A rust crate for sending messages to Slack via webhooks.

Slack is a messaging platform for team collaboration.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
slack-hook = "0.1"

Add the crate to your existing project:

extern crate slack_hook;
use slack_hook::{Slack, Payload, PayloadTemplate};

fn main() {
    let slack = Slack::new("https://hooks.slack.com/services/abc/123/45z");
    let p = Payload::new(PayloadTemplate::Complete {
      text: Some("test message"),
      channel: Some("#testing"),
      username: Some("My Bot"),
      icon_url: None,
      icon_emoji: Some(":chart_with_upwards_trend:"),
      attachments: None,
      unfurl_links: Some(true),
      link_names: Some(false)
    });

    let res = slack.send(&p);
    match res {
        Ok(()) => println!("ok"),
        Err(x) => println!("ERR: {:?}",x)
    }
}

Attachments

To create a payload with just an attachment:

extern crate slack_hook;
use slack_hook::{Payload, PayloadTemplate, Attachment, AttachmentTemplate};

fn main() {
  let p = Payload::new(PayloadTemplate::Attachment {
    attachment: Attachment::new(AttachmentTemplate::Text {
      text: "my text",
      color: "#b13d41",
    }).unwrap(),
  });
}
