An open source chat bot framework written in python. It is designed to be extendable, scalable and simple.

This application is designed to take messages from chat services and execute python functions (skills) based on their contents. Those functions can be anything you like, from simple conversational responses to running complex tasks. The true power of this project is to act as a glue library to bring the multitude of natural language APIs, chat services and third party APIs together.

ChatOps

"ChatOps is an operational paradigm where work that is already happening in the background today is brought into a common chatroom. By doing this, you are unifying the communication about what work should get done with actual history of the work being done." - StackStorm

In the new frontier of DevOps it is becoming more and more popular to interact with your automation tools via an instant messenger. opsdroid is a framework to make creating and extending your ChatOps workflows powerful but simple.

Why use opsdroid?

  • It's open source
  • Simple to modify and extend
  • Add your own skills in under 10 lines of python
  • Easy to install
  • Designed with Docker in mind for simple deployment
  • Configurable with a single YAML file
