slackapi / onboarding-example Goto Github PK

In the example you give, it is not possible for the user to interact with the message (e.g. star/pin).
(Using this: slack.send(response_url, message); )
Instead, using this works fine: slack.send('chat.postMessage', message);

Is there a Python version of this simple Slack webhook app? Can you interlink them?

This is intended as an example for beginners, but assumes a lot of understanding from the network side. Take this for example:

Tunneling
Using ngrok you can port a public url to your local server.

You link to ngrok, but don't explain anything about how it works or what it's doing. As an ngrok user I had no trouble understanding that, but you can't just assume everyone knows or can get up to speed on what ngrok is - particularly in a beginners' tutorial.

If you want to improve your tutorial (and you should, see #1), this would be a great place to start.

Nice simple example but does the app connect to a Slack team?

I've setup the app as per the instructions but there isn't any behaviour to "Add to Slack".

Any suggestions on the simplest way to achieve this?
