This is a spaghetti code bot that we did in Vienna's first bot hackathon ! ( FB Event )

Lazy deejays won first prize and we wanted to share the code that made it all possible. Since we had to hack this up in a single day there's no QA or testing

You know how parties nowadays always have like a laptop with 6 tabs of youtube open where everybody wants to play his song? Don't you just hate it when somebody with his drink comes in and ignores all that, closes the other tabs and plays his stupid song?

Meet lazy deejays. The DJ just opens up a website with a playlist. People can now request new songs through the bot. The songs are queued to the playlist automatically. easy cheesy.

If you test the bot on localhost you need a tunnel. You can use ngrok (simplest solution) or use your own server e.g. ssh -R 80:localhost:3000 user@example.com With ngrok you'll have a nice https tunnel that you can use to setup the webhook in messenger.

1. clone the repo

2. Install redis & libsqlite3-dev: sudo apt-get install redis-server libsqlite3-dev

3. Make sure you're running ruby >=2.2. Do a bundle install bundle install

4. Edit config/initializers/messenger.rb and put in your messenger tokens. Use this tutorial to create your page, bot and generate webhooks.

5. Edit config/initializers/yt.rb and put in your Google APIs Youtube API browser key. Follow this tutorial to get a key. Make sure the API Key is a browser one and not a server one.

6. Run rails s to start the server

7. visit http://127.0.0.1:3000/messenger/subscribe to subscribe the bot. You can now text your bot :)

8. visit http://127.0.0.1:3000/ and party hard!
