Slack has become the primary method of communication amongst our members in-between events. We developed an open-source Slack bot, codename: Busy Beaver, to increase community engagement.\n\nWe released Busy Beaver on Jan 10th, 2019 at the Chicago Python `__main__` Meeting. [Slides](http://bit.ly/busy-beaver) and [video recording](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dBESR_x7Kc) from the release announcement are available online.\n\n## Features\n\n### Upcoming Events\n\nBusy Beaver integrates with Meetup API to provide details about upcoming events. Events are downloaded to the Busy Beaver database periodically.\n\nUsers are able to query using the `/busybeaver` [slash command](https://api.slack.com/slash-commands).\n\n- `/busybeaver next` shows details of the upcoming event\n- `/busybeaver events` shows details of upcoming events\n\nA periodic CRON job has been set to post the contents of `/busybeaver events` in a designed Slack channel.\n\n### GitHub Activity\n\nBusy Beaver posts daily summaries of public GitHub activity for registered users in the `#busy-beaver` channel on the [ChiPy Slack](https://chipy.slack.com/). The goal of this feature is to increase engagement by sparking conversations around GitHub activity.\n\nUsers sign up for an account by `DM`ing the bot with the phrase: `connect`. The bot requires users to sign into GitHub to ensure only authorized activity is posted in the channel.\n\n### Call For Proposals\n\nBusy Beaver posts open Call For Proposals (CFP) for your organization and upcoming Python conferences in a designated channel.\n\nNote: This feature is in beta. Please create an issue if you would like support for other conference types.\n\n### Roadmap\n\nWe are currently working on additional features to improve ChiPy community engagement. Please join the conversation in `#busy-beaver-meta` on the [ChiPy Slack](https://chipy.slack.com/).\n\n## Installing\n\n\u003ca href=\"https://slack.com/oauth/v2/authorize?response_type=code\u0026client_id=795376369155.506256439575\u0026redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fapp.busybeaverbot.com%2Fslack%2Finstallation-callback\u0026scope=app_mentions%3Aread+channels%3Ahistory+channels%3Ajoin+channels%3Aread+chat%3Awrite+commands+emoji%3Aread+groups%3Aread+im%3Ahistory+im%3Aread+im%3Awrite+mpim%3Ahistory+mpim%3Aread+mpim%3Awrite+reactions%3Aread+reactions%3Awrite+team%3Aread+usergroups%3Aread+users.profile%3Aread+users%3Aread+users%3Awrite\u0026state=gRDlCeK5MLXQHsDOXYjaf44tbewwKt\"\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\"Add to Slack\"\" height=\"40\" width=\"139\" src=\"https://platform.slack-edge.com/img/add_to_slack.png\" srcset=\"https://platform.slack-edge.com/img/add_to_slack.png 1x, https://platform.slack-edge.com/img/add_to_slack@2x.png 2x\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n\n## Contributing\n\nBusy Beaver is always looking for new contributors!
