Slack::Incoming::Webhooks

A simple wrapper of slack incoming webhooks in Ruby.

require 'slack/incoming/webhooks'

slack = Slack::Incoming::Webhooks.new "WEBHOOK_URL"
slack.post "Hello World"

# => if your webhook is setup, will message "Hello World"
# => to the default channel you set in slack

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'slack-incoming-webhooks'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install slack-incoming-webhooks

On initialization you can set default payloads by passing an options hash.
Options please refer to incoming-webhooks and chat.postMessage. .

slack = Slack::Incoming::Webhooks.new "WEBHOOK_URL", channel: '#other-channel',
                                                     username: 'monkey-bot'

Once a notifier has been initialized, you can update the default channel or username or attachments or etc.

slack.channel  = '#other-channel'
slack.username = 'monkey-bot'
slack.attachments = [{ color: '#36a64f',  title: 'Slack API Documentation' }]

It is possible to create more richly-formatted messages using Attachments.
slack-incoming-webhooks supports Attachments.

attachments = {
  fallback: "Required plain-text summary of the attachment.",
  color: "#36a64f",
  pretext: "Optional text that appears above the attachment block",
  title: "Slack API Documentation",
  title_link: "https://api.slack.com/",
  text: "Optional text that appears within the attachment",
  image_url: "http://my-website.com/path/to/image.jpg"
}

slack.post "with an attachment", attachments: [attachments]

or setting defaults.

slack = Slack::Incoming::Webhooks.new "WEBHOOK_URL", attachments: [attachments]
slack.post "with an attachment"

or attachments method.

slack.attachments = [{ color: '#36a64f', title: 'Slack API Documentation' }]
