releasehealth-bot is an IRC bot that polls Bugzilla for changes in the number of bugs returned for select queries. These queries are fetched from the releasehealth dashboard to eliminate redundancy.

It uses Redis to store historical data. That data could also conceivably be used to plot trends.

releasehealth-bot is configured entirely via environment variables. See releasehealth/config.py for a documented list of options. Several are mandatory; others have more-or-less sensible defaults.

To install, preferably create and activate a virtualenv, then run pip install -r requirements.txt.

To run, set your required environment variables, and then launch python releasehealth-bot.py.
