NextBus integration for Slack
This is a simple Python script that integrates NextBus time listings into Slack. Users can register a list of routes they are interested in and query the bus predictions API with one command.
Setup
Install from requirements.txt with pip, then run flash main.py --port 8080. Then set up an HTTPS reverse proxy (between port 443 and port 8080), since Slack will only talk to servers with a valid SSL certificate.
Finally, create a new Slack App using the Slack website and point it at your server. You'll need to set up a slash command pointed to / and enable "interactive components" and point it at /action.
TODO
- Persist saved route data to disk somehow
- Show colors for routes (already supplied by the nextbus API)
- Support adding multiple routes under one name (i.e. student services + Beyer hall)
