wasb

Write a Slack bot in Go

Quickstart

1. Create a new bot user on Slack.

2. Prepare a new config file for the bot.

    cp config.json.template echo-config.json
   

3. Update the config with the bot's API token.

4. Run the bot by running the following command.

    go run cmd/echo/echo.go -config=echo-config.json
   

Write your own

Your custom bot needs to implement the WASB interface as shown below.

type WASB interface {
	ReceiveMessage() (*Msg, error)
	IsValidMessage(m *Msg) bool
	SendMessage(m *Msg) error
	TearDown() error
}

See how Echo implements it in cmd/echo/echo.go.
