 fgaz | Relatedly, I just wrote a package search bot: Nix search bot
As far as I can see nixbot did not have this functionality. Is this something that can be useful in #users:nixos.org?

 eyJhb | I'm slowly but surely working on a stupid simple bot, that just returns the output of whatever script you point X command at. So it makes the codebase VERY simple, and EASY to extend from just changing the nix config. The backbone of it is coded in Golang using the Mautrix SDK, which I think is one of the best SDKs out there. :) | 08:49:52 |

| eyJhb | So far it has this functionality. Works pretty well :) It's nice that it can eval nix expressions, as well as the ability to easily add new "commands", or rather, funktions to it. Such as linking to the wiki page, or other basic information that should be conveyed easily. | 15:49:11 |
 hexa | cool | 17:02:24 |
| eyJhb | @hexa is it OK if I PM you some time to discuss a potential bot in the space? :) | 17:07:12 |
| hexa | uh yeah, but am I the final authority on that? 😄 | 17:09:40 |

uh yeah, but am I the final authority on that? 😄 No, but you have more than me! And maybe can see if it even makes sense :D | 17:11:53 |
| eyJhb | I'm not sure who the authority actually is. I don't want to burden infra further as well... :D | 17:12:17 |

 Alyssa Ross | make sure the mods don't object, ask people in the room if they'd like it, and make it very obvious how to contact you with feedback if you do it? | 17:45:09 |
| eyJhb | Sounds like a good approach. Thus far I've asked one of the big contributors/helpers in #users:nixos.org if they like the idea of it, and which features it should support. I think with the dynamic commands we can come a long way with providing answers to common questions. | 18:04:27 |

 balsoft | Sorry if I'm missing some existing discussion, but is there a reason to keep "Nix / NixOS (replaced)` in the NixOS space? | 11:59:07 |
