# A Stupidly Simple Beanstalk -> Jabber Gateway

I've got various things that run that are written in various languages.  Some

of those languages don't have XMPP libraries available (or at least, easy to

use ones), but most have a [beanstalk](http://xph.us/software/beanstalkd/)

interface.  The ones that don't can have one very easily.

This bot sits on a beanstalk tube and waits for simple messages to arrive and

follows their instructions.  The message structure is excessively simple.

Messages will *not* be delivered if the user is offline, or the user's status

is set to `dnd` (do not disturb).

## Message Structure

    [recipient] [various text]

`recipient` may be either `status` to update the bot's status, or an arbitrary

group name.  Anyone who's on the bot's roster will receive the message unless

they've specifically ignored it.

The remaining text is what gets set as the status or delivered.

## Examples

### Setting the Bot's Status

    status Look, I have a new status now.

### Sending an IM

    problem Holy crap, something just went wrong.
