This is a fork of os/slacker
It's only purpose is to allow slack-export to function to a usable degree.
Slacker is a full-featured Python interface for the Slack API.
$ pip install slackerfrom slacker import Slacker
slack = Slacker('<your-slack-api-token-goes-here>')
# Send a message to #general channel
slack.chat.post_message('#general', 'Hello fellow slackers!')
# Get users list
response = slack.users.list()
users = response.body['members']
# Upload a file
slack.files.upload('hello.txt')
# If you need to proxy the requests
proxy_endpoint = 'http://myproxy:3128'
slack = Slacker('<your-slack-api-token-goes-here>',
http_proxy=proxy_endpoint,
https_proxy=proxy_endpoint)
# Advanced: Use `request.Session` for connection pooling (reuse)
from requests.sessions import Session
with Session() as session:
slack = Slacker(token, session=session)
slack.chat.post_message('#general', 'All these requests')
slack.chat.post_message('#general', 'go through')
slack.chat.post_message('#general', 'a single https connection')
