This cookbook creates a Python venv, installs and configures slackbot, and creates and starts a service.

The following attributes are used (see attributes/default.rb for default values):

• node['slackbot']['api_token'] - Slack API token
• node['slackbot']['python_ver'] - version of Python (2 or 3)
• node['slackbot']['target_dir'] - base directory for slackbot
• node['slackbot']['user'] - user owner of files and service
• node['slackbot']['group'] - group owner of files
• node['slackbot']['plugins'] - list of plugins to load

Includes the venv, config, and service recipes.

Installs system packages for Python, creates a virtual environment, and installs slackbot into the virtualenv.

Generates slackbot_settings.py and bot.py using the attribute data.

Creates, enables, and starts a slackbot system service.

cookstyle linting, foodcritic syntax checking, and rspec unit tests can be invoked via chef exec delivery local verify.

Test kitchen is configured for AWS. To use, you'll need working AWS credentials (most easily configured via aws cli) and a .kitchen.local.yml:

driver:
  aws_ssh_key_id: key_id
  region: us-west-2
  availability_zone: b
  security_group_ids: ["sg-12345abcd"]

Test kitchen will work as normal with kitchen build, kitchen converge, and kitchen verify to run InSpec tests. Alternately, systems with Docker can use the dokken configuration with export KITCHEN_LOCAL_YAML=.kitchen.dokken.yml. No additional configuration should be required.
