Slack publisher

In order to use the library add the dependency to your project.clj

;; Leiningen project
[com.brunobonacci/mulog-slack "x.x.x"]

;; deps.edn format
{:deps { com.brunobonacci/mulog-slack {:mvn/version "x.x.x"}}}

Current version:

The events must be serializeable in JSON format (see How to JSON encode custom Java classes for more info.)

First get an Incoming Webhook in Slack following these steps:

• Create a Slack App, go to: https://api.slack.com/apps/new
• App Name put something like mulog, then select the workspace, and click in Create App
• Enable Incoming Webhooks, In the app settings, Basic Information -> Add features and functionality, click on Incoming Webhooks, then click on the toggle to enable it.
• Create an Incoming Webhook by clicking on Add New Webhook to Workspace, select the channel where to send the notifications and click on Allow.
• In the WebHook URL table you should see a new entry for the channel you just added in the form of https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX note the URL you will need it later.

The available configuration options:

{:type :slack

 ;; Slack webhook url (REQUIRED)
 :webhook-url  "https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

 ;; a function to select and/or transform the events to send (REQUIRED)
 ;; Select only the events you wish to see in your Slack channel
 ;; A simpler way to express filter is by using [where](https://github.com/BrunoBonacci/where)
 ;; With where the following filter would look like:
 ;; :transform (partial filter (where :mulog/event-name :in? [:my-event1 :my-event2]))
 :transform (partial filter #(#{:my-event1 :my-event2} (:mulog/event-name %)))


 ;; the maximum number of events which can be sent in a single
 ;; batch request Slack
 ;; :max-items     20

 ;; Interval in milliseconds between publish requests.
 ;; μ/log will try to send the records to Slack
 ;; with the interval specified.
 ;; :publish-delay 3000

 ;; You can customize the appearance of the messages by providing
 ;; a function which takes an event and returns one or more blocks
 ;; ad described here: https://api.slack.com/reference/block-kit/blocks
 ;; :render-message (fn [event] )

 }

How to use it:

(μ/start-publisher!
  {:type        :slack
   :webhook-url "https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
   :transform   (partial filter #(= :my-event1 (:mulog/event-name %)))})

Once you send a message you should get a Slack notification which looks as follow:

You can customize the look by providing a :render-message function which returns one or more Slack Blocks.
