Errbot SlackV3 backend plugin

errbot-backend-slackv3

Slack Events and Real Time Messaging backend for Errbot.

Quick Start

It is recommended to install errbot into a Python virtual environment. The steps are as follows: Note: The examples assume the virtual environment is created as /opt/errbot but you can adapt this path to your needs.

1. Create and activate the virtual environment.

python3 -m venv /opt/errbot
. /opt/errbot/bin/activate

2. Install errbot and slackv3.

pip install errbot[slack]

3. Initialise errbot.

errbot --init

4. Edit config.py to configure the backend with the correct Slack credentials. (See the official documentation of details on how to configure the backend for RTM vs Events)

BACKEND = 'SlackV3'
BOT_IDENTITY = {
    'token': 'xoxb-000000000000-000000000000-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
    #'signing_secret': "xxxxxx",
    #'app_token': "xxxxx"
}

5. Start errbot

errbot -c config.py
