Slack Q&A
An easy plug-and-use library for developing Slack BOT that serves a Q&A-like use case.
For NodeJS version, please see https://github.com/lokwkin/slack-qna-node
Description
High level flow:
- User messages this BOT via either:
- Direct Message
- Mention in Channel
- Slack Command
- The BOT shows a loading reaction to the message.
- The BOT relays user's message to your custom handler, and expect for a result either in
Text
,File
orImage
type. - The BOT reply the user's message in Slack Thread.
- The BOT also shows a success reaction to the message.
Note:
- This BOT uses Slack's Socket Mode instead of Webhook mode for slack connection, so it does not require an exposed public endpoint. But your services need to be long running.
