A plugin-based bot framework in Ruby for Wikia's Special:Chat extension. Created by Sactage.
If you want to create a PR or open an issue here on GitHub, that is fine (and most definitely encouraged!) - however, please ping me with @sactage somewhere in your issue/PR description. GitHub unfortunately does not provide a way for me to get notifications of new PRs/issues via e-mail, unless I am pinged with @sactage. Also, while not required, it would be helpful to me if you left your Wikia username so I can contact you further if need be.
To run a bot using this framework, Ruby 2.1+ is expected. I develop on the latest stable version (2.1.3 at the time of writing), and generally will not accommodate any problems that are only affect older versions of Ruby.
Note: The framework does not currently work on Windows with Ruby 2.1.3 due to an issue with mediawiki-gateway and the ffi gem.
This framework requires HTTParty and mediawiki-gateway. You can install them both with [sudo] gem install httparty mediawiki-gateway.
Please follow the format outlined in main.sample.rb and config.sample.yml to setup a working bot. The Wikia account used to connect to chat will not need bot rights, but if you're using a logging plugin or otherwise editing it will be useful.
The plugin system for this bot is heavily inspired by that of Cinch, albeit very watered down and less useful. See the example plugins for ideas on how to make your own.
The Auto_tube plugin requires the iso8601 gem, and a Youtube API key - see Youtube Data API.
