lita-hipchat
lita-hipchat is an adapter for Lita that allows you to use the robot with HipChat.
Installation
Add lita-hipchat to your Lita instance's Gemfile:
gem "lita-hipchat"
Configuration
Values for all of the following attributes can be found on the "XMPP/Jabber info" page of the account settings on the HipChat website. A JID (Jabber ID) looks like "12345_123456@chat.hipchat.com".
Required attributes
-
jid
(String) - The JID of your robot's HipChat account. Default:nil
. -
password
(String) - The password for your robot's HipChat account. Default:nil
.
Optional attributes
-
server
(String) - The HipChat Server address. Override this with the full domain of your server if using a private HipChat Server installation. Default:"chat.hipchat.com"
-
debug
(Boolean) - Iftrue
, turns on the underlying Jabber library's (xmpp4r) logger, which is fairly verbose. Default:false
. -
DEPRECATED -
rooms
(Symbol, Array) - An array of room JIDs that Lita should join upon connection. Can also be the symbol:all
, which will cause Lita to discover and join all rooms. Default:nil
(no rooms). -
muc_domain
(String) - The XMPP Multi-User Chat domain to use. Default:"conf.hipchat.com"
. -
ignore_unknown_users
(Boolean) - Messages generated through HipChat's API which don't come from a real user account will be ignored by the robot. With the default setting of false, Lita will emit a warning but the message will be dispatched to any registered handlers as usual. Default:false
.
Note: You must set the robot's name to the value shown as "Room nickname" on the XMPP settings page.
There's no need to set config.robot.mention_name
manually. The adapter will load the proper mention name from the XMPP roster upon connection.
Example
Lita.configure do |config|
config.robot.name = "Lita Bot"
config.robot.adapter = :hipchat
config.adapters.hipchat.jid = "12345_123456@chat.hipchat.com"
config.adapters.hipchat.password = "secret"
config.adapters.hipchat.debug = true
config.adapters.hipchat.rooms = :all
end
Events
-
:connected
- When the robot has connected to HipChat. No payload. -
:disconnected
- When the robot has disconnected from HipChat. No payload. -
:joined
- When the robot joins a room. Payload::room
: The String room ID that was joined. -
:parted
- When the robot parts from a room. Payload::room
: The String room ID that was parted from.
Managing rooms
To make Lita join or part from rooms, use the built-in join
and part
commands. For backwards compatibility, the rooms
configuration attribute will be supported until lita-hipchat 4.0, but you should remove it and begin using the new command instead. If the configuration attribute is set, lita-hipchat will honor its value and join those rooms instead of the ones persisted to Redis from using the new commands.
NOTE: You must be a member of the config.robot.admins
to use the build in join
and part
commands**
