How to use

  1. Setup GitHub integration on your Slack team.
  2. Remix this app on Glitch. To use this proxy continuously, you should be remix with logged-in by your Glitch account. (not anonymous user!)
  3. Make remixed Glitch project as private. Putted Slack user ids in .env would leak in public project!!
  4. Open .env and put the pair of Slack user id (or usergroup id) and GitHub account name. See .env file.
  5. Open GitHub repository ➡ Webhooks ➡ Edit button that URL has started with https://hooks.slack.com/.
  6. Replace Payload URL host from hooks.slack.com to [remixed-project-name].glitch.me and click Update webhook button.
  7. Let's try to send mentions at GitHub!

Replace payload URL on GitHub

If your payload URL is like this...

https://hooks.slack.com/services/T01234567/...

you could replace host like this.

https://github-mentions-to-slack.glitch.me/services/T01234567/...

Actually, we think that you are using remixed project. Let's try this:

https://[remixed-project-name].glitch.me/services/T01234567/...
