Notes

There are couple of tricks to get chat id of a private channel.Here's one you can do in pawn itself.

Add your bot as admin in your channel.
Make channel public and set a user name (username is one along with invite link).
Use TGSendMessage with chatid as user username with a prefix '@' and specify a callback.
Use TGCacheGetChatId to get chatid stored inside the cache.

For example my channel' username is samptest
Use following snippet

PHP Code:

new TGBot:g_bot;
main() {
    g_bot = TGConnectFromEnv("SAMP_TG_BOT");
    TGSendMessage(g_bot,TGChatId:"@samptest","test message",.callback="OnChannelSendMessage");
}
forward OnChannelSendMessage(TGBot:bot,TGMessage:messageid);
public OnChannelSendMessage(TGBot:bot,TGMessage:messageid) {
    new TGChatId:chatid[15];
    TGCacheGetChatId(chatid);
    printf("the chatid is %s",_:chatid);
    return 1;
} 


Now you can set the channel back to private.
You can also do the same by sending an api request in your browser with chatid parameter as your channel username or use OnTGChannelPost callback and send a message to your channel manually and use TGCacheGetChatId there.

Thank you so much! It's odd how they make it so difficult to find something as simple as a ID field..

It's true.But still forwarding message to @get_id_bot is easier way and idk why it didn't work for you.

[GhostHacker9]

You may have different version of openssl or different architecture. (you need 32 bit libs not 64)
Try using arch linux build. It's compiled against openssl.11.If that didn't work try building the plugin in your machine. If that's not possible I will try to make a release for Debian 8

[SiaReyes]

D*mn this is awsome Good Job!

You could release the debian version, please?

Did you try what sys told you? Install openssl on your server.

Code:

apt-get install libssl-dev:i386
