slack-imagemacro
Slack Bot that shows image macros
/macro for slack.
Usage
/macro suchdiff
Setup
First you need to create imagemacros JSON file in the following format:
{
"<image-macro-name>": "<image-url>",
..
}
Example:
{
"imagemacro-name": "http://example.com/images/imagemacro-name.png",
"suchdiff": "http://example.com/images/suchdiff.gif"
}
If you have image macros in Phabricator you can export them as imagemacros file by running bin/export > imagemacros.json which will create imagemacros.json file with data in correct format. bin/export script requires you to have https://github.com/phacility/arcanist and https://stedolan.github.io/jq installed.
Optionally you may want to upload imagemacro file as well as images to s3. You can do that by running bin/export | bin/sync -b <s3-bucket> -p <key-prefix> -i <path-to-imagemacros-json>.
Slash Command
Create a Slash Command called /macro, set the method to POST and point the URL to:
https://your-slack-imagemacro-instance.example.com/macro
Server
Run the slack-imagemacro server with your Slack Command token and imagemacros URL or path to imagemacros file:
$ node server.js --token=<token> --macros https://s3.amazonaws.com/my-s3-bucket/macros/imagemacros.json
$ node server.js --token=<token> --macros ./path-to-imagemacros.json
