Botkit: [RFC] Multi tenancy pattern for all chat platforms

Created on 29 Jun 2017 · 5Comments · Source: howdyai/botkit

Summary

As discussed in https://github.com/howdyai/botkit/pull/800 we created this issue in order to find a common ground on the integration of multi-tenancy on Botkit.

Motivation

The main use case is to be able to talk to many facebook pages / slack teams / other chat platform using the same pattern. Right now we have different implementation and it would be nice to consolidate around the same pattern.

Detailed design

What is the state of this RFC? is there any workarounds I can use to implement this?

With the intro of the messaging pipeline, this is a perfect time to revisit this issue!

Id say a middleware to retrieve bot config info is in order, and can be dropped into place in the receive or ingest stage to modify the bot before it is filtered through the handlers.

@benbrown have you guys thought about this any lately? Slack is multi team by nature, and a similar implementation for facebook is appropriate.

Ill keep my eyes on this and propose a PR for people to poke at and modify!
