Hello. I have a problem.

Telegram\Bot\Exceptions\TelegramSDKException : [Error] Alias [listcommands] conflicts with another command's alias list: "Telegram\Bot\Commands\HelpCommand", try with another name or remove this alias from the list.

I just installed the package and did nothing else. Please help to correct this mistake. Thank you.

In the /config folder there is a telegram.php config file. If not, run this command from the command line in your project root map:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Telegram\Bot\Laravel\TelegramServiceProvider".

In the project of @YaroslavStrigun there is already a telegram.php. He has changed the global commands list and in that list there is a pointer to the HelpCommand.php in a different folder location while there is also one in the vendor map. So Laravel sees 2 x HelpCommand.php classes or commands. You need to overwrite the vendor HelpCommand by pointing to the location where your custom HelpCommand is for your bot. Comment out the global HelpCommand like so:

'commands'
    => [
        App\Http\Commands\StartCommand::class,
        //App\Http\Commands\HelpCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\TodayCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\LeftCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\WhoCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\TomorrowCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\WeekCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\NextWeekCommand::class,
        App\Http\Commands\WeeksCommand::class
    ],

Then go back to the top and change:

'bots'                         => [
        'mybot' => [
            'username'            => 'TelegramBot',
            'token'               => env('TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN', '605210044:AAHWbtxoUBgYOAinbi9niH1TAv1SQyQcQP4'),
            'certificate_path'    => env('TELEGRAM_CERTIFICATE_PATH', 'YOUR-CERTIFICATE-PATH'),
            'webhook_url'         => env('TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_URL', 'YOUR-BOT-WEBHOOK-URL'),
            'commands'            => [
                //Acme\Project\Commands\MyTelegramBot\BotCommand::class
               App\Http\Commands\HelpCommand::class,
            ],
        ],

and define your HelpCommand over there. This should solve the problem.

By the way, it is better not to cache your config while developing code. You need to remember to clear the cache everytime you change a config value and you might forget to do so. :)

he's swearing "protected $aliases = ['listcommands'];" after execution " php artisan optimize". even when adding the commands class "Telegram\Bot\Commands\HelpCommand::class"
