Robut::Cron

Schedule “message” posts via a cron-like interface from an XMPP/HipChat session.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'robut-cron'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install robut-cron

Usage

The ‘Chatfile’: ``` # Require your plugins here require ‘robut/storage/yaml_store’ require ‘robut/plugin/help’ require ‘robut-cron’ # Add the plugin classes to the Robut plugin list. # Plugins are handled in the order that they appear in this array. Robut::Plugin.plugins « Robut::Plugin::Help Robut::Plugin.plugins « Robut::Plugin::Cron

Configure the robut jabber connection and you’re good to go!

Robut::Connection.configure do |config| # Note that the jid must end with /bot if you don’t want robut to # spam the channel, as described by the last bullet point on this # page: https://www.hipchat.com/help/category/xmpp config.jid = ‘[email protected]/bot’ config.password = ‘xxxxx’ config.nick = ‘Odd Job’ config.room = ‘[email protected]’

# Custom @mention name config.mention_name = ‘odd’

# Some plugins require storage Robut::Storage::YamlStore.file = “.robut” config.store = Robut::Storage::YamlStore

# Add a logger if you want to debug the connection config.logger = Logger.new(STDOUT) end ```

Hmmn. Something like this from inside the chat session.

”#at_nick cron new * * * * * - will send this message on the cron schedule", "#at_nick cron list - will return the list of job ids", "#at_nick cron stop - will remove a job"
