Hubot Rss Poller

This is a simple polling script used to poll RSS feeds and ping rooms when an update is found. All it requires is a file specified to read.

Configuration

All you need is a .json file with the following configurations set up. This is loaded from the hubotrssconfig.json file in the top level of the hubot install, or you can specify in an environment variable HUBOT_RSS_CONFIG_FILE.

{
  "feeds": [{
    "name": "Name of the RSS feed goes here",
    "url": "URL to the RSS feed",
    "room": "room to message out to when an update is found",
    "pingInterval": "100", // How many seconds to wait before polling for update
    "alertPrefix": "A prefix to the output message goes here.",
    "alertSuffix": "a suffix to an output message goes here.",
    "initialDelay": "3" // initial wait (in seconds) check to allow hubot to connect"
  }]
}
