Vanilla Bean Slack Hooker

Description

*Automated notifications from your WordPress * to your Slack / Mattermost application channels and webhooks.

There is no limit to the ways you may integrate this plugin.

It supports all other Vanilla Bean plugins and is available for under-the-bonnet
use as well as shortcode access.

Some shortcode examples:

[slackhooker text="Here is a message from my wordpress"]

or

[slackhooker text="Here is a message" channel="general" username="My WordPress"]

or

[slackhooker text="Here is a message" channel="https://myorg.slack.com/services/xxoxlsodsfsfsdfds#channelname" username="My WordPress"]

Messages are queued last in the PHP process to insure your other page processing is not interrupted, but you can override:

[slackhooker text="Here is a message from my wordpress." sendnow="true"]

Multiple or custom Webhooks supported

[slackhooker text="Here is a message to multiple webhooks" alsoto="https://hooks.slack.com/services/T03TDTbUF/BBG9SQV6X/abcdefghij,https://hooks.slack.com/services/T03TDTbUF/BBG9SQV6X/abcxxxxxxx"]

Programmatic Examples

if(function_exists('\VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slackhooker')){
    \VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slackhooker('Here is my notification');
 }

if(function_exists('\VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slackhooker')){
    \VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slackhooker('Here is my notification','mychannel','Username',':specific_icon:');
 }

if(function_exists('\VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slackhooker')){
    \VanillaBeans\SlackHooker\vbean_slacknotify(array('text'=>'Here is my notification','icon'=>':open_mouth:'));
 }

There are defaults for all except the message. You can specify:
`* text – required. This is your message
* endpoints – override defaults with a comma separated list of endpooints with optional channel and alert eg: endpoints=’https://endpoint.com#channel#here”
* channel – defaults to ‘general’ or your admin default specified channel – depracated
* username – the identity you would like displayed as the sender in the channel
* icon – any of the available emoji icons in the slack system
* sendnow – true or false. Defaults to false. True means that the message would be executed at the time it is called rather than at the end of page load.
