This is a version of GitHub's hubot. He's pretty cool. I make some configs and tailor it to Gtalk. I have selected serveral hubot-scripts from the enormous amount of them. Feel free to clone the version if you take interest in hubot. Or to do better, click the root_hubot

The dependancies are put in the json file. However, it seems to use pretty many npms, parts of them need to be compiled with native libraries. In ubuntu, run the commands at first:

sudo apt-get install libexpat1 libexpat1-dev
sudo apt-get install libicu-dev 

then to install npms

npm install

at last, prepare a file(.source) filling the context followed:

export HUBOT_GTALK_USERNAME="[email protected]"
export HUBOT_GTALK_PASSWORD="yyyyyy"
export HUBOT_GTALK_WHITELIST_USERS=""

Now, you can run the hubot.

source .source
hubot/bin/hubot -a gtalk

If you see something like undefined, the most possible reason is that you input the login and password uncorrectly。 Please check them.
