Carpool command

[justinxreese]

Should say "dont forget about the #carpool channel if anyone needs a ride to the event tonight" 3 hours before every event

Sounds good, I'd like to work on this if it's not assigned yet.

[justinxreese]

@recurza go for it :) I'm having trouble assigning you right now

You'll want the EVENTS_URL environment variable. It is http://cs-jaromir.herokuapp.com/api/v1/events.json

[glowcone]

Should I set EVENTS_URL="http://cs-jaromir.herokuapp.com/api/v1/events.json" in process.env or in /bin/hubot?

I'm thinking of using node-cron or hubot-cron to do the scheduling, is that a good idea?

[justinxreese]

I'd even consider that a pleasant artifact to reuse elsewhere

The app will know to read that from your environment. You can do 'export
EVENTS_URL=that bin/hubot' as the command if you'd like. Sorry for poor
formatting. Answering from email on my phone. Let me know if that is
unclear

Got the env variable working! 😁 Also, I found a new module hubot-schedule which seems more suitable for scheduling events.
Now there's a problem: supplybot doesn't know when the events are updated, because it only reads from the json file, so it can't schedule a new timer for the event. Should we tell it to check every time someone does supplybot-list, or only allow events to be scheduled through supplybot?

Lets check whenever someone does a list. Thats a good balance.
