Discourse Frotz 🧙

[merefield (Robert)]

I dusted this off to find that the bot didn’t work any more …

… it does now! COMPATIBILITY: sidekiq now requires strict JSON arguments · merefield/discourse-frotz@1340b17 (github.com)

I was googling for Frotz and surprised to see a discourse extension! Severe productivity decline ahead!

[merefield (Robert)]

Thanks for your interest.

I’ll be a little surprised if it still works

The code here became the initial start to Chatbot, but that quickly diverged.

I’ve been meaning to backport the ability to work in Chat but I’ve not been able to prioritise it. That and the fact that Chat doesn’t (edit: fully) support markdown and BBCode makes it a bit less attractive at this stage.

@merefield

Chat doesn’t support markdown

It does. Partly any way. Quotes from chat doesn’t support at all (a situation that bugs me big time, but that is off topic here)

Edit: headers… I forgot those

[merefield (Robert)]

Ah good point, support is now not bad. But the BBCode thing? I guess I should sometimes check these things before making statements!

[Jagster (Jakke Lehtonen)]

That I don’t know. I use bbcode very rarely.
