Simple Slack Send - send Slack notifications in CI pipelines

Simple Slack Send - easily send slack messages in your CI pipelines

Simple Slack Send is designed to push templated slack notifications from you CI pipelines using Slack's incoming webhooks.

Template engine

Simple Slack Send uses Jinja2 under the hood to produce Slack messages in JSON format. You can use any expression (values, includes, conditions, loops etc.) that is allowed by Jinja. If the rendering engine's output is empty, no message is sent.

Parameter sources

Jinja templates are fed with values from multiple sources given as command arguments:

1. env files with key-value pairs ie. -e production.env or --env-file=staging.env
2. json files ie. -j terraform-output.json or --env-file=infrastructure.json
3. key-value pairs provided as command arguments ie. -v env_name=jupiter or --var instance_type=small
4. system environment - turned on/off with --sys-env/--no-sys-env option; on by default

Configuration

You can pass Slack's webhook url by settings SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL env variable or using --webhook-url argument.
