A stateless slack api for sending info to slack

Slack bot api

What?

Some times we need to send a message to slack and this api will send a message for you!

Pre reqs?

So, in order to use this api there are a few requirements.

• You must send the Content-Type header as application/vnd.api+json, because this api follows the JSON API spec
• For every request you must also send an additional header called slack-bot-token which is the Bot User OAuth Access Token given with a slack app under "OAth & Permissions"

How do I use it?

There are only 2 endpoints

• GET / is just a friendly message Status: 200

{
    "data": {
        message: 'Welcome to the slack api microservice.'
    }
}

• POST / which is basically just a wrapper around slack's chat.postMessage endpoint Status: 200

{
    "data": {...slackresponse}
}
