Hi guys,

I am trying to get the rocketchat backend to work with a jira bot https://github.com/rawouter/err-jira

However when a message is passed I get a value error

I am really new to errbot and dont mind contributing to the fix looks like this exception is raised on line of 1287 of the plugin however it is manually set to None in the send function on line 1254. im not really sure whats going on to be honest. Any pointers here would be appreciated

Looks like you're using Errbot's send_card() function. That functionality isn't implemented. I have meant to look into it myself, but haven't had time to look at it yet.

Without it, sending media with this bot won't work. :disappointed:

[HackyPenguin]

:( any idea when you will get a chance? if you can point me to resources on how you would go about implementing it ill give it a shot.

[torgeirl]

@HackyPenguin: I would start with how it's done for the Slack backend. I might be able to take a quick look later this week, not sure.

[HackyPenguin]

@torgeirl I have had a quick look and looks abit beyond me at the moment with lack of errbot knowledge. if you could take a look when you get a chance would be massively appreciated :D

[HackyPenguin]

hey @torgeirl you had a chance to look at this? issue seems to occur even if im not using send.card and just using send?

This simple botcmd

@botcmd
def jira(self, msg args):
    "say hello and confirm jira plugin is loaded"
    send(in_reply_to=Message.frm, text="this is a test reponse")

returns the same value error
