robo 0.4.5

Dead simple bot framework.

Dead simple bot framework which is inspired by Ruby’s ruboty.

Why reinvent the wheel

I Love Python and I’m not good at Node.js(hubot), Ruby(Ruboty).

Err is pluggable but it’s too complex for me.

brutal is also pluggable but I don’t wont to write config file.

So I reinvent the wheel.

Architecture

Message flow.

                            +--[handler a]--+
                            |               |
[chat service]-->[adapter]--+--[handler b]--+--[adapter]-->[chat service]
                            |               |
                            +--[handler c]--+

Adapter

Adapter is interface of chat services receive message and send message to chat service.

Robo includes two adapters.

• shell

• Slack

Handler

Handler provides various behaviors to your robot.

from robo.decorators import cmd

class Ping(object):
    @cmd(regex=r'^ping', description='')
    def pong(self, message, **kwargs):
        return 'pong'

This handler matches message ping and return pong to chat service.
