penfold is a chat bot to assist the daily activities of a development team that is built on the Hubot framework.

You can start penfold locally by running:

% bin/hubot

You'll see some start up output and a prompt:

[Sat Feb 28 2015 12:38:27 GMT+0000 (GMT)] INFO Using default redis on localhost:6379
penfold>

Then you can interact with penfold by typing penfold help.

penfold> penfold help
penfold standup -- Display latest reports from the team members
penfold standup <standup report> -- record daily standup
...

Requires some environment variables to be set to work. See penfold.ts for configuration information.

When running locally setting MONGODB_HOST should be enough depending on the configuration for your local mongo installation.

Example using docker based mongodb:

docker run -p 27017:27017 -d mongo
export MONGODB_HOST=localhost
bin/hubot

Also notice the environment variables required by the adapter. By default penfold uses mattermost and the configuration information for mattermost adapter can be found in here

Deployment requires kedge tool. See kedge project for getting started.

Before running the project correct the values on configmap.k.yml and penfold.k.yml to be compatible with your environment.

Use oc or kubectl to connect to your cluster and create a project.

Run the following command to create necessary files

cd kedge
kedge apply -f pvc.k.yml -f secret.k.yml -f configmap.k.yml -f mongodb.k.yml -f penfold.k.yml
