Botkit default template 1st Release (master)

Features summary, check the README for details

• configuration through environment variables or hard-coded values in the .env file
• skills: organize your bot behaviours by placing 'commands', 'conversations' and 'events' in the skills directory
• user experience: the template comes with ready-to-use skills: a 'welcome' invite, as well as 'help' and 'fallback' commands.
• healthcheck: easily check that everything goes well by hitting the ping endpoint automatically exposed.
• metadata: expose extra info via command and on a public address so that Spark users can inquire on Bot Author / Legal mentions / Healthcheck endpoint...
• mentions: the appendMention utility function helps Spark users remind to mention the bot in Group spaces.
• popular cloud providers: the bot self-configures when run on Glitch, and also Heroku (if dyno-metadata are installed for Heroku).

Plugin Architecture 1st Release

The plugin architecture brings extra flexibility to easily add middlewares and extensions, without breaking the code structure of the botkit 'bot.js' file, making it easier to share code among botkit projects.
