Version 1.0.1

📦 Release v1.0.1 – Improved Boot Stability & Bot Resilience

This release introduces key fixes and improvements to ensure the Raspberry Pi Telegram bot starts reliably after a reboot and handles early network issues gracefully.

---

Improvements

• Enhanced systemd service file

  • Added network-online.target to ensure the bot starts only after the network is ready.
  • Introduced ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 30 to provide additional boot delay for stability.
  • Updated Restart policy to on-failure with a RestartSec=60 wait time.

• Improved Python bot script

  • Replaced asyncio.run() with native application.run_polling() to fix event loop issues.
  • Added retry mechanism using time.sleep() for better resilience on slow network startup.
  • Enhanced logging for easier debugging and monitoring.

---

Fixes

• Fixed Cannot close a running event loop crash during boot.
• The bot now consistently initializes on Raspberry Pi startup.

---

Updated Files

• temp.service (Systemd service file)
• temp.py (Main Telegram bot script)

---

Note: There's an initial delay of 1 minute until the bot starts after booting rpi.
