Automatic out-of-office reports #115

Closed mgwalker closed 7 years ago

mgwalker commented 7 years ago

Users can set themselves out-of-office to have the bot automatically report on their behalf. The following is from the new documentation:


If you know you'll be out of the office for a few days and would like the bot to automatically post standups on your behalf while you're away, you can tell it you'll be gone. To do that, you can either tell the bot in the channel that you want to automatically report in:

@standup-bot I'll be out of the office for 3 days

Or you can send the bot a DM and tell it which channel to automatically report in:

#channel out of the office for 3 days

The bot understands over variations of these messages. Here are some examples:

@standup-bot out of office 3 days
@standup-bot out of office 3
@standup-bot ooo 3
