# WhisperBot
|
|
|
|
WhisperBot is an XMPP bot meant to be used in a tightly knit collective for expressing messages anonymously. The bot was made in the context of creating a Code of Conduct for Varia as an attempt to escape the document-ification of the values Varia wishes to hold close. The bot can be sent a private message by a member which the bot will repeat in the group chat. The intention behind it is to provide a format to express concerns/doubts/conflicts outside of existing group dynamics.

## How does WhisperBot work?
|
|
|
|
This bot forwards messages it receives in private to the group channel it is part of.
|
|
|
|
On line 37 you can change the code after 'msg.reply("' to add your own message that will be sent to the person speaking to the bot:
|
|
|
|
msg.reply("Thank you for telling me this. I will pass it on to the chatroom." % msg).send()
|
|
|
|
On line 38 you can change the code after 'mbody="' to add your own message that will be sent to the group the bot is part of:
|
|
|
|
self.send_message(mto=self.room, mbody="This has been whispered to me:\n%(body)s" % msg, mtype='groupchat')
|
|
|
|
To run this bot, type the following command in your terminal:
|
|
|
|
python3 whisper.py -j whisperbot@conversejs.org -r muc_name@muc.vvvvvvaria.org -n whisperbot -p testing |
