pipe-to-slack-bash

It's like https://github.com/clarkie/pipe-to-slack but in Bash because... it was available

Why

I wanted to play around with Slack Incoming Webhooks. 🤷‍♂️

Prerequisites

1. Either HTTPie or CuRL is installed and available in your PATH.

Config

You need to add some sort of app that supports "Incoming Webhooks" to your Slack, and then install this app as a user into your channel. That will give you a URL. Paste that URL into ~/.p2s.sh and now you're ready to spam the channel with whatever logspam you want!

Usage

ls /some/interesting/directory | p2s.sh

tail /var/log/app.logs | p2s.sh

head -c 50 /dev/urandom | base64 | ./p2s.sh

echo 'No code block for me, please!' | ./p2s.sh text
