tdeck / teambot Goto Github PK

I haven't investigated this yet but it's been shown in the wild

I'm willing to do this work too.

For larger channels that might be a point of entry for newcomers seeking help, having an @team record would ping too many people. But it's useful, so I got a request form @JakeWharton to support adding a redirect message that points them to more specific channels.

Not sure how to implement this right now. The suggestion was @TeamHere, but that requires a second bot user account to share the same team directory.

I think I want this to be behind a config flag. There are a couple ways we can make this less spammy. One is to send the duplicate message with the mentions (so it triggers a notification), then delete it (so it doesn't clutter the channel). Not sure how well that'll work but I want to try it.
