2. How it works
• During the day, the IRC bot asks you what
you’ve done
• You say !done what you did
• At the end of the day, everyone gets an email
with what everyone has done
> !done squashed some bugs
3. !done commands
> !done pushed to production
> !todo send out notification emails
> !hero caseorganic for bringing
Legos!
> !blocking loud noises from
construction work
4. At the end of the
day, everyone gets
an email with what
everyone has !done
> !done
squashed some
bugs
Daily Email!
8. Inline Documentation
• If a group doesn’t use one of the features
(such as !hero) then that email contains a tip
at the bottom with a suggestion!
9. Building IRC Bots
Use ZenIRC Bot!
• Great framework for building bots!
• github.com/zenirc
Benefits
• Modular – service oriented
• Can write in any language and run under the
same bot
• Uses Redis PubSub to pass message between the
different frameworks
