Application to easily post "ShipIt Squirrels" to Slack via slash commands. Written in Go.

{
	"bot_username":"GoShipit",
	"webhook_url":"http://yourApiUrl.GetThisFromSlack/somekey"
}

Then configure GoShipIt in the Configure Integrations section of Slack.

In Slack, go to Home > Integrations and add a slash command intigration for GoShipIt with the following settings:

Command: /goshipit

URL: http://{yourdomain}/slash

Method: POST

Add a new incoming webhook integration with the following settings:

Channel: #general

Take the value of the Webhook URL field and place that url in the webhook_url section of the slack.json file in GoShipIt's root directory.

Use this command to run GoShipIt:

$ ./goshipit {yourdomain.com} {yourport} {use https true/false}

• /goshipit will randomly select any ShipIt squirrel and display it in Slack.

• /goshipit categories will show what the available categories are and how many ShipIt squirrel images are in them.

• /goshipit {categoryname} will randomly select a ShipIt squirrel image from the specified category.
