Slack App

Cloud Functions

There are two cloud functions. HTTP and PubSub. The HTTP function is used to handle the slack events and publish pertinent events to the pubsub topic. The PubSub function is used to handle the pertinent slack events by passing the message text to OpenAI as a prompt, and then posting the completion to the Slack channel. Done this way in-case OpenAI does not respond before the Slack event request times out.

Development dev_http main.go

The main.go in the dev directory is used to run the slack event receiver locally. When deployed to cloud function the Handler method is the entry point.
