Slack API Bundle

This project is a Symfony bundle for interacting with the Slack.com API. The purpose is to provide an easy framework for writing bots and other tools that interact with your Slack team.

Some features this bundle provides:

• A default route (and associated controller) that catches all Slack webhooks
• Dispatcher service that allows services to register and listen for certain webhook events
• Guzzle Services-based client for the main API
• Handling for outgoing webhooks, incoming webhooks, slash commands, remote Slackbot, and the main API (RTM websockets coming soon)

Right now the project is still in development, but is almost ready for release. However, I'd still recommend taking caution when using this for your team until the 1.0 is released.

Installation

Step 0: Install Symfony

This program technically can be used without Symfony, since it only depends on certain components, but obviously if you are making a new project it will be a lot easier to just use this bundle with the Symfony standard edition.

Step 1: Download the Bundle

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute the following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:

$ composer require castlepointanime/slack-api-bundle

This command requires you to have Composer installed globally, as explained in the [installation chapter](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) of the Composer documentation.

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

Then, enable the bundle by adding the following line in the app/AppKernel.php file of your project:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

// ...
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            // ...

            new CastlePointAnime\SlackApiBundle\SlackApiBundle(),
        );

        // ...
    }

    // ...
}

Use

Documentation is still in the works. In the near future, the following links will show you how to use this bundle:

• Configuring the Bundle
• Setting up a Slack Module Service (SMS)
• Talking Back to the Slack API

If you have any questions that you think should be answered in the documentation, file an issue on GitHub.
