NAME

Net::Async::Slack::RTM - realtime messaging support for https://slack.com

DESCRIPTION

This is a basic wrapper for Slack's RTM features.

The realtime messaging API is mostly useful as an event stream. Although it is possible to send messages through this API as well - see "send_message" - the main HTTP API offers more features.

For a full list of events, see https://api.slack.com/events.

METHODS

events

This is the stream of events, as a Ryu::Source.

Example usage:

$rtm->events
    ->filter(type => 'message')
    ->sprintf_methods('> %s', $_->text)
    ->say
    ->await;

send_message

Sends a message to a user or channel.

This is limited (by the Slack API) to the default message formatting mode, so it's only useful for simple messages.

Takes the following named parameters:

• id - custom message ID (optional)

• channel - either a Net::Async::Slack::Channel instance, or a channel ID

METHODS - Internal

You may not need to call these directly. If I'm wrong and you find yourself having to do that, please complain via the usual channels.

connect

Establishes the connection. Called by the top-level Net::Async::Slack instance.
