slackbots

Misc bots for slack. Written in Node JS so far. may add some GO ones.

Development

Requires node

node installs a package manager called npm which we use to get packages.

Packages

In the app directory (dicebot for example) you will need to install the required packages They will be saved to a node_modules subdir Each bots README will have the packages you need.

npm install express --save

Running app

To run the bot from the same app directory (dicebot for example)

node app

Testing

to test locally recommend curl as it can inject payloads that some apps need all apps have the hello bot so you can use hello as the keyword and it will responde with "Hello World"

curl http://localhost:3000/<keyword>
