I am thinking about how to make it more accessible to experiment with etherpump. It is not very easy to ask people to edit the source code to make it do what they want. The command line interface is also quite scary 😅.

So, I am wondering about an etherpump API! It might look like:

# etherpumping.py

from etherpump.api import react

@react("__MY_MAGIC_WORD__")
def react_to_my_magic_word(pads):
    for pad in pads:
        print(pad.text)

Then just run:

$ pip install etherpump
$ python etherpumping.py

So, anyone can write a small script and etherpump will take care of the heavy lifting of scanning the pads and matching each pad with the given magic word and giving this pad, text, metadata to the function.
