BYOB (Build your own bot) - Build a matrix bot that acts on !commands
Usage
Here is a minimal example on how to build a custom bot that replies to a message "!ping" with "pong". After starting it, you can invite it to any matrix room and it will join.
package main
import "github.com/pinpox/matrix-bot"
// PingPongBot is a custom bot that will reply to !ping with "pong"
type PingPongBot struct {
*matrixbot.MatrixBot
}
func main() {
pass := "supersecretpass"
user := "myawesomebot"
bot, err := matrixbot.NewMatrixBot(user, pass)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
mypingPongBot := PingPongBot{bot}
// Register a command like this
bot.RegisterCommand("!ping", 0, mypingPongBot.handlePing)
for {
//Loop forever. If you don't have anything that keeps running, the bot will exit.
}
}
// Handles the !ping message
func (mybot *PingPongBot) handlePing(message, room, sender string) {
mybot.SendToRoom(room, "pong!")
}
