A .Net command line interface for sending slack messages via Slack Incoming Webhooks
Just open slack.sln and build. The build combines all dependencies into the executable using Fody + Costura.
First set up your incoming webhook for the app to use. Usually users will set the webhook url in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:Webhook and that is enough to send messages using slack "Hello World!"
slack [options] "<message>"
Options:
-w, --webhook Supply the url to post this message to. This can also be set in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:Webhook
-c, --channel Supply the channel to post this message to. This can also be set in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:Channel
-u, --username Supply the username to post this message as. This can also be set in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:Username
-e, --iconemoji Supply the emoji to post with this message. This can also be set in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:IconEmoji
-i, --iconurl Supply the icon url to post with this message. Overrides --iconemoji. This can also be set in slack.exe.config at appSettings/Slack:IconUrl
-a, --attachments Supply the path to a json formatted file that describes the message attachments. Use --help attachments for more information
-h, --help Show this help message or extended help for other command options
Required:
<message> The message to send. You should enclose this string in quotes
This command:
slack -c #random -u my-bot "Hello I'm a bot!"
is the same as:
slack --channel #random --username my-bot "Hello I'm a bot!"
