hubot-meme

Zero-configuration memes for your hubot via memecaptain.com

See src/meme.coffee for full documentation.

Why hubot-meme? Unlike many other meme scripts, memecaptain.com requires no API key and has a painless setup. 😄

Installation

In hubot project repo, run:

npm install hubot-meme --save

Then add hubot-meme to your external-scripts.json:

[
  "hubot-meme"
]

Extra Extra Memes!

Can't get enough?

In your environment variables set:

HUBOT_EXTRA_MEMES=True

This switches the robot.respond function to robot.hear so that your Hubot will match all text in the chatroom.

Sample Interaction

user1>> hubot help meme
hubot>> [Displays all possible memes]
user1>> @hubot Generate all the memes
hubot>> http://i.memecaptain.com/gend_images/PESlaQ.jpg

Extending Memes

By default, I'm keeping this set of memes and commands fairly clean and appropriate for a workplace. You can extend the memes in your own bot's code by requireing the memecaptain.coffee file, which handles all the API interactions.

Sample:

memeGenerator = require "hubot-meme/src/lib/memecaptain.coffee"

module.exports = (robot) ->
  robot.respond /(.+) (ALL the .+)/i, id: 'meme.all-the-things', (msg) ->
    memeGenerator msg, 'Dv99KQ', msg.match[1], msg.match[2]

New meme images can be added at http://memecaptain.com by pasting the URL into the Load URL then hitting enter. The src param of the URL is your image ID.
