Admin chat feature
Hello,
I'm not sure if this is generally wanted, but I would love to use your plugin as kind of an admin chat:
In the configuration I would specify another Slack channel which is used as "admin chat" and ingame there would be a new command (/admin <msg> or whatever) to send messages into this channel.
And all messages sent from that given channel out of Slack show up for the people with the permission slack.admin.
Let me know what do you think about this.
I think this is outside the scope of this plugin and would be more suited for another plugin to hook into this one's API.
@mastercoms Yeah, I already thought so. Unfortunately my development skills are not that great (sys admin in full time) so I can't do that. :/
Perhaps someone wants this as badly as I do and is indeed able to write an own plugin for this.
Thanks for your quick response, though!
I'll write a plugin for you. No one will use my API except for me anyway :)
@mastercoms Woah! That would be really awesome. Let me know if you need any more information. I do my best to help you out during the development of the plugin! :astonished:
Until 1.5.x is released and stable, I won't be able to work on the admin chat plugin. So you won't get it right away, sorry if that is an inconvenience to you.
Any ideas for a cool name for the plugin, though?
@mastercoms No worries! I'm already happy because of your offer :)
Regarding the name: I'm not quite sure, perhaps something simple like "SlackAdminChat"?
Your idea gave me a new idea. SlackMC channels. So you can have multiple webhook URLs and then a plugin using the API can specify a certain channel. The config will be kind of like permission groups.
