Broid Integrations is an open source project providing a suite of Activity Streams 2 libraries for unified communications among a vast number of communication platforms.
> Connect your App to Multiple Messaging Channels with One OpenSource Language.

| Simple | Image | Video | Buttons | Location | Phone number |
|:------:|:-----:|:-----:|:-------:|:--------:|:------------:|
| ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | |
_Location, Phone number are platform limitations._
- Instructions to create bot, can be found here.
- Instructions to create app, can be found here.
_Notes:_ Interactive message are only supported on app (with Oauth bot token). Set Redirect URLs (in OAuth & Permissions) to http://127.0.0.1:8080, so you can catch the token.
You can generate one for test with this command: `node bin/oauth.js --new -c client_id -s secret_id
`bash`
npm install --save @broid/slack
`javascript
const BroidSlack = require('@broid/slack');
const slack = new BroidSlack({
token: 'xxxxx',
http: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
port: 8080
}
});
slack.connect()
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(data),
error: err => console.error(Something went wrong: ${err.message}),`
complete: () => console.log('complete'),
});
Slack can also be used with your existing express setup.
`javascript
const BroidSlack = require('@broid/slack');
const express = require("express");
const slack = new BroidSlack({
token: 'xxxxx'
});
const app = express();
app.use("/slack", slack.getRouter());
slack.connect()
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(data),
error: err => console.error(Something went wrong: ${err.message}),
complete: () => console.log('complete'),
});
app.listen(8080);
`
Options available
| name | Type | default | Description |
| ---------------- |:--------:| :--------: | --------------------------|
| serviceID | string | random | Arbitrary identifier of the running instance |
| logLevel | string | info | Can be : fatal, error, warn, info, debug, trace |host
| token | string | | Your access token |
| http | object | | WebServer options (, port) |
broid-slack needs the "Bot User Token" to authenticate against the Slack RTM and Web Client. To obtain this client, you can use the script at bin/oauth.js. You will need your "Client ID" and your "Client Secret":
`sh`
$ ./oauth.js --new --clientID xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --clientSecret yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
This will open your default web browser and guide you to obtain the needeed token (easily spotted starting with: xoxp-). Alternatively you can obtain a "Legacy Token" here.
`javascriptReceived message: ${data}
slack.listen()
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(),Something went wrong: ${err.message}
error: err => console.error(),`
complete: () => console.log('complete'),
});
To send a message, the format should use the broid-schemas.
`javascript
const formatted_message = {
"@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
"type": "Create",
"generator": {
"id": "f6e92eb6-f69e-4eae-8158-06613461cf3a",
"type": "Service",
"name": "slack"
},
"object": {
"type": "Note",
"content": "hello world"
},
"to": {
"type": "Person",
"id": "C1E3X0RRB"
}
};
slack.send(formatted_message)
.then(() => console.log("ok"))
.catch(err => console.error(err));
``
This adapter support the interactive messages
You can find examples of sent and received messages at Broid-Schemas.
