Filter out github bot slack messages. Inspired by Christian Sepulveda since this is still an issue.
First set up your .env
export SLACK_BOT_TOKEN=<>
export SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=<>
export FORWARD_CHANNEL_ID=<>
Install ngrok and run it
ngrok http 3000
In another terminal set up python and run the local server:
source .env
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
./.venv/bin/uvicorn app:api --reload --port 3000 --log-level warning
Slack bot token: https://api.slack.com/apps/A04B2CURD6K/oauth?
Slack Signing Secret: https://api.slack.com/apps/A04B2CURD6K/general?
Forward channel id: good luck Go to the #twig-internal channel, click the name at the top to open the info modal, and on the About tab, scroll all the way down - you should see the channel ID there.
Install fly.io, log in and run:
flyctl launch, choose a unique name, choose a region, No PSQL, No Redis, No need for .dockerignore, don't deploy just yet
fly set secrets ... for each individual secret in the .env
fly deploy
If you've made changes, and you want to deploy the changes, just run fly deploy again.
- There was a time when GitHub Raven stopped working, without any explanation. After some investigation, it wasn't really clear what the issue was. In this sort of situation, you can:
- Go to https://api.slack.com/methods/auth.test/test. Paste the
SLACK_BOT_TOKENand check that you get a good response from the Slack API ("ok": true, etc.) - Ultimately, re-deploying the app by resetting the secrets on Fly.io and then running
fly deployhelped. Not sure why though...
