An asychronous HTTP client wrapping Slack's RPC-style web api. Provides an extensible API with builder-style parameters and responses, allowing you to focus on your interactions with users, rather than your interactions with Slack. Notably, we:
- Implement most of Slack's web API
- Actively maintain this project
- Provide per-method in-memory rate limiting so you don't have to worry about overwhelming slack from a single process
- Expose highly configurable hooks to allow custom rate limiting, method filtering, and debugging in an extensible way
We currently support:
- auth.test
- auth.revoke
- channels.history
- channels.info
- channels.kick (kickUserFromChannel)
- channels.list
- channels.replies (findReplies)
- chat.delete
- chat.getPermalink
- chat.postEphemeral
- chat.postMessage
- chat.update
- conversations.archive
- conversations.create
- conversations.history
- conversations.info
- conversations.invite
- conversations.list
- conversations.open
- conversations.unarchive
- dialog.open
- files.upload

- groups.kick (kickUserFromGroup)
- groups.list
- groups.replies (findReplies)
- im.open
- reactions.add
- search.messages
- team.info
- usergroups.create
- usergroups.disable
- usergroups.enable
- usergroups.list
- usergroups.update

We happily welcome any PRs for APIs that haven't yet been implemented!
To use with Maven-based projects, add the following dependencies::
<dependency>
<groupId>com.hubspot.slack</groupId>
<artifactId>slack-base</artifactId>
<version>{latest version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.hubspot.slack</groupId>
<artifactId>slack-java-client</artifactId>
<version>{latest version}</version>
</dependency>Latest version can be seen here, on Maven central.
Install the SlackClientModule in the Guice module you want to use to talk to slack.
public class MyFancyModule extends AbstractModule {
@Override
protected void configure() {
install(new SlackClientModule());
}
}Finally inject the factory where you want to build the client:
public class MySlacker {
private final SlackClient slackClient;
public MySlacker(
SlackWebClient.Factory clientFactory
) {
this.slackClient = clientFactory.build(
SlackClientRuntimeConfig.builder()
.setTokenSupplier(() -> "your token here")
// ... all your configuration here
.build()
);
}
// then just use the client!
}If you're not familiar with Java 8's CompletableFuture API, know that you can transform this client from an asynchronous one to a synchronous one by calling join on any of the futures returned. To simplify getting started, we've included an example module with some common tasks to give you a feel for how you can interact with the client.
