This is exactly why Hubot was created in the first place. An excerpt from the original project README:
This is Hubot, a Campfire chat bot in node.js.
The goal is to make common systems stuff seem less like black magic by turning frequently performed manual processes into simple commands and making those interactions visible to the team via Campfire. Benefits:
• Fast access to server logs and machine information when something goes wrong.
• Everyone sees how common tasks are performed.
• Interactions are logged and available in campfire transcripts.
• Let's us do stuff from the phone with Ember when AFK.
• Can paste squirrel pics and stuff like that.
For new people starting at GitHub, they can kind of just lurk in the chat room for a couple days to get a feel for how most types of things are done because people are issuing Hubot commands all the time.
It's really powerful. Way more powerful than we suspected.
EDIT: Formatting.
- ethank 15y agoHow do you do the "who's here?" in hubbot? of all the things when I'm managing teams, knowing physical locations of people was always the pain.

- askedrelic 15y agoEver going to release the source for hubot? I just digging through github for campfire bots and would love another repo to pull idea from!
- sifi 15y agoSo I'm guessing that you are giving your bot a pub/priv key to get stats?
