shellbot.speaker module

class shellbot.speaker.Speaker(engine=None)

Bases: multiprocessing.process.Process

Sends updates to a business messaging space

EMPTY_DELAY = 0.005

process(item)

Sends one update to a business messaging space

Parameters:item (str or object) – the update to be transmitted

run()

Continuously send updates

This function is looping on items received from the queue, and is handling them one by one in the background.

Processing should be handled in a separate background process, like in the following example:

speaker = Speaker(engine=my_engine)
speaker.start()

The recommended way for stopping the process is to change the parameter general.switch in the context. For example:

engine.set('general.switch', 'off')

Alternatively, the loop is also broken when an exception is pushed to the queue. For example:

engine.mouth.put(None)

class shellbot.speaker.Vibes(text=None, content=None, file=None, channel_id=None, person=None)

Bases: object
