I'm putting these all as one issue for now. Can break them up later once we decide a schedule, implementation plan, etc.

  • Command to get details of next VC meeting "!nextmeeting"
  • Command to get link to brownbag calender
  • Command to get link to brownbag signup form
  • Make sure bot can still post in #announcements if we lock it down
  • Automatic welcome to new members with link to resources, coc, etc.

Ability to disallow posting in announcements channel

@tkshill what does that mean?

tkshill commented

Yeah, I said that weird. I mean that the announcements channel should be like, read only. I'm not sure how we implement that but like, the bot should be able to post in it, and like some official group, but not everyone?

❤️ All of these. Previously when I made a Slack bot we did have to have a server running to listen for when a command was requested. I'll have an investigation as to if there is a better approach available :)

I’d imagine we could use netlify functions for this

https://api.slack.com/events-api#subscriptions - I think that should be possible :D I'll have a mess around over the next week :D

Another bot command which could be cool @VirtualCoffee.io save-that - For when we want to save a link/post somewhere outside of slack.
