Bot Mentions Not Working #27

Closed btotharye closed 7 years ago

btotharye commented 7 years ago

Seems like actually mentioning at the bot doesn't work. You have to do !cmd, is this expected? Seems like from Readme its a known issue so I will try to help fix it.

I don't mind going through and helping fix it just wasn't sure if I was missing something, doesn't appear to happen on my slack version of the bot.

Looks like cause of how mattermost does it, it doesn't actually treat it like a mention per say but just does a @nameofbot

The issue in the readme is regarding channelmentions like ~town-square (if you do want to do something about it, go ahead :-D ;-) ) Mhh I don't have a slack setup so I can't really check if this is the case. Having a quick look at your config (assuming your errbot-slack repository is the one you say is working) https://github.com/btotharye/errbot-slack/blob/6dd50221e21c46be727e772a8c65e3048e6a2bb7/config.py#L66

You explicitly say BOT_ALT_PREFIXES = ('@geekbot',) which would explain why the @ works. If you do the same for mattermost, it should work too. I assume, if you remove this line from your slack config.py, it stops working, too.
