An extensible MUC bot for XMPP.
Project description
Whistler Bot is an XMPP bot written in python using SleekXMPP [1], which is a requirement. The bot is designed to handle some commands, and it’s easy to extend.
Simple usage:
from whistler.bot import WhistlerBot bot = WhistlerBot( "myjid@myserver.com", "mypassword" ) bot.start()
The provided console script called whistler is a single bot which reply to a !ping command.
Extending bot
You can extend the bot functionalities, just see for example the code of the whistler console script. In short you can add commands creating a new class from WhistlerBot, and define new functions in the form cmd_ plus the command name, for example, to handle the command ping:
from whistler.bot import WhistlerBot
class MyBot(WhistlerBot):
def cmd_ping(self, msg, args):
return "pong"
Enjoy!
