// init flint
var flint = new Flint(config);
flint.start();

// say hello
flint.hears('/hello', function(bot, trigger) {
  bot.say('Hello %s!', trigger.personDisplayName);
});

// add flint event listeners
flint.on('message', function(bot, trigger, id) {
  flint.debug('"%s" said "%s" in room "%s"', trigger.personEmail, trigger.text, trigger.roomTitle);
});

flint.on('initialized', function() {
  flint.debug('initialized %s rooms', flint.bots.length);
});

// define express path for incoming webhooks
app.post('/flint', webhook(flint));

// start express server
var server = app.listen(config.port, function () {
  flint.debug('Flint listening on port %s', config.port);
});

// gracefully shutdown (ctrl-c)
process.on('SIGINT', function() {
  flint.debug('stoppping...');
  server.close();
  flint.stop().then(function() {
    process.exit();
  });
});
