A skill for opsdroid to respond to Please run messages. With this skill you will be able to run shell scripts from a specific folder you can configure. And the standard output and error messages will sent back to the chat.

None.

You can configure:

• scriptdir - where the skill will search for shell scripts, default: ~/.opsdroid/modules/opsdroid-modules/skill/shell/script/
• initialtalkbacktimeout - the timeout in seconds for sending the first stdout lines from the script back to the chat, default: 5
• talkbacktimeout - the maximum time in seconds the skill will wait until the gathered stdout lines are sent back to the chat, default: 15
• argumentumseparator - if the script is able to accept argumentums this will be the separator between the args; default: ;

Place a shell scipt like this:

#!/bin/bash
ls . | grep -v "*.lib"

in the scriptdir and then you can tell opsdroid: Please run ls

opsdroid will run the script ls in the scriptdir and answer with the output of the script.

The output will be like:

Starting the script named ls on 2018-06-17 11:42:54.705303... Please be patient...
