Is acrogov a misnomer? #5

Open contolini opened 8 years ago

contolini commented 8 years ago

This script has grown to be something larger than acronym 'splaining. It's essentially a user-configurable database of phrases (not just acronyoms) and definitions.

This is exciting because the script is way more useful than it used to be. But it also means the name "acrogov" is a little confusing. I propose we rebrand it to something like "hubot-encyclopedia". Thoughts?

encyclopedia is a little grand. what about hubot-phrases or hubot-phrase-lookup?

contolini commented 8 years ago

"phrase" is a little ambiguous to me. hubot-definitions? hubot-dictionary?

higs4281 commented 8 years ago

'dictionary' is fair.

higs4281 commented 8 years ago

@contolini so do we deprecate acrogov and create a new hubot-dictionary pkg?

djdrisco commented 8 years ago

It is possible to rename a repository. Click Settings then under Repository Name type new name. I guess the benefit would be you won't have to have 2 repositories hanging out there with one repository deprecated and the new one active. Either way works.

higs4281 commented 8 years ago

It's not the repository i'm worried about; it's the npm package, which you can't rename.

contolini commented 8 years ago

@higs4281 We can either delete hubot-acrogov from npm or just leave it and publish this repo as hubot-dictionary going forward. I recommend the latter in case someone other than us has installed it.

The next steps are:

  1. Replace every instance of acrogov with dictionary in the codebase (and docs).
  2. Go into GitHub's settings and rename this repo.
  3. Publish the new package to npm.
