Files from telegram are not reproduced on gitter

[xeon-zolt]

Files shared in telegram group are not reproduced in gitter group like documents pictures
I think that one solution can be to host the file and reproduce the link on gitter

[gabru-md]

Telegram hosts these files for us. All we need to do is reproduce the link
I will get onto it

@xeon-zolt @gabru-md looking into hubot and hubot-gitter2's code - the gitter adapter for hubot only supports the TextMessage class. It is possible to extend hubot's Message to handle other types of messages, find an example here

class TextMessage extends Message {
  // Represents an incoming message from the chat.
  //
  // user - A User instance that sent the message.
  // text - A String message.
  // id   - A String of the message ID.
  constructor (user, text, id) {
    super(user)
    this.text = text
    this.id = id
  }
...

and here

@Sprinting can you do this?
Since we need people to contribute to this. Maybe you can help us with this issue ?
What say ? :)

@gabru-md This task doesn't particularly interest me, and I'm busy with one other project I really want to finish first. I also suspect that this will require rewriting an adapter for hubot if you don't want to hack your way through hubot-gitter2

The comment was just because I was browsing through hubot's code to see if making it support multiple adapters simultaneously is feasible.
