Note: After spending a lot of time working with node.js/coffeescript I decided to use Hubot and the project is called StatBot. I've opened this up just to show something I worked on back in the day.

Mad props to hubot. I spent a long time deciding between writing a bot in python and writing a league adapter for hubot. I decided to do it in python 1) my colleagues use python 2) I don't enjoy reading coffeescript and 3) to flex sharpen my python saw. Meteor has me writing a lot of js/cs these days.

This is my first foray into evented programming in python :D

The gist of how the bot works internally is Adapter receives a msg from a remote host Adapter uses the brain to get a user adapter uses the msg and the user to make a full Message object Adapter calls robot.receive(Message) Robot sends Message to listeners Listeners attempts to match Message, if so does callback(Response), where response is the message sent from the bot Response.send(*strings)

short term: internal storage Persistant data store !register (web account) !subscribe (join a list or something) cli

long term: listen on group chats
