Hoi Wavers ;] i want to take a piece of your time to introduce FEEDPROVIDER to you, my new bot. It is build on all the previous bots i made, most of the time i spend iterating my code and creating bot after bot until things get stable and things start to fall into place. First thing i needed to get correct is the bot name, which is very difficult to find. But i found it, and FEEDPROVIDER is its name ;] (i tend to write bot name in uppercase, don't know why that is). I'm proud of the name as it is what this bot is supposed to do, providing feeds into waves and jabber accounts.
FEEDPROVIDER works by creating a new wave and adding [email protected] to it. On addition the bot bot will insert a gadget in the root blip in which you can enter the url of your feed. We need a name of the url as well, you can just choose one, as long as it doesn't exist yet. The name is used for further manipulation of the feed, things like setting markup or selecting the tags you want to display. You can start recieving jabber updates of your feed by using this name. See http://feedprovider.appspot.com/docs/plugins/commonplugs/hubbub.html for documentation over the hubbub plugin. There is a installer available that creates the new wave and adding of the bot with a click of a button, you can find it here: https://wave.google.com/wave/#restored:wave:googlewave.com!w%252B-sIsArZkmo If you want to give feedback on any problems you find please do so in that wave as the bot isn't perfect yet and i can used every piece of advise on how to make it better ;] As to the 0.2.1 release, it's available on googlecode, pypi, freshmeat and softpedia. The code makes it easy for you to develop plugins for FEEDPROVIDER as well as uploading your own cloned bots to the Google Application Engine. I made the code available under MIT license, so its free and you don't have to fear reading any of my code.
