[PYTHON] A memo to move Errbot locally

I found it when I was looking for "Is there a Python chatbot?", So I will use it for a while.

http://errbot.io/

Manual diagonal reading

A collection of my own understanding when checking roughly from the document

• Backend mechanisms for some chat services such as Slack, Hipchat, etc. are included from the beginning (equivalent to hubot adapter)
• Is it possible to judge whether the person you talked to is an administrator and move?
• It seems that there is a local operation mode for verifying the plugin (bot behavior)
• There seems to be a mechanism to "speak at n-minute intervals"
• However, I haven't found anything like cron that speaks at n o'clock every day.

Installation

Assumed environment

• Built using pyenv

Until installation

Try to install

$ pyenv virtualenv 3.5.1 errbot
$ pyenv shell errbot
$ pip install errbot slackclient
$ mkdir mybot
$ cd mybot
$ python -c "import errbot;import os;import shutil;shutil.copyfile(os.path.dirname(errbot.__file__) + os.path.sep + 'config-template.py', 'config.py')"

Add settings

Places that should be modified for "operation check for the time being"

config.py

# L66
#Folder for saving data. Relative path is easier to check behavior
BOT_DATA_DIR = './data'
# L85
#Where to put custom plugins. The default is None, but if you make it anyway, use a relative path
BOT_EXTRA_PLUGIN_DIR = './plugins'

Try to run

For the time being, try starting it with text on the backend

$ vi config.py
$ errbot -T
22:30:14 INFO     errbot.err                Config check passed...
22:30:14 INFO     errbot.err                Selected backend 'Text'.
(Omission)
22:30:15 INFO     errbot.errBot
22:30:15 INFO     errbot.errBot             Notifying connection to all the plugins...
22:30:15 INFO     errbot.plugins.ChatRoom   Callback_connect
22:30:15 INFO     errbot.errBot             Plugin activation done.

Roughly, behavior explanation

By default, the text that starts with ! Is recognized as an instruction to the bot. As a test, when I call for help, it looks like this.

I omitted it because the amount of output is extremely large, but it returns the response in various formats such as Markdown, HTML, plain text. For example, if you start Slack to react, it will return it in HTML format.

I'm playing around with it, so I'd like to post it here and there.
