slackapi-angularjs

AngularJS module wrapper for the Slack Web API and oAuth helpers for token authentication.

Install

bower install --save-dev slackapi-angularjs

or

Download build and reference: <script src="../ng-deg.slackapi.min.js"></script>

Usage

Most methods documented here https://api.slack.com/methods are wrapped in an angular service. So far, only im , and group calls are not supported yet. For a quick POC, you can manually set a default token on deg.slackapi.module.js - Get a token here: https://api.slack.com/web

  slackApi.value("slackConfig", {
  ...
  DefaultToken: ""
  ...
 });
 

Load Module

angular.module("app", ['Deg.SlackApi']);

Inject slackSvc Service

angular.module("app").controller('myCtrl', ['$scope', 'slackSvc', function ($scope, slackSvc) { }]);

Example

angular.module("app").controller('myCtrl', ['$scope', 'slackSvc', function ($scope, slackSvc) {

  slackSvc.search.files($scope.query, function(response){
      if(response.ok){
        // your code here
      }
  });
}]);  

Authentication

First, register your application with Slack here https://api.slack.com/applications/new

• Authorize

Learn more here: https://api.slack.com/docs/oauth

var config = {
  client: "",
  authParms {
    state: "",
    redirect_uri: ""
    ...
  }; 
}
slackSvc.authorize(config.client, config.authParams);

• After redirect, Check state and code values then call

  slackSvc.oauth.access(clientId, clientSecret, code, function (response) {
      if(response.ok){
        //optional : preload you token for further requests
        slackSvc.InitToken(response.access_token);
      }
  });

Manual method call

Most slackSvc methods only take required values as parameters. To call a missing endpoint or to pass more parameters use:

var params{
  token: "",
  channel: "",
  inclusive : 0
}
  slackSvc.ExecuteApiMethod("groups.history", params, function(response){
     // your code here
  });
