Slack

The Slack package provides functionality for sending messages to Slack channels using the Slack API.

Installation

To install the Slack package, you can use npm or yarn:

or

yarn add @bondsports/slack

Usage

You can use the Slack Client by importing it into your TypeScript code:

import { SlackClient } from '@bondsports/slack';

// Initialize SlackClient with your Slack API token, environment, and default channel
const slackClient = new SlackClient('your-api-token', 'production', '#general');

// Send a message to Slack
slackClient.sendMessage('Hello, Slack!').then((success) => {
    if (success) {
        console.log('Message sent successfully');
    } else {
        console.error('Failed to send message');
    }
});

The SlackClient constructor takes three parameters:

• token: A string representing your Slack API token.
• environment: A string representing the environment in which the client operates.
• defaultChannel: A string representing the default channel to which messages will be sent.

Example:
