To make all bots consistent add shared function in bot_lib.py to check if this bot is called. All bots respond to at-mention of the bot instead of their specific names. |

DefineBot
-
This is a bot that defines a word that the user inputs. Whenever the user inputs a message starting with '@define', the bot defines the word that follows.
-
The definitions are brought to the website using an API. The bot posts the definition of the word to the stream from which the user inputs the message. If the user inputs a word that does not exist or a word that is incorrect or is not in the dictionary, the definition is not displayed.
-
For example, if the user says "@define crash", all the meanings of crash appear, each in a separate line.
- If the user enters a wrong word, like "@define cresh" or "@define crish", then an error message saying no definition is available is displayed.
