This is a simple bot that links Hipchat with Meetspace Video chat

This is my first attempt at writing a non-trivial GO program as well as using Docker for deployment.

The deployment artifact is a GO binary that is run from a docker container. To help keep the container size to a minimum I'm using a statically linked binary by disabling cgo and rebuilding all dependencies as well with cgo disabled. I would have used "FROM scratch" but needed environment variables. More Infomation

If you want to run it outside of Docker, then within Releases there is the latest stable go binary that is compiled to run on Linux.

You can run in Docker with:

docker run -p 80:8081 -d --name msb-1 -e HIPCHAT_API_TOKEN="" -e MEETSPACE_API_TOKEN="" davyj0nes/meetspacebot"

There is also a helper script for running on remote machine. For testing I am just using a basic AWS EC2 instance with Docker installed.

1. Declare Environment variables or change in deploy script
2. Run ./deploy deploy

Please follow this guide: https://blog.hipchat.com/2015/02/11/build-your-own-integration-with-hipchat/

• For the Slash command, it needs to be set as "/meetspace"
• For the url, it needs to follow this schema: "/api/v0/hipchat"

To help with development while the Meetspace API is being added, there is a simple static version of the return data. To run if you can use the following:

sudo docker run --restart=unless-stopped -p 8080:8080 -d --name demo-api davyj0nes/meetspacedemoapi

The Bot requires the following environment variables to be set:

• HIPCHAT_API_TOKEN - This is the Hipchat API token. You can generate one from here
• MEETSPACE_API_TOKEN - This is the API token for meetspace.
• MEETSPACE_API_HOST - host of the Meetspace API. When running Demo API, this will need to be changed.
• MEETSPACEBOT_TEST - Set to "true" if you want to use local Demo API Container

This package was made for personal use but would like to add the following in the future. Any contributions are welcome - Just open a PR.

• Use docker compose/swarm or Kubernetes for deployment rather than bash script
• Post message's as Cards
• Slack Support
• Deeper integration with HipChat and Slack
