Abhijeet Kaur 92d2981726 contrib bots: Edit code for uniformity. 
Add one function (get_bot_botname_response()) that generates response
from the given input and replies back to the handle_message with the final
content of response to be sent. Also add code to bots(except followup) to
reply to private messages along with stream messages.

Converter bot

This bot allows users to perform conversions for various measurement units.

Usage

Run this bot as described in here.

Use this bot with the following command

@convert <number> <unit_from> <unit_to>

This will convert number, given in the unit unit_from, to the unit unit_to and print the result.

  • number can be any floating-point number, e.g. 12, 13.05, 0.002.
  • unit_from and unit_to are two units from the following table in the same category.
  • unit_from and unit_to can be preceded by these prefixes.

Supported units

Usage examples

Message Response
@convert 12 celsius fahrenheit 12.0 celsius = 53.600054 fahrenheit
@convert 0.002 kilomile millimeter 0.002 kilomile = 3218688.0 millimeter
`@convert 31.5 square-mile ha 31.5 square-mile = 8158.4625 ha
@convert 56 g lb 56.0 g = 0.12345887 lb

Notes

  • You can use multiple @convert statements in a message, the response will look accordingly: multiple-converts

  • Enter @convert help to display a quick overview of the converter's functionality.

  • For bits and bytes, the prefixes change the figure differently: 1 kilobyte is 1024 bytes, 1 megabyte is 1048576 bytes, etc.
