helga-bugzilla 1.2.1

About

Helga is a Python chat bot. Full documentation can be found at http://helga.readthedocs.org.

This Bugzilla plugin allows Helga to respond to Bugzilla ticket numbers in IRC and print information about the tickets. For example:

03:14 < ktdreyer> bz 1217809
03:14 < helgabot> ktdreyer might be talking about
                  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1217809
                  [[TRACKER] SELinux support]

Installation

This Bugzilla plugin is available from PyPI, so you can simply install it with pip:

pip install helga-bugzilla

If you want to hack on the helga-bugzilla source code, in your virtualenv where you are running Helga, clone a copy of this repository from GitHub and run python setup.py develop.

Optional: URL Configuration

In your settings.py file (or whatever you pass to helga --settings), you can specify a BUGZILLA_XMLRPC_URL. For example:

BUGZILLA_XMLRPC_URL = 'https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi'

(If you do not specify this setting, the plugin will use txbugzilla’s default URL, which is Red Hat’s bugzilla.)

You can also specify a URL format:

BUGZILLA_TICKET_URL = "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/%(ticket)s"

The %(ticket)s format string will be replaced with the bug number. Since the underlying library (txbugzilla) already constructs these web URLs for bugs automatically, you probably don’t need to add this setting to helga. It’s only necessary if your custom Bugzilla requires some other URL scheme.
