Sublime Text 3 slack.com integration plugin

A Sublime Text 3 plugin which integrates http://slack.com services.

This plugin is no longer maintained (mainly because I switched to PyCharm). If someone wants to continue work on this, i will give access rights.

Installation

Search for “Slack” package in Sublime Package Control

Configuration

Open “Settings - User” from Preferences -> Package Settings -> Slack

{
    "team_tokens": {
        "Team 1": "team-1-token-goes-here",
        "Team 2": "team-2-token-goes-here",
    },
    "username": "Sublime",
    "username_subtext": "via Sublime",
    "show_plaform_and_name": true,
    "repeat_file_ext": false,
    "avatar_url": "http://simionbaws.ro/icons/sublime-48.png"
}

• "team_tokens" (required)

  • A list of tokens you have, keyed by the team name that the token corresponds to.
  • You can get the token(s) from https://api.slack.com/web#auth (make sure you are authenticated on slack.com with your account)

• "username" (required)

  • defaults to “Sublime”
  • The “sender” username that will be attributed to each message

• "username_subtext"(optional)

  • The parenthetical subtext to show next to your username. Defaults to “via Sublime”.
  • *Note that if set, this setting will override the "show_platform_and_name" setting
  • *Slack enforces that external plugins have parenthetical subtext next to the sender's username for each message. So if this option is omitted AND the "show_platform_and_name" setting is false, Slack adds the default subtext “bot”, e.g., “myUser (bot)”

• "show_platform_and_name" (optional)

  • defaults to true
  • if this is true and no setting is given for username_subtext, will use your name and your platform as the subtext to the username, e.g. “myUser (simion, linux)”

• "repeat_file_ext" (optional)

  • defaults to false
  • If this is true, the name of the file being uploaded with have the extension repeated., e.g. script.py is uploaded as script.py.py.
  • *This is meant to account for the fact that Slack, by default, chops off the file extension when displaying the filename. So uploading a file called script.py shows up in most places in Slack as just having the filename script. With this option set to true, it would show up as script.py in Slack, at the expense of having the actual uploaded filename as script.py.py
  • *See Screenshots below for examples

• "avatar_url" (required)

  • url to the avatar image to use
  • defaults to http://simionbaws.ro/icons/sublime-48.png
