Novactive eZ Slack Bundle

Usage

All the configuration is SiteAccessAware then you can have different one depending on the SiteAccess

Basic Configuration

# config.yml
nova_ezslack:
    system:
        default:
            slack_client_id: "" # The Client Id of your Slack App

Create your own interactions

You have to understands some Slack concepts first: https://api.slack.com/interactive-messages

To sum up:

• A Message is a collection of Attachments
• A Attachment can own Action(s) (Button or Select)
• When, from whithin Slack, a user click on an Action, the callback is called and this callback can update the Message.

This bundle provides 2 concepts to manage that:

• AttachmentProvider: to provide an Attachment to a Message
• ActionProvider: to provide an Action to a Attachment

Now look at this Message:

Now look at the configuration of services and tag to generate it.

 novaezslack.attachment.provider.content.main:
        class: "%novaezslack.attachment.provider.content.class%"
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.attachment.provider", alias: "main"}

    novaezslack.attachment.provider.content.details:
        class: "%novaezslack.attachment.provider.content.class%"
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.attachment.provider", alias: "details"}

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Attachment\BasicActions:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.attachment.provider", alias: "basic-actions"}

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Attachment\States:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.attachment.provider", alias: "states"}

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Action\Hide:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "hide", attachment: "basic-actions" }

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Action\Unhide:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "unhide", attachment: "basic-actions" }

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Action\Trash:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "trash", attachment: "basic-actions" }

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Action\Recover:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "recover", attachment: "basic-actions" }

    Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Interaction\Provider\Action\PublicationChainChangeState:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "publication_chain.change_state", attachment: "states" }

So basically:

• you can inject an Attachment if you define a Service tagged novaezslack.attachment.provider that implements AttachmentProviderInterface

• inject an Action to an Attachment if you define a Service tagged novaezslack.action.provider that implements ActionProviderInterface. Here you also need to provide the Attachment name with attachment key.

Wanna add an attachment "MyAttachmentPart" and "Button1" and "Select2"?

    YOUR_FQDN_CLASS_FOR_MyAttachmentPart_AttachmentProviderInterface:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.attachment.provider", alias: "MyAttachmentPart"}

    YOUR_FQDN_CLASS_FOR_Button1_ActionProviderInterface:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "Button1", attachment: "MyAttachmentPart" }

    YOUR_FQDN_CLASS_FOR_Select2_ActionProviderInterface:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.action.provider", alias: "Select2", attachment: "MyAttachmentPart" }

That is it! Now your turn to code!

Create your own command

You have to understands some Slack concepts first: https://api.slack.com/slash-commands

To sump up:

• A command is trigger from Slack and consist of Text placed after the /command
• A callback URLs is called by Slack to get the Message to display!

This bundle provides a concept of Responder to manage that, it is pretty simple you just have to implement the ResponderInterface and tag your service:

    YOUR_FQDN_CLASS_FOR_MyAttachmentPart_AttachmentProviderInterface:
        tags:
            - { name: "novaezslack.command.responder"}

The trigger of this Responder will be the ClassName, for instance Novactive\Bundle\eZSlackBundle\Core\Slack\Responder\Search will provide the /command search responder.

In your Slack you can then do:

/command classname whatever you want etc --12 --hello=world 

And you will get an array of arguments (without /command and classname) in the public function respond(array $arguments = []): Message; function

That's it!
