          }
        }
      ]
    }

    // Transform Slack data model to Generic model
    var genericModel = channelTransformer.transformSlackToGeneric(slackDataModel);

    // Transfrom back from Generic model to Slack data model
    var slackModel = channelTransformer.transformGenericToSlack(genericModel);

    console.log(genericModel, slackModel);
  </script>

ES6

  npm i @onereach/channel-transformer

import {
  transformSlackToGeneric,
  transformGenericToSlack
} from '@onereach/channel-transformer';

Node.js

  npm i @onereach/channel-transformer

const {
  transformSlackToGeneric,
  transformGenericToSlack
} = require('@onereach/channel-transformer');

const slackDataModel = {
	"blocks": [
		{
			"type": "section",
			"text": {
				"type": "mrkdwn",
				"text": "This is a mrkdwn section block :ghost: *this is bold*, and ~this is crossed out~, and <https://google.com|this is a link>"
			}
		}
	]
}



// Transform Slack data model to Generic model
const genericModel = transformSlackToGeneric(slackDataModel);

// Transfrom back from Generic model to Slack data model
const slackModel = transformGenericToSlack(genericModel);

console.log(genericModel, slackModel);

Developing: ✅ Tests for Slack -> Generic -> Slack ✅ Export types ✅ Can be imported in any js env

Microsoft Teams channel
Zoom channel

How it works

Sample: Microsoft Teams and Slack

Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards data model 👉 transform to default data model 👉 transform from default data model to Slack Block kit data model
Slack Block kit data model 👉 transform to default data model 👉 transform from default data model to Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards data model

Generic data model schema based on rule:

All data soted in Array of Object. Each object have three required and only possible properties:

type - type is unic name of field
props - all settings, states and so on of field
children - Array of Objects dependent elements

Sample:

[
  {
    type: 'section',
    props: {
      variableName: '...',
      column: 2,
      value: ''
    },
    children: []
  },
  {
    type: 'input',
    props: {
      value: '',
      required: true
    },
    children: []
  }
]

Create new brnach
Copy structure of anu channel (Slack, Web) in ./src/channels
Export main functions to ./src/
