This is a simple Zulip bot that converts a Zulip conversation into an event context. People can then use simple commands to rsvp to an event, set the hour, time, place, and easily ping every person who RSVP'ed.
- Make your pull requests to the
devbranch - Write tests for any new command or feature introduced
- Make sure the requirements.txt file is kept up to date
- Make sure any new messages that the bot sends publicly or privately follow the RC Social Rules. It takes a village, people!
- New features are TOTALLY AWESOME, but RSVPBot has a few open issues you can take a look at if you want to get familiarized with the code or you're looking for ideas on how to contribute.

First, make sure python requirements are installed:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Then, to run the bot:
python bot.py
RSVPBot stores a mapping of email addresses to names, which is updated every time a
realm_user event is received. Since rsvp responses are stored by email address, this
mapping is used to convert the email addresses into names for commands like rsvp ping
and rsvp summary. If running this bot for the first time, you can run
python zulip_users.py
which will download all users/email addresses from zulip and populate the json file dictionary. This command is safe to run multiple times.
