How does one set the HUBOT_GOOGLE_HANGOUTS_DOMAIN for a regular gmail account (not a google apps account)?

The two domains I have are locked down. :/

When I get links generated like this, I don't see where to put a domain - https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/g2p33dpcj3htcwhhidd2l6pxnma

If it helps, I've noticed that domains generally prefix the generated hangout ID, meaning your URL could be:

https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/<domain>/id

There's also a query string parameter authuser=n which specifies which account to use in the chat if you're logged into more than one account.

YMMV.

So basically this only works with google apps (have domains) and not regular gmail accounts (no donains).

Not sure, I was just talking about the URLs generated for G for domain hangouts, I may be misunderstanding the problem.

EDIT: Just checked the generated URL by visiting https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/, it generates a similar URL to the one you posted. Is there something missing here that I've misread?

[ferventcoder]

The one I posted has no domain. Just _/id

[ferventcoder]

Ah for what you may be missing - the hubot script requires the environment variable to be set.

[KrofDrakula]

Oh, I see. So something like

export HUBOT_GOOGLE_HANGOUTS_DOMAIN=''

would result in

https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_//<id>

... which doesn't work. Maybe filter the double slash in the plugin code?

Any tips on this? I dont have a Google Apps account just a normal Gmail account

Has anybody tried the #9 solution?

I just saw the link. :) I might give it a shot and let you know.
