This patch is particularly useful in the scenario that your
API key is wrong or out of date, but it's targeted more
generally at any error that `client.get_profile()` reports.
The API has aggressive retry logic for connecting to a
server, which may make sense for situation where you have
connection blips or server restarts.
When you're first connecting to the API, however, connection
failures are almost certainly a sign of misconfiguration, so
now we fail fast.
The bot lib takes advantage of this API change by catching the
ZulipError exception and exiting gracefully.
Before this commit, you would get a traceback if you supplied
a non-existent filename for your config file. Now we exit
gracefully with a useful error message.
We now require users to specify where their config file is
located, and we no longer default to ~/.zuliprc.
As part of this, we needed to make the "usage" more accurate
in the command line, which I mostly achieved by cutting out
unnecessary stuff.
Before this patch, we were reading in old coverage data every
time we ran test-main and had a .coverage file lying around.
This would cause inaccurate data when you changed code, and it
would cause crashes if you moved your working directory on the
file system.
This makes the StateHandler functional. To reduce the
number of server roundtrips when fetching/updating the
state, the entire state is fetched ocne at bot
initialization and cached. All changes are stored in the
cache and only saved externally after handle_message()
has been executed.
Fixes#141.
With this change, StateHandler.put() does only accept JSON-able
objects by default. The incrementor test tried to store the return
value of send_reply(), a non-JSON-able MockObject, in the state.
Therefore, this commits also sets functional default test return
values for send_message() and send_reply().
Finally, it fixes the tictactoe bot which relied on directly
modifying the state_ attribute.
unittest includes by default all module-level classes that inherit
from TestCase and implement at least one method starting with 'test'.
Since it doesn't provide a convenient way for excluding TestSuites,
we need to manually filter out the unwanted testing of our test base
class itself.
When invoked with search terms, twitter bot looks for these terms
in the content of a message to find out if they match. However,
Twitter can return messages that don't directly contain a search term.
This commit adds the tweeter user handle and expanded urls to the
places to look for a search term.
No bot is dependant on this module. No
future bot should be dependant on it,
since it is not a bot itself and is thus
blurring the structure of the bots dir.
