Slack API in Go =============== You can chat with us on the #slack-go, #slack-go-ja Slack channel on the Gophers Slack. This library supports most if not all of the REST calls, as well as the Real-Time Messaging protocol over websocket, in a fully managed way. Project Status There is currently no major version released. Therefore, minor version releases may include backward incompatible changes. See Releases for more information about the changes. Go Versions supported We support the same versions of Go as the officially supported Go versions (see Go Release Policy).

Minimal Socket Mode usage: See https://github.com/slack-go/slack/blob/master/examples/socketmode/socketmode.go Minimal RTM usage: As mentioned in https://api.slack.com/rtm - for most applications, Socket Mode is a better way to communicate with Slack. See https://github.com/slack-go/slack/blob/master/examples/websocket/websocket.go Minimal EventsAPI usage: See https://github.com/slack-go/slack/blob/master/examples/eventsapi/events.go Socketmode Event Handler (Experimental) When using socket mode, dealing with an event can be pretty lengthy as it requires you to route the event to the right place. Instead, you can use much like you use an HTTP handler to register which event you would like to listen to and what callback function will process that event when it occurs.
