Description (last modified by trev)

Background

We have an IRC bot that currently resides in #adblockplus. During recent changes Felix noticed a few things that need changing with it...

What to change

  • Have it join all of our IRC channels, not just #adblockplus on irc.mozilla.org.
  • Ensure something sensible is happening with the created logs. (I'm not exactly sure about what that is.)
  • Rename the bot to abpbot from abplogbot as it now does more than just logging.

Note: I'm filing this on Felix's behalf, I might have omitted something or got some of the details wrong.

Well I suppose these should be separate issues :D But I guess this'll do for now, once someone finds time to work on any these they can write more issues.

In the context of #4103 we've now made abpbot run on a separate host (forgot about the existence of this ticket here when that one was created a few days ago). In the context of #4104 we still need to follow-up on this, properly integrating the setup with Puppet.

Afterwards we can finally tackle #308, in which context log publication has been requested quite a while ago already (blocked so far by the setup not being included with our configuration management, monitoring etc. in the first place).

Automated re-provisioning or updates based on patches in the repository are a no-go*. At least until we have established proper CI for the entire development cycle, and in that context we will need some more IRC logging, for all of which the abpbot is far from suitable anyway. So I doubt that this will ever happen, it's way more likely that we revamp that thingy from the core up. These considerations also render renaming overhead for now.

*) I realize that this is done in some parts of our system, but we have already established that we need to overhaul these resources / processes as well.
