Hubot and mattermost adapter

[EbsrVlee]

Hello All,

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this.
I am trying to setup hubot with the mattermost adapter but am having some issues. I run the “yo hubot” command and it asks me for the adapter, I put mattermost but then ran into the warning "[email protected] requires a peer of coffee-script@^1.12.6 but none was installed. I then ran npm install -g coffee-script and coffee-script 1.12.7 was installed.

I then go back to run hubot again and get the warning “UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY coffee-script@^1.12.6” and I see the adapter is still campfire not mattermost.

I am not sure how to proceed. Does anyone have any advice?

Thank you.

First run yo hubot and choose "shell" as adapter.
This wil setup the basic bot.
Then you need to install and configure a mattermost adapter, like this one:
npm install hubot-mattermost-adapter --save

After install you can then run that hubot with the mattermost adapter:
./bin/hubot --adapter mattermost

Thank you @bafplus , for your suggestion.
I followed those steps and afterwards when I ask hubot what it's adapter is, it says "shell". The mattermost adapter doesn't seem to be saving.

Then you probably started the hubot with the shell adapter instead of stating the mattermost adapter.
I just noticed i added th wrong adapter name so heres a new one:

./bin/hubot --adapter mattermost-adapter

Interesting. When I run ./bin/hubot --adapter mattermost-adapter I get the message "EMERGENCY MATTERMOST_HOST is required"

I then ask hubot for it's adapter and it's blank instead of saying "shell" like before.

That means the command is correct now but you havent supplied the (correct) environment variables.

I cant help you with that, maybe somebody else here?

Hello, does anyone else have any more advice? I tried running ./bin/hubot --adapter mattermost-adapter and ended up with error login call failed. If I run ./bin/hubot I get the name of my hubot. Then when I ask for adapter it is still stuck as shell.
