Logbot is a slackbot to log/stash whatever is on your mind while using slack. It let's you later retrieve this messages, along with the time when you saves them.
One specific use case is to quickly note down activities you do to make it easier to fill in your timesheets later on. This is where the intergration with cabdriver comes in handy.
Logbot adds the /log
command to Slack, you can use it in the following way:
- Save a message:
/log my message
- Retrieve a list of all saved messages:
/log list
- Return the last message and remove it from the list:
/log pop
- Clear the content of the list:
/log clear
By default all messages are saved with the type log
, if you want to use Logbot to save messages for taxi (via cabdriver), you can use the command /taxi
with the same functionality:

/taxi _internal 1 Meeting with George
- Retrieve a list of all taxi entries:
/taxi list
