@ferventcoder okay, I am going to hold my hands up and say that I have never used IRC before. Is there something that I need to do in order to create the IRC end of this plugin? Or can I just set up all those variables, and things will just start working?

[ferventcoder]

Here are the variables you will need:

heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_SERVER="chat.freenode.net"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_USESSL="true"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_PORT=6697
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_ROOMS="#chocolatey"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_NICK="chocobot"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_UNFLOOD="true"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_SERVER_FAKE_SSL="true"
heroku config:add HUBOT_IRC_PRIVATE="true"

I'll probably want to set up a nickserv account and get you those details privately.

@ferventcoder I have added all of the above configuration variables, so chocobot should now have everything it needs. I just need to add the extension now.

@ferventcoder let me know how you get on with the IRC side of things, and whether this issue can be closed.

[ferventcoder]

So we have everything working except chocobot won't join the room for some odd reason. Can you turn off HUBOT_IRC_PRIVATE for now?

[ferventcoder]

And by turn off you need to set it to null, false will have the same effect (per the documentation of set it to anything).

Done, deploying now

Let's rename to choco-bot for IRC only. Leave the private thing unset.

[ferventcoder]

still not quite right.

[ferventcoder]

Looks like we didn't actually join the network (based on that someone elses bot with same name).

:crying_cat_face: let me know if you have any other things you want me to try.

I've also set the HUBOT_ADAPTER variable to "gitter2" on the gitter heroku, so no worries on update.
