1. Follow the **Getting Started with Hubot** section of the
[Hubot README](https://hubot.github.com/docs/#getting-started-with-hubot)
to create your Hubot. You'll have a new directory from
which `bin/hubot` starts a vanilla Hubot instance with
the shell backend.
2. In your Hubot's directory, install the Zulip adapter. Run:
`npm install --save hubot-zulip`
3. On your {{ settings_html|safe }}, create a bot account. Note
its username, API key and full name; you will use them on the
next step.
4. To run Hubot locally, first, set the following environment
variables by running:
```
export HUBOT_ZULIP_SITE="{{ external_api_path_subdomain }}"
export HUBOT_ZULIP_BOT="hubot-bot@example.com"
export HUBOT_ZULIP_API_KEY="your_key"
```
Then, run:
`bin/hubot --adapter zulip --name "myhubot"`
The `--name` parameter must match the name you gave the bot on
the settings page.
Hubot will automatically listen for commands on all public streams.
You can also invite Hubot to invite-only streams.
To test your Hubot installation, send it an @-notification with a
basic command, for example `@Hubot pug me`, which should produce a
result like this:
