MMM-Slack stop randomise messages
-
@mediathreat we followed the link in the readme https://api.slack.com/tokens and from there we created our own app. I’m sorry I can’t find where I found the token in there, you will have to try and error your way :) I will keep looking some but can’t guarantee I find anything. Slack API pages are a mess imo. And no you don’t need the leading # in the config file.
-
@mediathreat here is the correct link to create your token: https://api.slack.com/custom-integrations/legacy-tokens

Thanks! This nailed it perfectly! Hopefully the MMM-SLACK package maintainer might add this info to be clearer. Now that I have it working, I wonder if I can go in and see if I can add showing photos from a slack channel to the code base
-
@saibam do you think its possible to modify the code to get images or links that are posted into the slack channel and display them on the magic mirror?
-
@mediathreat I think it is possible, as long as the images have some kind of html address or similar, but I have no idea how to do it. I’ve moved on to other projects now :) almost finished an arcade cabinet :D
