PyGab - A Python Jabber Framework

PyGab was born from Perry Lorier's Google Talk: Conference Bot and looks to be modularly extensible, making extensive use of plugins (Work In Progress).

Requirements

• Python >= 2.5

• Dependancies below this point are included with the source.

• XMPPPy 0.4.2 http://xmpppy.sourceforge.net

• Dict4Ini 0.9.5 http://dict4ini.googlecode.com

• Argparse 0.9.0 http://argparse.python-hosting.com

Installing & Running

Bots are separated into (.py, //) pairs:

ex: gbot.py, /gbot/

Module specific code stored in it's folder:

ex: /gbot/plugins/

Templates for each module's various ini files are stored in /templates/:

ex: /templates/-config.ini

When running a bot for the first time you'll need to copy all templates to the module's folder and strip "-" from the front of them. You are then free to make any adjustments you like. This will eventually be automatic.

To run a bot just execute it's .py file in the root folder:

ex: python gbot.py
