slack-send v1.0.8

slack-send

This is a command-line tool for sending messages to Slack. It was primarily designed for automation, to provide an easy way to send rich, detailed messages from things like CI/CD build systems, deployment scripts and other automated systems.

Features

• Send rich detailed messages from your automated systems to Slack.
• Use "attachers" to add attachments containing useful information.
• Easily create your own "attachers" to augment your messages with additional useful information.
• Supports Slack message threading, so instead of having all the messages from all your tools jumbled together and trying to pick out the relevant parts, you can send an initial message to the channel about what process is starting, and then send detailed information about that process to a thread for anyone that might need details.
• Flexible configuration options

Notes

Note that this tool uses the chat.postMessage API, which has it's own rate limiting.
