Bot will accept anything

Status

The project where anything goes, as long as the code allows it.

A bot will automatically merge any PR on this repo that gets enough votes from the community. PRs can contain anything, even changes to the bot's voting code.

Getting Started

View the open Pull Requests to see what changes have been proposed
⭐ Star the repo, or else your votes won't get counted
On a pull request thread, add your vote along with a short explanation and/or feedback to the author. The string :+1: (:+1:) anywhere within the comment makes the comment count as a vote for the PR to pass; conversely, the string :-1: (:-1:) anywhere within the comment makes the comment count as a vote against the PR.

Contributing

Anyone can create a pull request, and it is greatly appreciated by the community. In order for a pull request to be accepted, the bot has requested that it meets the criteria in its Definition of Done. If you're looking for ideas, please look at ideas.md, and join us in our IRC for ideas or advice on how to implement something.

Community

Hang out with us in IRC: #botwillacceptanything on Freenode. The bot is @anythingbot on Twitter.

Running Servers

The bot runs on a 1GB DigitalOcean VPS in SF at botwillacceptanything.com without root access. Port 80 is a proxy to port 3000 via nginx.

Bot Webserver Paths

The bot has a built-in webserver for monitoring its current state.

Running the bot locally to test changes

Fork this repo.
Get yourself an OAuth token for github at https://github.com/settings/tokens/new. (TODO what scopes are required?)
Copy config.template.js -> config.js and modify accordingly.
Disable any items in the mocks section that you would like to function normally.

$ cp config.template.js config.js
$ vim config.js
$ cat config.js
(function () {
    'use strict';

    module.exports = {
        webserver: {
            port: 3000
        },
        user: "YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME",
        repo: "botwillacceptanything",
        githubAuth: {
            type: "oauth",
            token: "YOUR_OAUTH_TOKEN"
        },
        mocks: {
            twitter: true,
        },
    };
}());

(Optional) Set up GitHub Webhooks by following the next section.
Run npm install to install dependencies.
Run node main.js to start the bot.

Setting up GitHub Webhooks

Go to your repository settings, and click Webhooks & Services
Create a new webhook with the following settings:

Payload URL: Externally accessible address with a path of /webhook/github
- http://example.com:3000/webhook/github
Content type: application/json
Secret: Copy this secret. It is used in the config.
Which events: Send me everything.

Add the Webhook Secret into config.js like this:

exports.githubAuth.webhookSecret = 'rsvz9ytsjMpYfKW8CO8SQPSoxiJsVb03';
