Hubot Adapters

Adapters are the interface to the service you want your hubot to run on.

Official Adapters

Hubot includes two official adapters:

• Shell, i.e. for use with development
• Campfire

Third-party Adapters

Third-party adapters are available as npm packages. Here is a list of known adapters, but please submit an issue to have yours added to the list:

• Flowdock
• HipChat
• IRC
• Partychat
• Talker
• Twilio
• Twitter
• XMPP
• Gtalk
• Yammer
• Skype
• Jabbr
• iMessage
• Hall
• ChatWork
• QQ
• AIM

Writing Your Own adapter

The best place to start is src/adapter.coffee, and inheriting from Adapter. There is not as much documentation as could exist (yet!), so it is worth reviewing existing adapters as well as how hubot internally uses an adapter.
