• Asynchronous logging with async/await support.
• Configurable to fit various logging needs.

Installation

Configuration:

Before you start, ensure you have created an Incoming Webhook in Slack and have the webhook URL ready. For more information on setting up Incoming Webhooks in Slack, visit Slack's API documentation.

Usage

Here is a basic example of how to use the Slack Log package to send a message to your Slack channel:

.env 🚨

...
SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL="https://hooks.slack.com/services/******/******/********************"
...

import { slack } from "slack-logs";
or
const { slack } = require('slack-logs');

/*Slack Notification with default format*/
slack.log("Data", [{ title: "1yes!" }]);
slack.log("Data", { title: "2yes!" });
slack.log("Data", "Hello world!");

/*Slack Notification with block format*/
const payload = [
{ title: "Title 1", value: "1234" },
{ title: "Title 2", value: 123 },
{ title: "Title 3", value: { id: 12 } },
{ title: "Title 3", value: [{ id: 12 }] },
];
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload);

/*Slack Notification with colored block format*/

import { LogLevel, slack } from "slack-logs";

const payload = [
{ title: "Title 1", value: "1234" },
{ title: "Title 2", value: 123 },
{ title: "Title 3", value: { id: 12 } },
{ title: "Title 3", value: [{ id: 12 }] },
];
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.DEFAULT);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.ERROR);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.INFO);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.SUCCESS);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.WARN);
