# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 bravo-kernel that might even work, haha
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 savant in fact, it already has crud and stuff installed
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 bravo-kernel aha
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 savant its a cakephp 3 app
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 savant you can build an api in the same repo
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 bravo-kernel irc-log-api
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 savant why?
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:22 bravo-kernel maybe I am unclear atm but I would highly prefer a new repo
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 savant if you want to make a pr, go for it
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 bravo-kernel .
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 bravo-kernel app directly hooked into the mysql
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 savant @bravo-kernel well the app is there
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 savant and the slack-irc bridge: https://github.com/cakephp/slackebot
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 bravo-kernel then build whatever frontend next
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 savant we also have the cakebot: https://github.com/cakephp/cakebot
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:21 stefanvangastel *lot
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 stefanvangastel @dakota I hear that a log :P
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 bravo-kernel @savant right, I am proposing to create a new app next to it, crud-json-api
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 savant ignore the description, its actually the web ui
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 savant https://github.com/cakephp/irc.cakephp.org
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 dakota @stefanvangastel You’re a special case :)
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 hmic we all have our points in it. i'm not to decide, so thats about it with me ;)
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 savant bravo-kernel: its a mysql database, with a cake app in front. the cake app is public
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 bravo-kernel we just need to get a better history app :dancer:
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 savant @stefanvangastel yeah thats a good reason to use mattermost
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 bravo-kernel :thumbsup: @dakota, slack is good usability
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 savant but slack won out for a variety of reasons, both good and bad
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:20 stefanvangastel Fyi: We use Mattermost because its an offline on-premise tool that ships with Gitlab :)
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant there were other alternatives - like rocketchat, a better irc interface, etc.
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 hmic like i said, i do not want a discussion of the topic (again).
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 dakota biggest advantage of slack for me is that I can have cakephp slack, work slack, South african developer slack, etc. all in a single application with no need to worry about maintaining servers, etc.
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant so we wanted to pick something with mindshare
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant we’d wager many startups - at least in the us - are doing the same
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant most use irc or slack, and its heavily towards slack
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant none of the core team uses mattermost at work
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:19 savant that was another thing
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:18 savant at least with slack they are making money on those of us that use slack at work
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:18 savant since its running on much lower margins
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:18 bravo-kernel @hmic exactly... keep in control of the content :white_check_mark:
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:18 savant in fact, I’d say its in bigger danger of that
# Jun 27th 2017, 09:18 bravo-kernel and would rather prefer to have access to the irc datasource ;)
