 eyJhb | Hvae there been discussions on getting the nixbot back? https://github.com/infinisil/nixbot/ , could be quite useful in #users:nixos.org , to do basic evals, link to the wiki quick, commom questions, etc. | 11:32:04 |
 K900 | Someone needs to port it to Matrix | 11:35:16 |
| K900 | But it would be nice to have yeah | 11:35:23 |

Nixbot is an IRC bot supporting Nix-related functionality. It’s using a RabbitMQ broker maintained by @grahamc for sending messages via the {^_^} nick on freenode (and therefore can’t run on its own currently).
I'm quite sure it ran for some time here in Matirx, but then it was removed.
| 11:36:10 |
| eyJhb | It seems like it could simplify a lot of help. Showing eval, boilerplate text for the same questions, linking to the wiki easily (maybe for debug steps), etc. etc. | 11:37:03 |
| eyJhb | I'll try to ask infinisil how they feel about it. :) | 11:37:45 |
 infinisil | Yeah the RabbitMQ stuff was always a pain! | 11:41:14 |
| infinisil | Simpler is better imo :D | 11:41:26 |
| eyJhb | But it's quite a nice setup to delegate it over something like MQTT, so that multiple integrations could easily be made, without giving access to the bot account. But I'm not actually sure how it's best done in Matrix. | 11:45:00 |
| eyJhb | Anyways, I just wanted to bring it up, if I have the energy/time I might look into it. Not sure if it would be the nixbot code, or something else. My Haskell experience is 0. | 11:45:28 |
