Slack Invite Automation

A tiny web application to invite a user info your slack team.

Inspired by How I hacked Slack into a community platform with Typeform and Socket.io's slack page.

Setting

fill out config.js as your infomation.

• community: your cummunity or team name to display on join page.
• slackUrl : your slack team url (ex: socketio.slack.com)
• slacktoken : access token of slack. You can generate it in https://api.slack.com/web#auth
• channels : channels to join when the user is invited.(Array) You can find id of channels in your slack.(look at sidebar on the left)

channel list's HTML looks like:

```html
<li class="channel_C024R4462 channel ">
  <a class="channel_name" data-channel-id="C024R4462">
    <span class="unread_just_C024R4462 unread_just hidden">0</span>
    <span class="unread_highlight_C024R4462 unread_highlight hidden">0</span>
    <span class="overflow-ellipsis"><span class="prefix">#</span>codeport</span>
  </a>
</li>
```

the value of data-channel-id is channel id.(C024R44 in above example)

Run

Node.js is required.
