Anechka is a bot which looks up google spreadsheets, finds someone who is on duty today and sets channel topic with his nick. You can have several timetables for different groups and channels.

• slack bot credentials
• google api credentials
• spreadsheet in definite format (see below)

• credentials.json - credentials from google
• token.json - token from google which you get after auth
• runtime.json - config which overrides default.json.

Please copy it from default.json. It looks like this:

{
  "tasks": [
    {
      "spreadsheetId": "qwoeifh;wiorhfilrhgilrh",
      "prefix": "_dev",
      "updateTime": "17:54:30",
      "devIndex": 1,
      "conversation": "GAC9TQ04W",
      "name": "dev update"
    },
    {
      "spreadsheetId": "234trw34te4srgt",
      "prefix": "_ops",
      "updateTime": "17:54:30",
      "devIndex": 0,
      "conversation": "1CDATR2CX",
      "name": "ops update"
    }
  ],
  "token": "zzz",
  "updateInterval": 10,
  "admin": "ivan.petrov"
}

admin is slack login of user which is used to send all kind of error reports.

Slack data is updated every hour, and timetable data is updated every 30 minutes. It is hardcoded for now.

Spreadsheet should have a sheet which is called timetable_${prefix}${year}. There you have timetable itself, in format like:

Please note that month number is required but month title is not neccessary.

Months and particular dates (for example holidays) can be skipped - then bot just does nothing.

Also spreadsheet should have a sheet "users" which links names from timetable to slack names, it looks like this:

Value owner is third column is used to send error reports for this timetable's owner.

• current directory is used to store cache contents - it is useful for debug.
