I know what you are thinking...

##[fit]What about #[fit]Chipotle?

Maybe not everyone... just Rick

##[fit] But why not just write a script?

A non-chat script?

ChatOps is about communication

It gives your entire team insight into whats been run

It gives other team members the ability to run scripts

Anatomy of a Script

It's just Node

module.exports = function(robot) {
    robot.respond(/is it (weekend|holiday)\s?\?/i, function(msg){
        var today = new Date();

        msg.reply(today.getDay() === 0 || today.getDay() === 6 ? "YES" : "NO");
    });
}

Most written in coffee script

module.exports = (robot) ->
  robot.respond /shake cam/i, (msg) ->
    msg.send 'http://www.shakeshack.com/camera.jpg'

Are you listening?

because Hubot is...

Hearing & Responding

robot.hear /badger/i

jonathan I don't want to badger anyone

robot.respond /open the pod bay doors/i

nick @Hubot open the pod bay doors

##Talking Back

Sending

module.exports = (robot) ->
  robot.hear /badger/i, (res) ->
    res.send "Badgers? BADGERS? WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN BADGERS"

jonathan I don't want to badger anyone Hubot Badgers? BADGERS? WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN BADGERS"

Replying

module.exports = (robot) ->
  robot.respond /open the pod bay doors/i, (res) ->
    res.reply "I'm afraid I can't let you do that."

nick @Hubot open the pod bay dooors Hubot @nick I'm afraid I can't let you do that.

Capture data

  • What if I want to open a different door?
  robot.respond /open the (.*) doors/i, (res) ->
    doorType = res.match[1]
    if doorType is "pod bay"
      res.reply "I'm afraid I can't let you do that."
    else
      res.reply "Opening #{doorType} doors"

Making JSON calls

 robot.http("https://midnight-train")
    .header('Accept', 'application/json')
    .get() (err, res, body) ->
      # error checking code here

      data = JSON.parse body
      res.send "#{data.passenger} taking midnight train going #{data.destination}"

If I only had a brain...

Hubot's brain

  • Provides in-memory key-value storage robot.brain
robot.respond /have a soda/i, (res) ->  
  sodasHad = robot.brain.get('totalSodas') * 1 or 0
  if sodasHad > 4
    res.reply "I'm too fizzy.."
  else
    res.reply 'Sure!'
    robot.brain.set 'totalSodas', sodasHad+1
robot.respond /sleep it off/i, (res) ->
  robot.brain.set 'totalSodas', 0
  msg.reply 'zzzzz'

Some other cool features

  • Restricted Access to Commands
  • XML Parsing
  • Screen Scraping (cheerio and jsdom)
  • Watch if topic changes
  • Know when someone enters or leaves a room

##How could we use Hubot?

##Ideas?

  • Deployments
  • Phonegap Builds
  • Jira Integration?
  • Time logging into jira?
