A webapp .war - codebase behind Charles Michaels chatbot. More details here.

Say @charlesmike hello in a Github issue comment and see what happens. This blog post and the website provide more details on how to use this service.

We are currently looking for contributors. Read this post.

1. Open an issue regarding an improvement you thought of, or a bug you noticed, or asked to be assigned to an existing one.
2. If the issue is confirmed, fork the repository, do the changes on a sepparate branch and make a Pull Request.
3. After review and acceptance, the PR is merged and closed.
4. You are automatically listed as a contributor on the project's site

Make sure the maven build

$mvn clean install

passes before making a PR.

• phantom js and [Selenium] (http://www.seleniumhq.org/projects/webdriver/) with GhostDriver
• [Elastic search] (https://www.elastic.co/)
• [Amazon Web Services] (https://aws.amazon.com/)
• [Github API] (https://developer.github.com/v3/) (using jcabi-github)

The .war should work fine on any Java EE web server. It is not bound by any server-specific property file or other things like that. Once deployed, it exposes the endpoint POST /api/notifications which accepts a JsonArray of format:

[
    ...,
    {
        "repoFullName":"owner/repoNameHere",
        "issueNumber":123
    },
    ...
]

As it is clear, a pipeline between Github Notifications API and this endpoint is needed. You can setup one of your own (respecting the above mentioned interface) or use this ejb .jar. You can also set a webhook (do not forget to modify the endpoint so that it points to your domain).

You will need to set the following system properties. Pay a lot of attention while configuring these, since everything relies on them.
