Mattermost Messenger (Version 1.0.1)

Abstract

This package provides the Python module mattermost_messenger containing code to easily send messages to a Mattermost channel. Mattermost is a persistent chat tool. It manages chats in different teams and channels. The chat messages are usually kept for an indefinite time. So you may create a channel to receive notifications from automatic processes to monitor what is going on. The package provides several interfaces. Besides a command line executable it contains classes to send Mattermost messages either directly or in its own thread (to avoid blocking the caller due to network issues). Furthermore, there is a Python logging handler sending log messages to Mattermost.
