slackwatch

Run some commands or hit some URLs when DMed on Slack

Create a .slackwatch config file in your home directory. See config.json for an example. If a URL is specified, the presence of a Body determines an HTTP GET or POST.

   {
     "SlackToken": "xoxp-123-543",
     "Actions": [
       { "Command": "/usr/bin/afplay", "Args": "klaxon.wav" },
       { "URL": "https://hassio.local/api/services/homeassistant/turn_on?api_password=letmein",
         "Body": "{\"entity_id\":\"switch.bat_signal\"}"
       }
     ]
   }

Alternatively, you can create your own actions to preform that conform to the Action interface and pass your config to the slackwatch.New constructor.
