This year our very own Wapuu Bot makes his second appearance!
WordCamp Miami’s official slack bot is @wapuu. @wapuu uses Slack’s API to respond to messages when his name is mentioned and also listens in on the public channel for certain important phrases.
@wapuu is a Node/Express Javascript app which uses the botkit framework by Howdy.ai. WordCamp Miami schedule information is pulled from the website using the WordPress REST API.
Here are some helpful and not so helpful things that @wapuu can do.
Unless otherwise noted you need to mention @wapuu in your message in order to get a response. But under some circumstances @wapuu will just respond to public messages.
Find a speaker or a session
Session titles and speaker names will be searched using a case-insensitive “strict” search, so if you want to find out when there is a session about Vue.js, try “vue” instead of “vue js” or “vue.js” in case the title does not have the extra words.
@wapuu find [speaker or session name]
e.g.,
@wapuu find matt
@wapuu find vue
Need Help
@wapuu help
@wapuu links
@wapuu food (or breakfast, lunch, dinner)
@wapuu directions
Wapuu Will Try to Guess
Wapuu is listening to the general messages on Slack and will try to interject helpful info about maps, parking, directions, registration, food, kids camp.
I need directions
Where to do I go for registration?
What’s for lunch?
Mention coffee, cafecito, cafe con leche, etc.
Wapuu will serve up all sorts of coffee goodness whenever you mention certain coffee related keywords. An ambient word will just get a Slack reaction but a mention of @wapuu will show a .gif.
just try it, mention:
coffee
cafecito
caffeine
cafe con leche
or
@wapuu hit me with a cafe cubano
@wapuu I’ll take a vanilla latte
@wapuu quiero un cortadito
@wapuu must have coffee
Say hi to @wapuu and give him a compliment
hola @wapuu
yo@wapuu
thanks @wapuu
@wapuu sak pase
@wapuu wadup mon
Easter Eggs!
There are a few keywords that will cause Wapuu to respond with a (hopefully humorous) response. Try things related to WordPress or it’s co-founder or about the awesome WCMIA swag.
