Errbot is a python chatbot, this storage plugin allows you to use it with SQL databases as a persistent storage. By using SQLAlchemy, it has the support for Firebird, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Sybase, IBM DB2, Amazon Redshift, exasol, Sybase SQL Anywhere, MonetDB.
- Install the support for the database you want to use. See SQLalchemy doc
- Then you need to add this section to your config.py, following this example:
BOT_EXTRA_STORAGE_PLUGINS_DIR='/home/gbin/err-storage'
STORAGE = 'SQL'
STORAGE_CONFIG = {
'data_url': 'postgresql://scott:tiger@localhost/test',
}- Start your bot in text mode:
errbot -Tto give it a shot.
If you want to migrate from the local storage to SQL, you should be able to backup your data (with STORAGE commented) then restore it back with STORAGE uncommented.
