It would be great for this to be compatible with the Bot Account structure as discussed on:

https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/bot-accounts.html

As this clearly is described as a sample bot, it is a bit confusing that it doesn't work with bot accounts due to the requirement of logging in.

Hello!
I have a golang bot that I am trying to run with two factor authentication enabled on mattermost.

I've added Client4.LoginWithMFA() to the golang client code but get these errors below.

undefined: Client 4
undefined: User
undefined: Response
Makefille:15: recipe for target 'run' failed
make: *** [run] Error 2

What am I missing?

Thank you again for all your help!

Hello,

I seem to be having an issue running my mattermost bot.
When I type the command "make run" it gives me the error "/bin/sh: 1: go: not found make: *** [run] Error 127".
However, when I do a ls I see the go file in the directory.
Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks.

In mattermost, a user can do /me does some action. I am curious how this could be implemented with this bot code.

Thanks!

This sample bot stops responding if left running for a while.
I found an issue here which details the same behavior and it was fixed by restarting the websocket connection when an error is detected.

This logic should be added to the sample to prevent newbies from hitting the same issue.

Getting cannot find package "github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/model" during make run. Is the implementation just too old? 🤔

Server 5.6.0.

Attempting to run golang after configuring google MFA. Startup fails. Any thoughts,

After following the relevant instructions,

git clone https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-bot-sample-golang.git

cd mattermost-bot-sample-golang

then I did this

glide up

the build fails with

dschulz@testserver:~/mattermost-bot-sample-golang$ make run
go run *.go
# command-line-arguments
./bot_sample.go:203: event.ChannelId undefined (type *model.WebSocketEvent has no field or method ChannelId)
./bot_sample.go:213: event.UserId undefined (type *model.WebSocketEvent has no field or method UserId)
Makefile:15: recipe for target 'run' failed
make: *** [run] Error 2

What am I doing wrong?

What license is this sample? The headers only say:

// Copyright (c) 2016 Mattermost, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
// See License.txt for license information.

Updated a server to 5.1 and my bot is failing on the socket call:

webSocketClient, err := model.NewWebSocketClient("wss://"+MattermostHost, client.AuthToken) if err != nil { println("We failed to connect to the web socket") fmt.Println(err) }

In the console I see:

We failed to connect to the web socket NewWebSocketClient: model.websocket_client.connect_fail.app_error, websocket: bad handshake

Writing out the resp in NewWebSocketClient shows:

`
wss:///api/v4/users/websocket

&{401 Unauthorized 401 HTTP/1.1 1 1 map[X-Ratelimit-Limit:[1001] X-Frame-Options:[SAMEORIGIN] Content-Type:[application/json] Expires:[0] X-Ratelimit-Reset:[1] Date:[Wed, 25 Jul 2018 19:06:44 GMT] X-Request-Id:[nnbx46s4rtyk8jp4oqbt9pz8cr] Content-Length:[186] X-Ratelimit-Remaining:[999] X-Version-Id:[4.2.0.4.2.0.41509822b940251c088c73d7081937bb.false] Server:[nginx/1.12.1] Content-Security-Policy:[frame-ancestors 'self';]] {0xc42016e888} 186 [] true false map[] 0xc420108100 }

Tried on a server still running 4.2 and it works as expected. Did I miss something in the upgrade? Thanks.

hello ,I look at you sample,but it don't give me a sample about sending attachments .can you give a sample with it,thank you!

The import path used in this example is wrong. Glide can work with it ok, but when trying to use this example code as an inspiration for a project that uses go.mod it will fail. See mattermost/mattermost#13676

After following the relevant instructions,

git clone https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-bot-sample-golang.git

cd mattermost-bot-sample-golang

then I typed this: make run

received errors: Any suggestions?

./bin/platform team create --name botsample --display_name "Sample Bot playground" --email "[email protected]"

output : botsample --display_name "Sample Bot playground" --email "[email protected]" --debug
-bash: ./bin/platform: No such file or directory

running the latest version of mattermost server on localhost:8605. Followed the Readmd file with no luck. One youtube video shows mattermost/platform repo which I was unable to find. Can someone guide.

It's possible to respond events in Private and Public Channel.But can it be used to do the same in direct messaging.If so how?

Hi,

I'm using a part of this bot sample in an internal bot we use and I face an issue,

after few delay, the wss notification stop to be received to the bot.

I think it's located on this part of the code base :

 49         webSocketClient.Listen()                                                                                   
 50         go func() {                                                                                                
 51                 for {                                                                                              
 52                         select {                                                                                   
 53                         case resp := <-webSocketClient.EventChannel:                                               
 54                                 HandleWebSocketResponse(resp)                                                      
 55                         }                                                                                          
 56                 }                                                                                                  
 57         }()     

I think in the for loop I need to add a check to ensure that the WSS is still connected and reconnect it if needed.

Can you have a recommandation on how to achieve that ?

Thanks a lot Mattermost team & folks !

Is it possible to call the client and retrieve a list of direct message options? I can get channels via:

x, y := client.SearchChannels(oteam.Id, search)
fmt.Println(y)
for _, t := range x {
   println(t.Name + "  :  " + t.Id)
}

But this does not return direct message channels. I would like the bot to be able to respond to 1:1 commands as well.

Thanks.

Is it possible to login using gitlab single sign on? I'm using the GitLab omnibus edition that ships with mattermost. Users currently log in to mattermost via a "Sign in with gitlab" page which in turn uses LDAP.
