slack-progress-bar 1.1.0

A Python package for displaying progress bars in Slack messages.

slack-progress-bar

A Python library for adding a progress bar to a Slack Bot, updated for Python 3.9+.

Installation

pip install slack-progress-bar

Tutorial

1. Setup your bot using the Slack API and grab the associate bot token.
2. Get the user_id for the person you want to receive updates. This can be found by going to a Slack profile and clicking Copy member ID.

import time
progress_bar = SlackProgressBar(token=BOT_TOKEN, user_id=SLACK_MEMBER_ID, total=150)
for i in range(151):
   time.sleep(0.1)
   progress_bar.update(i)

Instantiating a SlackProgressBar will send a message to your Slack user featuring your empty progress bar. Calling update() will update that progress bar on Slack. To create a new progress bar, instantiate a new instance of SlackProgressBar.
