Missing bot setup directives?

[fredczj]

Hi, I am working on a zulip/redmine setup on premise. Things are going well until I try to integrate zulip-redmine plugin. I successfully observed (in logs of redmine) message feeding the API endpoints of my zulip server (as I don't have HTTP error after some setup and debug). I have set up a Bot on the Zulip whose type is 'Incoming webhook'. Unfortunately, I don't see any message coming on the #redmine stream I have opened. I don't see any activity neither in the log files, but I am not sure how to watch.

I can't find information on bot setup that much, and I was wondering if there is an existing bot somewhere to import to make the plugin works?

Thanks, Fred

@fredczj sorry for the trouble -- can you try checking whether https://github.com/zulip/zulip-redmine-plugin/issues/6#issuecomment-441292596 helps?

I think this plugin has bitrotted somewhat; I'll see if I can find someone to work on it, but it'd be helpful to have a report on whether the advice in that comment helps.

OK, Tim, part of it worked, indeed. Actually, it sounds like the way the HTTP object is created in this post helped:

        new_uri = "https://" + Setting.plugin_redmine_zulip['zulip_server'] + "/api/v1/messages"
        uri = URI.parse(new_uri)
        http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
        http.use_ssl = true

        req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri)
    [...]

I am also not a Ruby expert. So it is difficult for me to judge if there are some regression risks on other. I would also have used the zulip_port() function to get the port... so, all this may need to be cleaned up. I am not really sure how.

I hope this helps! Anyway, thank you

I believe this was fixed in #8, thanks again for the report!
