npm dependencies

const { Sequelize, Op, Model, DataTypes } = require("sequelize");

const sequelize = new Sequelize({
  // The `host` parameter is required for other databases
  // host: 'localhost'
  dialect: "sqlite",
  storage: "./database.sqlite",
});

const Article = sequelize.define("Article", {
  title: DataTypes.STRING,
  content: DataTypes.TEXT,
  contentSnippet: DataTypes.TEXT,
  creator: DataTypes.STRING,
  guid: {
    type: DataTypes.STRING,
    unique: true,
  },
  link: DataTypes.STRING,

// sequelize.sync({ force: true }) will be useful if you need to start from scratch
sequelize
  .sync() 
  .then(() => {});

const { Telegraf } = require("telegraf");
const Parser = require("rss-parser");

const bot = new Telegraf(YOUR-TELEGRAM-BOT-KEY);

const rssUrl = "https://www.sensor-magazin.de/feed/"
const telegramChannel = "@sensormainz_inoffiziell"

  const feed = await parser.parseURL(rssUrl);
  feed.items.forEach((item) => {
    Article.create({
      title: item.title,
