success, skips excluded paths, encrypts with AES passwords, and captions every upload.

Prerequisites

Python 3 for the master script, Docker for the local API server, a free API ID and hash, and a bot token from BotFather. Shell and PowerShell variants cover lightweight use without Python.

Note: Keep the API credentials and bot token out of screenshots, issues, and shared configs.
