I'm not thrilled with the `replace` error handler losing information
if the logfile contains invalid UTF-8 for some reason; but that sure
beats a UnicodeDecodeError, and for this script I can't quite be
bothered to run the rather tricky riddle trail that Python 3 makes it
to pass arbitrary byte data through layers of ordinary text processing.
If a user provides both the name and the path to the bot
as input then we either will have to chose one of them
or alert the user to check the input. Selecting the latter
by sending an error message to the user.
Very few bots like followup bot directly call 'send_message'
function from the bot code. Since ExternalBotHandler class is
mocked, we'll have to mock 'send_message' function as well.
Added dummy field value of 'sender_email' for the message to be
as followup bot requires that field while processing
the message.
Since send_message is directly called from a specific bot's code,
so it can be sent to a different stream or under a different topic
than that of the incoming message. So, print the entire message
along with stream name.
A bot calling 'send_reply' function will reply to the incoming
message in the same stream under the same topic. So, only printing
bot's response message content for that.
This eliminates the need to setup dev environment and to
create a bot, setup zuliprc file, subscribe the bot to the
stream in order to try out a bot.
Manual command get-bot-output gives the bots response content
directly.
When testing bots with state and using type="all", it is expected that
the passed-in state will be applied for each source individually.
This commit moves away from alternating between sources for each test,
to running all the tests on each source with a copy of state_handler.
Previously, if you didn't specify a list of `event_types` in either `register` or `call_on_each_event`, you'd get an exception due to the invalid event format.
This fixes#86.
This is done so that Embedded bot system can also make use of
this function directly, as only id is needed in this function.
Tweaked by tabbott to have a cleaner interface and simpler
documentation.
