Slack @references are rendered as <@UNIQUEID> about lita-karma HOT 4 CLOSED

I was hoping to switch the term_pattern and term_normalizer at start up time, to keep the performance effect of this change down. But when the plugin is being configured Lita.config.robot.adapter is set to :shell.

Is there a better way to query the configured adapter at start up, or is this the timing problem it appears to be?

Are you using the latest Slack adapter? That type of special Slack formatting should be removed from messages before being received by the robot now. If you're on the latest version of the adapter, I'd consider it a hole in our coverage of special Slack formatting that should be removed.

Interesting. I installed it without specifying a version in the Gemfile, so I assume that means I’m running the latest released version.

I can try running on the master branch on Github and see if it performs differently.

That’s worse. It expands @mention to “@Full name” with spaces, so in the case of karma it considers the last name the term: @erik++ expands to @Erik Ogan++

But now that I know it’s a bug in the lita-slack adapter, I can open an issue over there.
