  'Server Started',
  'Application server started successfully',
  { port: 3001, environment: 'production' }
);
```

### User Registration

```typescript
await notificationService.notifyNewUser({
  userId: 'user-123',
  anonymousId: 'anon-456',
  username: 'john_doe',
  email: 'john@example.com',
  registeredAt: new Date().toISOString(),
  ipAddress: '192.168.1.1',
});
```

### Error Notification

```typescript
await notificationService.notifySystemError({
  errorType: 'DatabaseError',
  errorMessage: 'Failed to connect to database',
  stackTrace: 'Error: ...',
  path: '/api/users',
  method: 'POST',
  statusCode: 500,
});
```

### Module Completion

```typescript
await notificationService.notifyModuleCompleted({
  userId: 'user-123',
  anonymousId: 'anon-456',
  moduleName: 'Vectores y Espacios Vectoriales',
  moduleType: 'FUNDAMENTOS',
  finalScore: 95,
  totalPoints: 1250,
  exercisesCompleted: 45,
  timeSpentMinutes: 120,
  startedAt: startDate.toISOString(),
  completedAt: new Date().toISOString(),
});
```

### Achievement Notification

```typescript
await notificationService.notifyTop10Entry({
  userId: 'user-123',
  anonymousId: 'anon-456',
  position: 5,
  points: 2500,
  exercisesCompleted: 120,
  streak: 15,
});
```

## Testing

### Run All Tests

```bash
npm run test:telegram
```

### Manual Testing

```typescript
import * as telegramTests from './scripts/test-telegram';

// Test specific component
await telegramTests.testTelegramClient();
await telegramTests.testSystemNotification();

// Run all tests
await telegramTests.runTests();
```

## Architecture Highlights

### Separation of Concerns
- **Config**: Settings and validation
- **Client**: HTTP communication with Telegram API
- **Templates**: Message formatting
- **Service**: Business logic and queue management
- **Worker**: Background job processing

### Reliability Features
- Automatic retry on failure
- Exponential backoff for retries
- Job persistence with Redis
- Dead letter queue for failed jobs
- Health checks for monitoring

### Performance Optimizations
- Async queue processing
- Rate limiting to avoid API limits
- Connection pooling (via axios)
- Efficient message formatting
- Batch notification support

### Security Considerations
- No Telegram exposure to end users
- Bot token stored in environment variables
- Admin-only chat ID
- Input sanitization in templates
- Error message filtering

## Dependencies

- `axios`: HTTP client for Telegram API
- `bull`: Queue system for async processing
- `ioredis`: Redis client for queue
- `date-fns`: Date formatting
- `winston`: Logging
- `uuid`: Unique ID generation

## Integration Points

### With Other Modules

1. **User Module**: Notify on new user registration
2. **Exercise Module**: Notify on exercise completion
3. **Progress Module**: Notify on module completion
4. **Ranking Module**: Notify on top 10 entry
5. **Achievement Module**: Notify on badge unlocks

### Example Integration

```typescript
// In user registration handler
import { notificationService } from './modules/notification';

async function handleUserRegistration(userData) {
  const user = await createUser(userData);

  // Notify admin
  await notificationService.notifyNewUser({
    userId: user.id,
    anonymousId: user.anonymousId,
    username: user.username,
    email: user.email,
    registeredAt: user.createdAt.toISOString(),
    ipAddress: request.ip,
  });

  return user;
}
```

## Monitoring

### Queue Statistics

```typescript
import { getQueueStats } from './modules/notification';

const stats = await getQueueStats();
console.log(stats);
// {
//   waiting: 5,
//   active: 2,
//   completed: 100,
//   failed: 3,
//   delayed: 0,
//   paused: false
// }
```

### Notification Statistics

```typescript
const notificationStats = await notificationService.getStatistics();
console.log(notificationStats);
// {
//   total: 150,
//   pending: 5,
//   sent: 140,
//   failed: 5,
//   todaySent: 25,
//   todayFailed: 2
// }
```

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **Notifications not sending**
   - Check `TELEGRAM_ENABLED=true`
   - Verify bot token is valid
   - Confirm admin chat ID is correct
   - Check Redis connection

2. **Queue backing up**
   - Increase `WORKER_CONCURRENCY`
   - Check for rate limiting
   - Verify network connectivity

3. **High failure rate**
   - Check Telegram API status
   - Verify bot permissions
   - Review error logs
   - Check message formatting

## Future Enhancements

Possible improvements:
- Webhook support for instant updates
- Multi-admin notifications
- Notification grouping/batching
- Custom notification scheduling
- Notification history API
- Metrics dashboard integration
- Alert threshold configuration

## Conclusion

The Telegram Notifications Module is fully implemented and ready for use. It provides:

- **Complete notification system** with 9+ notification types
