OpenStack PTG Bot
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
ptgbot is the bot that PTG room moderators use to surface what's
|
|
currently happening at the event. Room operators send messages to
|
|
the bot, like::
|
|
|
|
#swift now discussing ring balancing
|
|
|
|
and from that information the bot builds a static webpage with discussion
|
|
topics currently discussed ("now") and an indicative set of discussion
|
|
topics coming up next ("next"). It also merges information from the
|
|
reservable rooms ethercalc in order to produce a single, static,
|
|
mobile-friendly page.
|
|
|
|
Room operators commands
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
You have to have voice in the channel (+v) to send commands to the ptgbot.
|
|
Commands follow the following format::
|
|
|
|
#ROOMNAME [now|next] TOPIC
|
|
|
|
Please note that:
|
|
|
|
* There can only be one "now" topic at a time. If multiple topics are
|
|
discussed at the same time in various corners of the room, they should
|
|
all be specified in a single "now" command.
|
|
|
|
* In order to ensure that information is current, entering a "now" command
|
|
wipes out any "next" entry for the same room. You might want to refresh
|
|
those after entering a "now" topic.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
#swift now discussing ring placement
|
|
#swift next at 2pm we plan to discuss #glance support
|
|
#swift next around 3pm we plan to cover cold storage features
|
|
...
|
|
#swift now discussing #glance support, come over!
|
|
#swift next at 3pm we plan to cover cold storage features
|
|
|
|
You can also remove all entries related to your room by issuing the following
|
|
command::
|
|
|
|
#ROOMNAME clean
|
|
|
|
|
|
Admin commands
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
You have to ve a channel operator (+o) to use admin commands.
|
|
|
|
~list
|
|

|
|
|
|
~add ROOM [ROOM..]
|

Local testing
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Copy config.json.sample to config.json::
|
|
|
|
cp config.json.sample config.json
|
|
|
|
Edit config.json contents, for example::
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"irc_nick": "ptgbot",
|
|
"irc_server": "irc.freenode.net",
|
|
"irc_port": 6667,
|
|
"irc_channel": "#testptg",
|
|
"db_filename": "html/ptg.json",
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
In one terminal, run the bot::
|
|
|
|
tox -evenv -- ptgbot -d config.json
|
|
|
|
Join that channel and give a command to the bot::
|
|
|
|
#swift now discussing ring placement
|
|
|
|
(note, the bot currently only takes commands from Freenode identified users)
|
|
|
|
In another terminal, start the webserver::
|
|
|
|
cd html && python -m SimpleHTTPServer
|
|
|
|
Open the web page in a web browser: http://127.0.0.1:8000/ptg.html
