DCBot is a Direct Connect bot written in Ruby. It has an extensible plugin architecture backed by a database and comes with a plugin to manage requests.
- RubyGems
- ActiveRecord
- EventMachine
- libbz2
Edit dcbot_example.conf, rename it to dcbot.conf, and then run dcbot.rb. Typing text into standard input will send it as messages to hub chat.
At this time, only one hub connection is supported. It should be easy to add multiple hubs, but I didn't need it and I wasn't sure how to handle keyboard input in that case.
Also, please note that this is a fairly quick and dirty bot, so don't be surprised if some of the architecture is suboptimal.
