About

Helga is a full-featured chat bot for Python 2.6/2.7 using Twisted. Helga originally started as a python fork of a perl-based IRC bot olga, but has grown considerably since then. Early versions limited to support to IRC, but now include other services like XMPP and HipChat. Full documentation can be found at http://helga.readthedocs.org.

Supported Backends

As of version 1.7.0, helga supports IRC, XMPP, and HipChat out of the box. Note, however, that helga originally started as an IRC bot, so much of the terminology will reflect that. The current status of XMPP and HipChat support is very limited and somewhat beta. In the future, helga may have a much more robust and pluggable backend system to allow connections to any number of chat services.

Contributing

Contributions are always welcomed, whether they be in the form of bug fixes, enhancements, or just bug reports. To report any issues, please create a ticket on github. For code changes, please note that any pull request will be denied a merge if the test suite fails.
