I used node.js to build my slack bot. I used @slack/client
. its works fine.
now I have a JSON formatted data got through slack message builder
.
like this,
{
"attachments": [
{
"fallback": "Required plain-text summary of the attachment.",
"color": "#36a64f",
"pretext": "Optional text that appears above the attachment block",
"author_name": "Bobby Tables",
"author_link": "http://flickr.com/bobby/",
"author_icon": "http://flickr.com/icons/bobby.jpg",
"title": "Slack API Documentation",
"title_link": "https://api.slack.com/",
"text": "Optional text that appears within the attachment",
"fields": [
{
"title": "Priority",
"value": "High",
"short": false
}
],
"image_url": "http://my-website.com/path/to/image.jpg",
"thumb_url": "http://example.com/path/to/thumb.png",
"footer": "Slack API",
"footer_icon": "https://platform.slack-edge.com/img/default_application_icon.png",
"ts": 123456789
}
]
}
if I send this json through the rtm.sendMessage()
function which displays the json text. how to convert this json to formatted slack message? thanks in advance.
There are two ways to send message to slack:
1)rtm.sendMessage('hello ' + user.name + '!', dm.id); and
2)you can use api.chatpost message api ,using request module which is used to send data .
i am using this in my project you can also view this , how i do that.
