Port hubot-slack away from @slack/client?

a-ungurianu opened this issue · 2 comments

Description

@slack/client is marked as deprecated in npm but it still is the underlying API for this adapter.

Are there plans to update this adapter to utilize the new APIs, or is the future expectation to move to Bolt directly, and not utilize hobot all together?

Hi @a-ungurianu, thanks for writing in!

No, there aren't unfortunately. hubot-slack is in its maintenance mode and we won't actively develop it anymore. For new app development, we highly recommend going with either Bolt for JS with Socket Mode or our next-generation beta platform on Deno runtime.

Thanks for updating the Readme. I'll have a look at Blot soon.
