Commands

Scrappy provides some helpful commands in Slack. These commands are also documented in our Slack if you send the message /scrappy in any channel.

• /scrappy-togglestreaks: toggles your streak count on/off in your status
• /scrappy-togglestreaks all: opts out of streaks completely
• /scrappy-open: opens your scrapbook (or another user's if you specify a username)
• /scrappy-setcss: adds a custom CSS file to your scrapbook profile. Check out this cool example!
• /scrappy-setdomain: links a custom domain to your scrapbook profile, e.g. https://zachlatta.com
• /scrappy-setusername: change your profile username
• /scrappy-setaudio: links an audio file to your Scrapbook. See an example here!
• /scrappy-webring: adds or removes someone to your webring
• Remove a post: delete the Slack message and Scrappy will automatically update for you
• Edit a post: edit the Slack message and it will automatically update for you
• Post a message to the #scrapbook channel or add an existing Slack message to Scrapbook by reacting to it with the :scrappy: emoji (Note: If it isn't working, make sure Scrappy is added to the channel by mentioning @scrappy)

Contributing

Contributions are encouraged and welcome! There are two GitHub repositories that contain code for Scrapbook: the Scrapbook website and Scrappy (the Slack bot). Each repository has a section on contributing guidelines and how to run each project locally.

Development chatter happens in the #scrapbook-dev channel in the Hack Club Slack.

Running locally

In order to run Scrappy locally, you'll need to join the Hack Club Slack. From there, ask @sampoder to be added to the scrappy (dev) app on Slack.

1. Clone this repository
   • git clone https://github.com/hackclub/scrappy.git && cd scrappy
2. Install ngrok (if you haven't already)
   • Recommended installation is via Homebrew
   • brew install ngrok
3. Install dependencies
   • yarn
4. Create .env file at root of project
   • touch .env
   • Send a message mentioning @creds in Hack Club's Slack asking for the .env file contents
5. Link your .env with your Prisma schema
   • npx prisma generate
6. Start server
   • yarn dev
7. Forward your local server to ngrok
   • ngrok http 3000
   • Your ngrok URL will be printed out after running this command, which you will need for the next step
8. Update the Slack settings
   • Click the toggle to enable events
   • Update the URL request URL to be <your-ngrok-url>/api/slack/message. An example would look like https://ea61-73-68-194-110.ngrok.io/api/slack/message
   • Save changes and reinstall the Slack app
   • This will regenerate Scrappy's oauth tokens, so make sure to update these in the .env file
