You can see PolkaBOT in action in:
You can also run PolkaBOT yourself and the [docker] images that are available may help.
PolkaBOT is an extensible bot for Polkadot and other Substrate based chains. It is mainly running on Matrix.org but also handles notification with other networks such as twitter using dedicated plugins.

Note
|
PolkaBOT aims as being as silent as possible so don’t expect lots of fuzz and action! |
git clone https://gitlab.com/chevdor/polkabot.git cd polkabot nvm use yarn yarn start

Note
|
For devs, the command is typically: |
NODE_ENV=dev LOG_LEVEL=silly yarn start
You can find the API documentation at https://polkabot.gitlab.io/polkabot/
yarn yarn-check yarn upgrade
Start your substrate node:
docker run --rm -it --name polkadev -p 9944:9944 chevdor/polkadot:0.8.2 polkadot --dev --alice --rpc-cors all --unsafe-ws-external
then run:
nvm use
Before you got further you need to check your config. This is a .env file and all variables start with POLKABOT_.
By default, the running mode is 'production' and will pick the .env file. The following to the same:
yarn start NODE_ENV=production yarn start
If you want to use another file such as .env.dev, you may use:
NODE_ENV=dev y start
Matrix is changing quickly and e2e is now enabled by default. You will need to make an account for the bot and login a to get your recovery key and define your recovery passphrase. After that, e2e should work.

Warning
|
If you use a browser to login as the bot, you will automatically signal that the bot is 2e2 capable.. which it is not. After that, all invitations from Riot will be with encryption turned on. There is a workaround which is to create a new room without encryption, invite the bot (it will join automatically) and change the conversation level to 'Direct Message'. |
Currently, Polkabot does NOT support encryption. If encryption is needed, https://github.com/matrix-org/pantalaimon could be used as proxy.
