A friendly slack bot for announcing upcoming Hashrocket observed holidays and time off - communicating those in a timely manner makes us better consultants !
Based on the Hashrocket Employee Handbook.
The best way to verify the integration is to run the app locally, talking to Slack.
You can change the channel in the Announcer in lib/offbot/announcer.rb, but
keep in mind the channel must have the app installed to send messages.
#chicago channel is a good test channel with fewer members to get spammed
than #general.
You'll need the api token from Heroku, it can be looked up via heroku config.
To run the announcer locally:
% SLACK_API_TOKEN=xxx bundle exec rake announce
