Welcome

Slackify is a collection of web and backend microsservices (overengineerd yet i know) used to query Spotify and get your currently listening to track and update your status within Slack.

This repository is the webserver side of the application, the rest is still in development and will be available soon

Example:

Getting started

Before you start you will need to set the following environment variables:

SLACK_CLIENT_ID="YOUR_SLACK_APP_CLIENT_ID_HERE",
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID="YOUR_SPOTIFY_APP_CLIENT_ID_HERE",
SLACK_REDIRECT_URI="https://localhost:8080/slack/callback",
SPOTIFY_REDIRECT_URI="http://localhost:8181/spotify/callback",
BASE64_ENCODED_SPOTIFY_CREDENTIALS="YOUR_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID_AND_SECRET_TOGETHER_SEPERATED_BY_A_:_BASED64_ENCODED"
SLACK_CLIENT_SECRET="YOUR_SLACK_APP_CLIENT_SECRET"
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="YOUR_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"
AWS_REGION="THE_REGION_OF_YOUR_DYNAMO_DB"

You will also need an aws account and a user configured with cli access (access key / secret etc) and access to a dynamodb instance in your preferred region.

When the web application starts it will actually start 3 webservers:

• The main webserver listening on 1234
• The Spotify callback handler listening on port 8080
• The Slack callback handler listening on port 8181
