This adds support to check and raise a BadRequest when either the
configuration of bot couldn't be found or the BotHandler code of bot
couldn't be fetched. There can be cases where flaskbotrc contains config
details of a bot, but the user hasn't added it's handler class code. This
fixes server to handle such cases, by reporting it to user.
This also fixes the response of bot server to make it possible to skip
the response message.
Since we want our bots to be both python 2 and python 3 compatible,
we use six to make up for both of them and run the bot smoothly.
'http.client' was basically used for error-handling by the author
of the bot, urllib errors can be handled by the urllib itself. So,
using this for simplicity.
urllib.request.urlopen raises URLError on protocol errors.
Instead of discovering unit tests using loader.discover() by passing
it a set of starting and top level directories, we now discover
unit tests by loading them from specific test module objects. This
makes it easier to include and exclude specific bots from testing.
The zulip-run-bot script now supports passing in a --path-to-bot
option. This allows users to specify the path to the source file
for their own custom bots, the first step towards being able to
support out-of-tree bots.
To run an existing bot in the zulip_bots package, just passing in
the name of the bot should suffice.
There is no library as 'http.bot_handler'.
'http.client' is what the author of this bots initially wrote.
Searching through the git history shows that someone mistakenly
replaced 'client' with 'bot_handler' here.
get_config_info function in 'ExternalBotHandler' class was
using 2 undefined variables, which wasn't allowing bots to
access information from config file.
Fixed it, bots with api key working now.
Previously, the annotation for the (now removed)send-reply
function was also wrong, as "send-message" function of
EmbeddedBotHandler class does not return any value, contrary
to "Dict[str, Any]" as specified by the funtion.
This is done as a follow up for zulip/zulip#5842.
In order to keep all three packages (zulip, zulip_bots,
zulip_botserver) in the same repo, all package files must now
be nested one level deeper.
For instance, python-zulip-api/zulip_bots/zulip_bots/bots/, instead
of python-zulip-api/zulip_bots/bots/.
tools/server_lib contains files copied as-is, or with minor
modifications, from the zulip/zulip repository when the api
code was split into this separate repository.
