@medoix could you paste in the full output? Can't replicate on my machine.

@medoix also your full hippybot.conf might be handy too, ta!

Might be worth noting that i am running this using virtualenv on ubuntu it works if i change hello_world to rot13 so im really confused.

from hippybot.

@medoix the only thing I can see that might be iffy is the fact your namespace paths in plugins.load config point to hcbot rather than hippybot if you're putting them in hippybot/plugins/ rather than in an importable module named hcbot in your PYTHON_PATH.

from hippybot.

ahh sorry i posted the wrong config (trying different things) the correct config says hippybot in the plugin path.

from hippybot.

Aha. That makes sense. Can you post the contents of hello_world.py? Only other thing the module might fail to load is if it fails to compile. I know you said it was just the contents of the example from the readme, but I just copied it in tried it myself and it was fine.

hello_world.py located in /data/programs/hippbot/hippybot/hippybot/plugins

# hello_world.py
from hippybot.decorators import botcmd, directcmd
class Plugin(object):
    global_commands = ['hello_world']
    command_aliases = {'hi!': 'hello'}
    @botcmd
    def hello_world(self, mess, args):
        return u'Hello world!'
    @directcmd
    def hello(self, mess, args):
        return u'Well hello there..'

from hippybot.

Ah, I'd actually re-tested the class based example, however changing "hcbot" back to "hippybot":

from hippybot.decorators import directcmd

@directcmd
def hello_world(bot, mess, args):
    return u'Hello world!'

It still works. :-/

from hippybot.

It is all hippybot now, i actually deleted everything and just started fresh, i did have it working at one point but now im testing again and it just fails to load the hello_world plugin. I have it running (not really running) on an EC2 instance if you like i can give you access but im at a loss as to what is actually happening.
