Description

This Hubot adapter connects to your Mattermost server. You can invite your bot to any channel just as a regular user. It listens and perform your commands. The adapter uses mattermost-client for all low level Mattermost communication.

Two authentication methods are supported:

login/password,
personnal access token.

The second one is necessary if the Mattermost server delegates the authentication to another service (for example when using Mattermost shiped with GitLab). Such method is also probably prefered as the token does not reveals original credentials and can be revoked without any impact on the related account.
