BizDoc.Core.Slack 6.5.7

Slack for BizDoc

BizDoc pushes messages and notifications into Slack and responds to actions in Slack on messages.

To utilize Slack messaging, add in program.cs.

builder.Services.AddBizDoc().AddSlack(o => {
	o.Token = "{token-here}";
	o.ChannelId = "{channel-id-here}";
});


app.UseBizDoc().UseSlack();

Use app-level token.

Socket

To enable socket for background communication, call UseSocket().

builder.Services.AddBizDoc().AddSlack(o => { ... }, 
	e => e.UseSocket());

You can configure ProxySettings on this option.

Remember to enable Socket Mode in app config.

Responding to events

builder.Services.AddBizDoc().
	AddSlack(o => {
		...
		o.OnMessageReceived = e => {
			if(e.Message is ChannelMessage cm && cm.Message is NewMessage msg)
				Debug.Write($"Message text '{msg.Text}'");
		}
	});

You can notify the user by setting the event Response properties.

	e.Response.Text = Markdown($"*{ctx.Document.Number}* success!");

Message types.

Service

Inject SlackService service.

Intercept outgoing messages

Implement the OnMessagePost option in AddSlack() to contribute an outgoing message.

Use the IDocumentContext to access form model using the GetModel() method.

using BizDoc.Slack.Models;

builder.Services.AddBizDoc().AddSlack(o => {
	...
	o.OnMessagePost = e => {
		var model = e.Context.GetModel<MyModel>();
	
		var section = new Section("form_section");
		section.Fields.Add(new Text(model.Title));
		
		e.Request.Blocks.Add(section);
	}
});

Block can be one of Section, Image, Input or Actions, which corresponds to Block Kit.

Element can be one of InputElement, DatePicker, Checkboxes, RadioButtons, Select, MultiSelect, ImageElement or Button. Use Text or Markdown to represent texts.
