Steve Howell 0fd093a698 bots: Allow users to supply ZULIP_API_KEY, etc.
This will make it easier to run standalone
bots in containers like Heroku that prefer
env-var-style configuration.

For now this is undocumented, but we should
update the server docs once a few folks have
tried it out.

(The history behind requiring the config file
is that I wanted to keep things simple and
be strongly opinionated about how you run
bots, so that the docs didn't overwhelm folks,
but this use case has come up more frequently.)

Zulip API

Build status Coverage status

This repository contains the source code for Zulip's PyPI packages:

The source code is written in Python 3.

Development

This is part of the Zulip open source project; see the contributing guide and commit guidelines.

  1. Fork and clone the Git repo: git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/python-zulip-api.git

  2. Make sure you have pip and virtualenv installed.

  3. cd into the repository cloned earlier: cd python-zulip-api

  4. Run:

    python3 ./tools/provision
    

    This sets up a virtual Python environment in zulip-api-py<your_python_version>-venv, where <your_python_version> is your default version of Python. If you would like to specify a different Python version, run

    python3 ./tools/provision -p <path_to_your_python_version>
    
  5. If that succeeds, it will end with printing the following command:

    source /.../python-zulip-api/.../activate
    

    You can run this command to enter the virtual environment. You'll want to run this in each new shell before running commands from python-zulip-api.

  6. Once you've entered the virtualenv, you should see something like this on the terminal:

    (zulip-api-py3-venv) user@pc ~/python-zulip-api $
    

    You should now be able to run any commands/tests/etc. in this virtual environment.

Running tests

To run the tests for

  • zulip: run ./tools/test-zulip

  • zulip_bots: run ./tools/test-lib && ./tools/test-bots

  • zulip_botserver: run ./tools/test-botserver

To run the linter, type:

./tools/lint

To check the type annotations, run:

./tools/run-mypy
