You should use an HTTP route. Make an HTTP route that you can send commands to. From that you can have it post messages anywhere.

Take a look at:

• https://github.com/webdestroya/lita-github-commits
• https://github.com/jimmycuadra/lita-travis

They both provide http routes that are used to post messages to channels

@webdestroya nice solution, but may be some internal call would be better

@toothfairy Are you asking for a way to send data to a running Lita process from another process on the same system? If so, I'd like to hear more about what you're trying to do and how you imagine it might work. If the notification is coming from another system over the network, HTTP is your best bet.

@jimmycuadra yep i'm talking about interaction inside of the same system. Solution i think about some built-in DRb server or multiple handlers support. dunno tho may be http solution would be much easier

Monit has some documentation about using HTTP to send notifications to external services: http://mmonit.com/wiki/MMonit/Notification

Unless there is something you find you cannot achieve with HTTP, I think adding another inbound communication mechanism is probably overkill for the moment.
