1. Install requests and python-telegram-bot

   pip install requests
   

   pip install python-telegram-bot
   

2. Buy real-name verification service at Aliyun Marketplace here You may use another API interface. Simply modify cnid_checker.py

3. Replace APP_CODE in cnid_checker.py with your own Aliyun appcode You can find your appcode in Aliyun Console

4. Replace API_TOKEN in guard_id_checker.py with your Telegram bot API key

5. Fill the Telegram ID(s) of Telegram client account(s) that is going to use this bot in authorized in guard_id_checker.py This avoids unauthorized people using your bot and Aliyun Marketplace API(API calls are charged by the provider).

After you send the message in correct format to the bot, it will process the checking and reply:

1. 实名认证通过 Real-name verification passed! - ID # and name is successfully verified
2. 实名认证失败 Real-name verification failed! - No record in MPS system or name/ID # does no match

4. 身份证格式不正确 Incorrect ID format! - ID # is not in correct format
