Universal Slack/Discord to Console Bot

  1. Hi all,

    To push commands to multiple, it would be great if a Bot could use the premise of the plugin Slack | Oxide to check a channel for new comments and then use the contents of that message to run a console command. This would be awesome for pushing things out :)

    This would require an extension, not plugin, as plugins can't listen to sockets and such. The Slack plugin you linked also does not do this, it only sends.
     
  3. Ahhh I see! I knew it would be a bit more involved since it was reaching out to check slack instead of sending. Yep I understand I was just thinking that some of the code could maybe be used for referencing a channel and the initial Integration API's with slack to save some work.

    I'm not sure how involved this is although I understand it's more than the normal. Just thought I'd request it in case it was on the easier side to do :)
