This PR introduces a
relayplugin which relays events from a room to an outside HTTP endpoint.In turn, the HTTP endpoint can also choose to respond to a particular event by just returning a JSON response, which would then be posted in the room.
As of version
1.0.0it supports the following fields in JSON response:messagesormessagefield for what should be posted in the room (basic markdown support included)reply_in_threadwhich can be set totrueorfalseand the message(s) returned would be posted in a thread to the observed event. If the event was already in a thread, the value of this field is ignored and message(s) is always posted in the thread.This would power the
tracbotfunctionality and any other outgoing webhooks based integrations, for which the logic of those bots sit elsewhere.
