pr-slack-bot

A repo with a workflow for posting to a team's slack channel when a pr is merged.

The team is taken from the last nine characters of the repo name.

To use:

• Generate a Slack OAuth Token (see: https://docs.celigo.com/hc/en-us/articles/7140655476507-How-to-create-an-app-and-retrieve-OAuth-token-in-Slack
  • This involves creating a slack app
• Define an organization level secret: SLACK_BOT_USER_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN with that value
• Define an organization level variable called TEAM_TO_CHANNEL which is a JSON object mapping the last nine characters of the repo (typically team name) to team channel
• Install the slack app in every team channel (see below)

Installing the app

Installing looks like this when successful:
