Component body

This module integrates with Slack, and imports images posted to a specified Slack channel into Drupal as File entities.

A new file type called Slack Image and a new display called Slack Image Display will be added.

Images get uploaded to Drupal during a Drupal cron job or with drush import-slack-images command.

Slack Images will be available every place File Entities were available before.

Check out this great example from Zoomdata.com:

Employees of Zoomdata can upload images to a specific channel in the company's Slack highlighting events, acheivements and general awesomeness. Once approved we display the images using the Views, Masonry Views, Colorbox, and GD infinite scroll plugin modules.

Requirements

  • Slack Account
  • Slack App (See README for instructions on creating a Slack app)
