Overall a nice PR, thank you 👍 I do have some small things I would do differently:
- Most configurations can be minimized to only have the fields, which are relevant to the test, e.g.,
config/testdata/conf.telegram-no-bot-token.yml
route:
receiver: team-X-telegram
receivers:
- name: team-X-telegram
telegram_configs:
- chat_id: 123
- I am also unsure about the error message, in case the token is missing:
FAILED: no global Telegram BotToken set either inline or in a file
Before it was this:
FAILED: missing bot_token or bot_token_file on telegram_config
I do admit that the victorops integration has the same issue.
- I would like to see tested is this case:
global:
telegram_bot_token_file: '/global_file'
telegram_bot_token: 'abc123'
route:
receiver: team-X-telegram
receivers:
- name: 'team-X-telegram'
telegram_configs:
- chat_id: 456
bot_token_file: /override_fileHere all receivers are valid, and in theory alertmanager could ignore the error. We don't and that is a good thing, but still a good thing to document.

Nice! We have to wait for the maintainers to approval, but I see no blockers.

Others mostly us a message like "no global Telegram token set either inline or in a file" , there are already other variations like: "no msteams webhook URL or URLFile provided"
We should come up with a unified wording for these errors, maybe also including the receiver name.

@guoard There are some merge conflicts. Could you resolve them? I can also do, but would have to pick your commits to a branch of my own. |

This PR adds global configuration support for Telegram bot tokens in Alertmanager. Until now,
telegram_bot_tokenandtelegram_bot_token_filecould only be set per receiver, which could lead to redundant configuration when multiple receivers used the same bot.
