Deprecated?

[pati-ni]

Hi @yuya373, I was wondering if this package is deprecated? To my understanding xoxc are deprecated and as of now emacs slack hangs.

Is there an alternative way to access the API and use slack through emacs?

See https://github.com/yuya373/emacs-slack/issues/585#issuecomment-1985735967 – that fork works fine.

As discussed in https://github.com/yuya373/emacs-slack/issues/566 , use e.g.

(slack-register-team
       :name "Dagon"
       :default nil
       :cookie (auth-source-pick-first-password
               :host '("slack-dagon")
               :user "cookie" :type 'netrc :max 1)
       :token (auth-source-pick-first-password
               :host '("slack-dagon")
               :user "token" :type 'netrc :max 1)
       :full-and-display-names nil ; protect the innocent
       :animate-image t  ; ward off ghost gifs
       :subscribed-channels '(thalarion sarnath ib))

~/.authinfo.gpg:

machine slack-dagon user token password "xoxc-yarlathotepfvulgtlaglnvulgtmooboshu"
machine slack-dagon user cookie password "xoxd-naazathothazathothorreyliheehlirgh; d-s=5555555555"

@unhammer Thanks, any idea how to retrieve these tokens using the slack API or some active slack session?

just a note: I joined as a new maintainer of this repository. I am just waiting a day or so for a confirmation I can pull a bunch of commits from another fork and most of the PRs and a good number of issues will be solved.
