At Red Hat, all of our instant internal messaging is done through IRC. Because of this, many of our channels have a couple bots in them that do things like process links, report new pull requests, and keep track of users’ karma. What’s cool is that a lot of these bots are actually developed and running on OpenShift, so let’s look at how you could get your own IRC bot running in OpenShift Online V3.
