Haikubot for Slack

Build Status

Purpose

To increase your team's productivity, I highly recommend having a requirement that every pull-request is accompanied by a haiku that describes the PR or your mood when developing the PR.

This bot takes all your pull-request haikus that might be spread over several repositories and posts them to your team's slack! So everyone can enjoy your PR haikus.

PS: Failure to supply an adequate haiku (not 5-7-5 syllables, a lot of filler words, etc.) should result in cake punishment (getting a cake/snack for the entire team).

Commands

Haikus are posted directly to the channel configured, but there are also some commands that can be used at any time. All commands are triggered by @botname (as configured).

  • show [haiku ID], example: @botname show #3

    This will post a single haiku by that ID.

  • show from [optional amount] [name], example: @botname show from Danny or @botname show from 5 Danny

    This will post all haikus from that user up to the given amount, the default amount is 3.

  • show last

    Posts the newest haiku.

  • stats top [optional amount], example: @botname stats top

    Posts how many haikus each contributor has posted, default is every user. Limit to e.g. top 3 with @botname stats top 3

  • export, example: @botname export [optional name]

    Will post a snippet of all haikus in plaintext, use with @botname export Danny to export only haikus by single contributor.

Consult commands.py for full list of commands.

Fork it!

Feel free to play around with it! If you're not using Stash you can easily change it to poll any VCS that has a REST-API, of course this will require changing the parsing of the JSON a bit.

Feel free to submit pull requests! This bot has been a fun learning experince so the code is a bit messy.
