A slack bot for generating ideas - adds three cards to the channel - an example is described here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/blog/2019-10-ideas-generation-slack-slackbot
It uses a public trello for the cards and downloads and processes them into images at the start (a csv file could be used instead)
From https://my.slack.com/services/new/bot
Use a recent version of node - https://nodejs.org/en/
npm install
you can use `ideabot.service` with systemd
SLACK_API_TOKEN="yourkey" idea_slackbot_from_trello.js col_name1 col_name2 col_name3
Then from within slack, invite it to a channel and then mention it
/invite @idea_generator
hello @idea_generator
say 'bot cards' to start, then you can say 'bot user', 'bot weird', 'bot nicer', 'bot reload'
(these are hardcoded to particular columns)
