slack-post v0.3.1

Slack-Post

Implements the basic api of Slack, so we can post things from scripts. It can also do the rest too.

##Usage

Test your authentication:

export SLACK_TOKEN=<your key>
slack-post --channel C02JX4Z21 --username Bot chat.postMessage

Get message history of a channel:

export SLACK_TOKEN=<your key>
slack-post --channel C02JX4Z21 --username Bot channels.history

Get information of a channel:

export SLACK_TOKEN=<your key>
slack-post --channel C02JX4Z21 --username Bot channels.info

Post some message from a script:

export SLACK_TOKEN=<your key>
echo "I have perfected posting to Slack from the cli" | slack-post --channel C02JX4Z21 --username Bot chat.postMessage
