3. dokku config:set --no-restart [APP-NAME] API_ID=[YOUR-API_ID]
4. dokku config:set --no-restart [APP-NAME] API_HASH=[YOUR-API_HASH]
5. dokku postgres:create [DB-NAME] (requires postgres plugin)
6. doku postgres:link [DB-NAME] [APP-NAME]

From local machine:
7. git init
8. git clone git@github.com:l0rem/TacoBot.git
9. git remote add dokku dokku@dokku.me:[APP-NAME]
