How to refer to user with @ notation

[shubhamitc]

I want to configure Hipchat to support Hubot a robot system works for collaborator tools. In order for that to work messages sent by backend monitoring system should address to user Hubot.

With this api i am not able to send message to user. using '@' does not work with send_msg api.

My Code,

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'hipchat'
require 'trollop'

module HipChat`
  class NotifyRoomCli 
    def initialize(api_token, room_name, msg, options={})
      defaults = { hipchat_options: {api_version: 'v2',server_url: 'https://api.hipchat.com'}, msg_options: {:notify => true}, excluded_envs: [], msg_prefix: ''}
      options = defaults.merge(options)
      @api_token = api_token
      @room_name = room_name
      @msg = msg
      @hipchat_options = options[:hipchat_options]
      @msg_options = options[:msg_options]
      @msg_prefix = options[:msg_prefix]
      @excluded_envs = options[:excluded_envs]
      @to_user=options[:name]
      case 
      when options[:alerttype].match(/warning/i)
        @color = 'yellow'
      when options[:alerttype].match(/critical/i)
        @color = 'red'
      when options[:alerttype].match(/info/i)
        @color = 'green'
      end if options[:alerttype]
    end

    def report
      if @msg
        @msg_options[:color]=(@color || 'yellow')
        client = HipChat::Client.new(@api_token, @hipchat_options)
        client[@room_name].send(@to_user, [@msg_prefix, @msg].join(' '), @msg_options)
      end
    end
  end
end
begin
  opts = Trollop::options do
    opt :message, "Use monkey mode"  ,:type => :string                  # flag --monkey, default false
    opt :name, "Monkey name", :type => :string        # string --name <s>, default nil
    opt :apitoken, "HIPCHAT API Token 2.0", :type=> :string
    opt :roomname, "Room id from Hipchat", :type=> :string
    opt :alerttype, "warning/critical/info", :type => :string
  end
  [ :message, :apitoken, :roomname].each do |key|
    Trollop::die "arguments required --#{key}" unless opts[key]
  end
  hipchat=HipChat::NotifyRoomCli.new(opts[:apitoken],opts[:roomname],opts[:message],opts)
  hipchat.report
rescue Errno::ENOENT => err
  abort "hip_chat_cli: #{err.message}"
end`

shubhamitcさん、 Please try to set message_format:

client['hokehoke'].send('hokehoke', '@all, hello world', :message_format => 'text') Reference: https://developer.atlassian.com/hipchat/guide/sending-messages
