Constructor Details
#initialize(config) ⇒ Bot
Creates a new Jabber::Bot object with the specified config
Hash, which must contain jabber_id
, password
, and master
at a minimum.
You may optionally give your bot a custom name
. If name
is omitted, the username portion of jabber_id
is used instead.
You may choose to restrict a Jabber::Bot to listen only to its master(s), or make it public
.
You may optionally specify a Jabber presence
, status
, and priority
. If omitted, they each default to nil
.
By default, a Jabber::Bot has only a single command, ‘help [<command>]’, which displays a help message for the specified command, or all commands if <command> is omitted.
If you choose to make a public bot, only the commands you specify as public, as well as the default ‘help’ command, will be public.
# A minimally confiugured private bot with a single master.
bot = Jabber::Bot.new(
:jabber_id => '[email protected]',
:password => 'secret',
:master => '[email protected]'
)
# A highly configured public bot with a custom name, mutliple masters,
# Jabber presence, status, and priority.
masters = ['[email protected]', '[email protected]']
bot = Jabber::Bot.new(
:name => 'PublicBot',
:jabber_id => '[email protected]',
:password => 'secret',
:master => masters,
:is_public => true,
:presence => :chat,
:priority => 5,
:status => 'Hello, I am PublicBot.'

Instance Method Details
#add_command(command, &callback) ⇒ Object
Add a command to the bot’s repertoire.
Commands consist of a metadata Hash and a callback block. The metadata Hash must contain the command syntax
, a description
for display with the builtin ‘help’ command, and a regular expression (regex
) to detect the presence of the command in an incoming message.
The metadata Hash may optionally contain an array of command aliases. An alias
consists of an alias syntax
and regex
. Aliases allow the bot to understand command shorthands. For example, the default ‘help’ command has an alias ‘?’. Saying either ‘help’ or ‘?’ will trigger the same command callback block.
The metadata Hash may optionally contain a is_public
flag, indicating the bot should respond to anyone issuing the command, not just the bot master(s). Public commands are only truly public if the bot itself has been made public.
The specified callback block will be triggered when the bot receives a message that matches the given command regex (or an alias regex). The callback block will have access to the sender and the message text (not including the command itsef), and should either return a String response or nil
. If a callback block returns a String response, the response will be delivered to the Jabber id that issued the command.
Examples:
# Say 'puts foo' or 'p foo' and 'foo' will be written to $stdout.
# The bot will also respond with "'foo' written to $stdout."
add_command(
:syntax => 'puts <string>',
:description => 'Write something to $stdout',
:regex => /^puts\s+.+$/,
:alias => [ :syntax => 'p <string>', :regex => /^p\s+.+$/ ]
) do |sender, message|
puts "#{sender} says #{message}."
"'#{message}' written to $stdout."
end
# 'puts!' is a non-responding version of 'puts', and has two aliases,
# 'p!' and '!'
add_command(
:syntax => 'puts! <string>',
:description => 'Write something to $stdout (without response)',
:regex => /^puts!\s+.+$/,
:alias => [
{ :syntax => 'p! <string>', :regex => /^p!\s+.+$/ },
{ :syntax => '! <string>', :regex => /^!\s+/.+$/ }
]
) do |sender, message|
puts "#{sender} says #{message}."
nil
end
# 'rand' is a public command that produces a random number from 0 to 10
add_command(
:syntax => 'rand',
:description => 'Produce a random number from 0 to 10',
:regex => /^rand$/,
:is_public => true
) { rand(10).to_s }

#connect ⇒ Object
Connect the bot, making it available to accept commands. You can specify a custom startup message with the ‘:startup_message’ configuration setting.

#disconnect ⇒ Object
Disconnect the bot. Once the bot has been disconnected, there is no way to restart it by issuing a command.

otherwise.

#presence=(presence) ⇒ Object
Sets the bot presence. If you need to set more than just the presence, use presence() instead.
Available values for presence are:
* nil : online
* :chat : free for chat
* :away : away from the computer
* :dnd : do not disturb
* :xa : extended away

# File 'lib/jabber/bot.rb', line 249 def presence=(presence) presence(presence, @config[:status], @config[:priority]) end |
#priority=(priority) ⇒ Object
Set the bot priority. Priority is an integer from -127 to 127. If you need to set more than just the priority, use presence() instead.

# File 'lib/jabber/bot.rb', line 255 def priority=(priority) presence(@config[:presence], @config[:status], priority) end |
#status=(status) ⇒ Object
Set the status message. A status message is just a String, e.g. ‘I am here.’ or ‘Out to lunch.’ If you need to set more than just the status message, use presence() instead.
