# Bobbit

**bobbit** is a simple and modular *asynchronous* IRC / Slack bot written in
[Python]. The current version uses [asyncio] as its core networking and event
processing backend.

## Requirements

- [Python] 3.6+
- [PyYAML]
- [aiohttp]

## Configuration

Bobbit requires a configuration YAML file (`bobbit.yaml`) to run, which should
be in the directory specified by `config-dir` (default: `~/.config/bobbit`). An
example config file looks like this:

```
nick: "bobbit"
password:
owners:
-
host:
port: 6667
channels:
-
```

The following modules also require configuration files (in `config-dir`):

- lookup: requires `lookup.yaml`. Here's an example:

```
cool kids:
- I wish that I could be like the cool kids \\ 'Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
```

- weather: optionally reads `weather.yaml`. Here's an example:

```
default:
```

### Slack

## Execution

To start the the bot, run `bin/bobbit`:

```
$ ./bin/bobbit -h
usage: bobbit [--config-dir CONFIG_DIR] [--log-path LOG_PATH] [--debug]
[--local] [-h]

Simple Asynchronous IRC/Slack Bot

optional arguments:
--config-dir CONFIG_DIR Configuration directory (default: ~/.config/bobbit)
--log-path LOG_PATH Path to log file (default: None)
--debug Enable debug logging (default: False)
--local Enable local client (default: False)
-h, --help Show this help message and exit
```

**Note**: The *local* client (ie. `--local`) allows you to test the modules
directly in the terminal by using *standard input* rather than connecting to an
actual IRC or Slack network.

### Docker

You can also start application using docker:

Building container

```
docker build --no-cache -t 'bobbit' .
```

Running:

```
docker run -it bobbit
```

You can pass args to application directly, also you can mount your config file using docker volumes, for example:

```
docker run -v /my-config-dir:/tmp/my-config-dir bobbit --config-dir /tmp/config-dir
```

And change default user with using --env argument, for example:

```
docker run -e USER=MYFANCYUSER bobbit --config-dir /tmp/config-dir
```
