To set up access to the Telegram API, one has to:

• Follow theses instructions to register.
• Set the environment variables AI4TRUST_PHONE_NUMBER, AI4TRUST_API_ID and AI4TRUST_API_HASH using those provided at the end of registration.
• Locally, run the following script just once

  client = collegram.client.connect(api_id, api_hash, phone_nr)
  print(collegram.client.string_session_from(client.session))

  and set the env variable AI4TRUST_TG_SESSION using its output. This one time, you'll get prompted for a code received by message, in order to grant access to your account to your API client. Saving the session string allows you not to have to go through this prompt again in the future.
