Quips server
============

A bash.org inspired quips server.

When [Wikimedia][] used [Bugzilla][] as its issue tracker, we also used the
quips functionality to store funny quotes from irc, bug reports, code reviews
and other sources. Since we have moved to [Phabricator][], this functionality
has been missed ([T73245][]). This app attempts to bring joy back to the
masses by allowing access to the former quips dataset that is now stored in an
[Elasticsearch][] index.

Wikimedia Toolforge
-------------------

This service is currently running in [Wikimedia Toolforge][] as the [bash][]
tool. It uses an [Elasticsearch][] index maintained by [stashbot][] and hosted
in Toolforge. Stashbot collects messages from various IRC channels and looks
for messages that start with `!bash`. The index was bootstrapped with a
[list of quips][] that were salvaged from the former bugzilla.wikimedia.org
server.
