An example slack integration that listens to registry hook events on an npm-hook-receiver and posts about them in a Slack channel.
To run the integration, set the required environment variables then run the index file:
node index.js
All configuration is done with environment variables. These are the vars used:
variable | meaning | required? | default |
---|---|---|---|
SLACK_API_TOKEN | the API token you generated in Slack | y | - |
SLACK_CHANNEL | the ID of the Slack channel to post to (not its name!) | y | - |
SHARED_SECRET | the shared secret set up for the hooks you'll be receiving | y | - |
PORT | the port number to listen on | n | 6666 |
MOUNT_POINT | the path to mount the hook on | n | /incoming |
SERVICE_NAME | used in logging | n | hooks-bot |
INFER_BOT_USER | post as the inferred bot user (bot needs to be in the channel!) | n | - |
