SimplerSlack

A way to make simple slack bots that receive message, and respond to them.

The idea behind this package is that it has a very small surface area. As such, it only supports message and user_typing events.

Installation

1. Add simpler_slack to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

```elixir
def deps do
  [{:simpler_slack, "~> 0.0.2"}]
end
```

Usage

To use SimplerSlack, you need to use it

defmodule SimpleBot do
 use SimplerSlack

 def slack_message(%{channel: channel, token: token, user: user} = state) do
   IO.inspect state
   send_message("Hey <@#{format_user_id(user)}>", channel, token)
 end

 def slack_user_typing(_), do: nothing
end

SimpleBot.start_link("your-slack-token")

This adds the behaviour SimplerSlack.Client to the module. This means you must implement both slack_message(state) and slack_user_typing(state).

Both of those function must also return nil. These functions are cast's, so they are concurrent. If you want to keep things quick, i'd suggest keeping These functions small, and call cast's on other GenServer's from here
