If you have a coding question, you can use stackoverflow with the tag 'errbot' and 'python'
def myoldcmd(..): pass
def newcmd(...): self.myoldcmd(...)
In my case the long command name has to accept args/options, so the short alias (or the stub method) needs to be declared so that it can accept those options too.
e.g. this is how I imagine I'd define a stub:
@arg_botcmd("-u", "--user", type=str, help=user name")
@arg_botcmd("-p", "--project", type=str, help="project name")
def pagerduty_status(self, msg, project=None, user=None):
......
@arg_botcmd("-u", "--user", type=str, help=user name")
@arg_botcmd("-p", "--project", type=str, help="project name")
def pd_status(self, msg, project=None, user=None):
self._bot._execute_and_send(cmd="pagerduty_status", args=...)which looks like a lot of duplication.
From a quick view at the Alias plugin I'm not sure the !alias command supports flags with arbitrary values.
I tried something like
pd_status = pagerduty_statusbut that did not seem to work.
Versions are on pypi.org and dockerhub.
I'm in favour of keeping slackv3 outside of the errbot core repo so the backend developers can remain autonomous and apply fixes/features on different release cycles to the core.
If we must merge slackv3 for other reasons, I'd like to see the other backends merge into the core also for consistency sake, at least mattermost and discord (gitter perhaps).
A couple of other backends that'd be good to have in the errbot.io organisation would be MSTeam, Matrix and Keybase (I'm not sure if such a backend would fit with Errbot's architecture).

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'graphlib'graphlib-backport==1.0.3 was missing from the virtualenv. I'm not sure how pip handles dependency resolution when processing wheels, but my current guess is the errbot wheel was built on a version > 3.9 so graphlib-backport wasn't included. I'll need to dig into how all this works under the hood.
py37.py38 built using py3.7 or py3.8 and another tagged with py39.py310 built using py3.9 or py3.10. I'm not sure if the original wheel tagged with py3 would need to be taken down or if pip will select the most specific version first.

I'm stuck trying to post the payload received by a webhook function to a Mattermost channel. This is what my webhook function looks like:
@webhook
def github_issues(self, payload):
self.log.debug(repr(payload))
return(payload)Expected Outcome: I expect that return(payload) should forward the received payload to the Mattermost channels I've added my bot to. My bot account currently sits in two Mattermost channels
How it's Working Out: The payload is reaching the function, but it's not being forwarded to the channels I've added the bot to.
Is there anything I need to fix in the function or anywhere to make this arrangement work?
send() to push data to the backend. This is my updated function just in case someone else needs it: @webhook
def github_issues(self, payload):
for room in self.rooms():
self.send(
self.build_identifier(f"~{room.name}"),
'Title: Issue {0}!\n Issue URL: {1}'.format(payload['action'], payload['issue']['url']),
)Just tested a clean install of errbot 6.1.9 using a py37 virtualenv and it works as expected. Tested under py38, it fails.

Yes, as part of your build process you can clone the repo and put it in the plugins directory.
You could also setup the server to use a private key/token that accesses your repo too
