Commandline options

There are few options supplied to run with:

usage: auto_reply_tool.py [-h] [--debug] [--address ADDRESS] [--port PORT]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help         show this help message and exit
  --debug            Enable debug mode.
  --address ADDRESS  Listen on this address. Default: 127.0.0.1.
  --port PORT        Listen on this port. Default: 6655.

--debug: This option will set log level to DEBUG when logging to file. Log level in stderr in always INFO.

--address: This option can set the address to listen on. 127.0.0.1is a good choice on most occasions, and for security you shouldn't change it unless necessary.

--port: This option can set the port to listen on. If the default port is already used by other process, use this to change the port.

Login and set auto reply config

Use your web browser to visit: http://127.0.0.1:6655(By default, if you haven't change the address and port).

Then login with your authentication and change your config on the web page directly.

Auto reply config

There are some config you can change when using auto reply:

Reply Interval: If the interval between the last two message received in the same channel is larger than interval, then send a reply message.

Max Interval: Extend next auto reply interval to this value(only accept seconds now).

Reply Message: The message to send. You can wrap on the textarea and don't need to use \n yourself.
