Plan-B-ot is an integration for Mattermost and slack which allows for Scrum Planning Poker inside the Mattermost or slack chat.
Plan-B-ot is written in go. Mattermost is an open source project: Mattermost on GitHub.
In a channel, use the slash command (see setup) to interact with
the bot. If your slash command is called /planbot, you can issue the
following commands:
/planbot task <your taskname>
Creates a new task with zero votes and the given name
/planbot vote <your vote>
Sets your vote on the current task. If you had a vote before, it gets overriden by the new vote.
/planbot results
Orders plan-b-ot to print all the voting results in the specified channel (see setup).
You need to setup two integrations: a slach command and an incoming web hook
Setup a slash command so users can interact with plan-b-ot:
- Create a new slash command integration for your team.
- Pick the command you want to use, e.g.
planbot. - Specify the URL where your plan-b-ot will be running.
If your server is reachable at
example.com, your port is8786, and your route is/planbot: then set this toexample.com:8786/planbot. See also bot setup. - Method is
POST. - Token: you need the token for the bot setup.
Setup an incoming web hook so plan-b-ot can post to your channel:
- Create a new incoming web hook for your team.
- Set the
channelthat you want plan-b-ot to post to. - Webhook URL: you need the webhook URL for the bot setup.
Copy config.json.example to config.json.
Edit the contents of config.json to setup your plan-b-ot:
Port: The port on which plan-b-ot listens.Route: The URL route for plan-b-ot.Token: the token from the Mattermost/slack setup (slash command).Webhook URL: The webhook URL from the Mattermost/slack setup (incoming web hook on Mattermost's/'slack's side).
Run plan-b-ot. Now the server is running and waiting for input from Mattermost/slack.
