There was already one adapterhubot-gitter but after tryingto fix many missing things from it, I decided to write one from scratch.

At the time this is written, here is the advantages of this one:

• namespaced environment variables for the configuration
• handlingrobot.send room: 'room id or uri', 'my message'
• gathering information from users in all rooms correctly
• not handling messages that the bot itself is sending

• installHubot andCoffeeScript:npm install -g hubot coffee-script
• create your bot and install its dependencies:

npm install -g yo generator-hubotmkdir -p my-botyo hubot

• savehubot-gitter2 as dependency:npm install --save hubot-gitter2
• start the bot using the right adapter:HUBOT_GITTER2_TOKEN=<your token> ./bin/hubot -a gitter2 --name <your bot name>
  • HUBOT_GITTER2_TOKEN: get your personal tokenthere after sign-in
  • the bot will automatically listen on the rooms it has joined.

• If your bot is not responding to mentions, make sure hubot was started with the same--name parameter as its GitHub username.
