INTRODUCTION
------------

Social Auth Slack Module is a Slack authentication integration for Drupal. It is
based on the Social Auth and Social API projects

REQUIREMENTS
------------

This module requires the following modules:

 * Social Auth (https://drupal.org/project/social_auth)
 * Social API (https://drupal.org/project/social_api)

INSTALLATION
------------

 * Run composer to install dependencies:
   composer require "drupal/social_auth_slack:~2.0"

 * Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module.
   See https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-8
   for further information.

CONFIGURATION
-------------

 * Add your Slack project OAuth information in
   Configuration » User Authentication » Slack.

 * Place a Social Auth Slack block in Structure » Block Layout.

 * If you already have a Social Auth Login block in the site, rebuild the
   cache.


HOW IT WORKS
------------

User can click on the Slack logo on the Social Auth Login block.
You can also add a button or link anywhere on the site that points
to /user/login/slack, so theming and customizing the button or link
is very flexible.

When the user opens the /user/login/slack link, it automatically takes
user to Slack for authentication. Slack then returns the user to
Drupal site. If we have an existing Drupal user with the same email address
provided by Slack, that user is logged in. Otherwise, a new Drupal user is
created.
