Using slack ruby client commands

[maxbrodi]

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the amazing gem.
Unfortunately I can't use slack ruby client commands with it such as:

• client.channels_list.channels
  or
• client.channels_info(channel: '#general')

I get a "undefined method `channels_info' for #SlackRubyBot::Client:0x007fb2e1624030" error each time. Am I doing something wrong here?

Thank you

What I'm trying to do is to send private messages to users instead of posting in a channel, I guess that using these kind of functions to get the users' ID is the best way.

You want the Web client that was used to obtain the RealTime connection in the first place, try this:

client.web_client.channels_list

Maybe the doc could use some updating, please feel free to PR.

Btw, this is documented in the RealTime client itself, but that's not part of this gem - https://github.com/dblock/slack-ruby-client#combining-realtime-and-web-clients.
