Zulip bot that pairs Recursers for coffee chats

Just say hi directly to @chat-bot.
Before you get started, make sure you have docker on your local machine and have the daemon running. You can do a docker info to check if you're connected to the daemon.
docker build -t coffee . // builds the image
// you can do `docker images` to check that the coffee image is there
docker run -p 8080:8081 coffee // runs the image second port num is the internal port
Before you get started, make sure you have:
- a recent version of Node (10.x)
- some version of SQLite3
- Python 2.7 (any recent version)
The better-sqlite3 npm package requires Python 2 as a dependency. Python 3 will throw a syntax error. Things get even more complicated on Windows. Just make sure you can run Python 2.7 from the CLI.
The basic installation is what you'd expect: npm install.
After all of the npm packages have been installed, you'll want to create a .env file, probably by copying the example file
cp .env.example .env
You can configure it as you wish, but the default values should just work. The default database is data/development.db which is already configured in the .env file. To create it (since we're avoiding checking it in through our .gitignore), you just need to touch the file:
touch data/development.db
Once you've installed all the packages, copied the local environment file, and created the development database, you can run the tests to verify everything works:
npm test
and then start the server
npm run dev
Happy hacking!
