A hubot http listening server

listener.coffee

# Inspired by http://tomb.io/posts/hubot-ci-and-deploying/
# Its probably tightly bound to the xmpp adapter, and incorrect
# in loads of ways, but its a start.

# POST a json document to /message containing 'room' (the JID of the room 
# you want to talk to) and 'message' (the message you want to send)

http = require "http"
Robot = require '../src/robot'

module.exports = (robot) ->
  server = http.createServer (req, res) ->
    if req.url is "/message"
      data = ""
      req.setEncoding "utf8"

      req.on "data", (chunk) ->
        data += chunk

      req.on "end", ->
        json = JSON.parse data
        room = json.room
        message = json.message
        robot.logger.info "Message '#{message}' received for room #{room}"

        user = robot.userForId 'broadcast'
        user.room = room
        user.type = 'groupchat'

        robot.receive new Robot.TextMessage user, "http message #{message}"

    res.writeHead 200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'}
    res.end 'Thanks\n'

  server.listen 9292, "0.0.0.0"

  robot.hear /http message (.*)/i, (msg) ->
    text = msg.match[1]
    msg.send text

You got it to work hosted in Heroku?

Sorry, we run our own hubot internally so haven't tried it on Heroku.

But this works on Heroku :D — https://gist.github.com/1633778
