Teams Bot

This bot connects your team to the outside and makes it addressable.

Configure this bot with your team address (e.g. helpdesk@example.org), and add all your team members to the crew. Then, every time an outsider writes to your team address, the bot opens a new relay group with all of you; you can use the relay group to discuss the request in private and when you have come to a conclusion, answer the request. The bot will forward the answer to the outsider in the name of the team, hiding the identities of the team members.

Setup

To install this bot, run:

git clone https://git.0x90.space/missytake/teams-bot
cd teams-bot
pip install .

Now you can configure it with an email address you want to use as a team:

teams-bot init --email das_synthikat@systemli.org --password p455w0rD

This command will show a QR code; scan it with Delta Chat to become part of the "team", the verified group which manages the Teams Bot.

Now to run it, simply execute:

teams-bot init --email das_synthikat@systemli.org --password p455w0rD

The bot only works as long as this command is running. Read more about running bots on bots.delta.chat.
