Integrate Slack and Anki's vector

WORK IN PROGRESS

Integrate Slack with Digital Dream labs (Anki's) Vector. This assumes you are connected to Digital Dream lab's cloud service, if you have the escape pod you will need to use https://github.com/cyb3rdog/vector-python-sdk/ (which I do so I'm unable to test this with the latest protobuf update I'm afraid!)

Possible commands

say <message>
show <image name>
show <image name> for <number> seconds
whats going on
play <spritesheet name>
fireworks
giggle

Requirements

Python 3.8 (for Protobuf, which Vector needs)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.8

Slack token

You will need a classic slack app with a single scope of 'bot'. Ignore the "there are new permissions!" warnings. Add a bot user via App Home on the left, then install to your workspace and take the token beginning with xoxb

Developing

python3.8 -m venv .
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Tests

python -m unittest discover -s vectorslack/tests

Docker

docker build .
docker run -v vector_config:/root/.anki_vector -ti <image id> /bin/bash
python3.8 -m anki_vector.configure
<enter all your details>
exit
docker run -v vector_config:/root/.anki_vector -e SLACK_TOKEN -e VECTOR_SERIAL <image id>

Sprite sheets for animations

Create a PNG sprite sheet, each sprite is 184 in width, 96 in height. Two rows of five and place in

vectorslack/images

Images

Any images you want to use with the "show" command should go in vectorslack/images and be 184 pixels wide and 94 pixels high
