if (!empty($_GET)) {
    $fw = fopen($file_get, "a");
    fwrite($fw, "GET " . var_export($_GET, true));
    fclose($fw);
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,
"https://api.telegram.org/bot<token>/sendMessage?chat_id=<chat_id>&text='Новая запись в файле мониторинга: <url>'");
    $result=curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    }
?>
