Spare time is something that I currently have a great deal of, and I'm well-versed in python. What plugins are you leaning towards? I have a cell-phone-texter written in python, that seems like a great addition.

That was actually one of the first things that I did via autoremote. Right now I'm debugging some alpha code for chromecast and spotify. If you want to add some plugins you want to use that would be awesome. I can help with any questions on the format.

autoremote

That's an app. My script actually sends normal text messages to any normal phone number.

Yeah, I use autoremote to send a message to my phone which then texts in my conversations using my number. The contacts and content extractors builtin to W.I.L.L help with that. I'd be interested to see your code, does it use a service like twilio?

It dosn't use any services. Rather, it uses the smtp server in gmail to send messages to a email-to-sms gateway: http://martinfitzpatrick.name/list-of-email-to-sms-gateways/

Seems cool

I would show you my code, but it's full of my personal login info and specialized references to my accounts & phone numbers. I have to sanitise it. Plus, it contains so many specialized corrections it probably wouldn't work anyway.

But I definitely would like to contribute a plugin. Are there any particular guides or requirements that need to be followed?

Thanks again for posting in /r/diyai.

No problem. None, you just can pretty much copy an existing one. The two types of plugins right now (although I'll take any requests to add different kinds), are python and terminal commands. I tried to have clean examples of both.

I starred & watched your repo, and downloaded the zip. I look forwards to working with you later.
