Drive Slack slash commands with PHP
Want to run the Slack Slash Commands in a no hassle PHP environment?
Follow Slacks instuctions as to get an App up and running who’ll perform your slash commands.
Deploy the ‘bot’ to, well, any PHP enabled webhost, the version of PHP needed will depend on what functions you decide to use. Go for atleast 5.4+.
sudo apt-get install git wget -ygit clone https://github.com/ThatKalle/slack-slash-command-PHP.gitcp -r slack-slash-command-PHP/. /var/www/public_html
You’ll also have to update the $valid_tokens array in config.php with your own Verification Token provided by Slack when creating your App. link.
You can add multiple keys to authenticate the same bot to multiple Slacks for example.
Create a new Slash Command in Slack and point it to the .php file, for example https://FQDN/template to use template.php.
