Slack Integration

Postby snohio » Mon Dec 19, 2016 8:30 pm

I'm curious if there is any interest in Slack integration? I have a Slack Channel that I use for my friends that share in my Subsonic instance. I am currently working on a bot that will let anyone restart the service if it is hung or whatnot.

I know that it probably wouldn't be that difficult since there is already outbound API to Last.FM, it can't be much more difficult to put together.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
Mike

One could create a guest/bot account on your server that has no access to folders nor any other priv feature. It would still be able to send/read chat messages and make the getNowPlaying call and echo those results into Slack (or relay Slack lines back into Subsonic's chat, though if going 2-way you'll need to make sure there's no infinite loop ;-) ).

I just tested that. Yes, a bot account with no privs and no folders can still get the Now Playing and Chat contents and make Chat posts.
