In hrbrmstr/slackr: Send Messages, Images, R Objects and Files to 'Slack' Channels/Users

slackr 3.3.1

• Fixes a bug in slackr_history where the function fails to infer posted_from_time if not provided
• Adds default message_count = 100 to slackr_history
• Improves test coverage

slackr 3.3.0

User-facing changes:

• ggslackr now relies on dots (...) to pass arguments through to ggsave
• ggplot2 is now in suggests, so the user doesn't need it installed to use slackr. ggslackr will prompt to install if it's not already.
• Fixes a "bug" with pagination in slackr_history causing an almost infinite loop
• Fixes a bug in slackr_save where initial_comment would do nothing
• Improves documentation of slackr_history to be more helpful in pointing the user to the Slack API docs

Backend changes:

• Gets rid of default args in some un-exported functions to make tracking down bugs easier
• Adds significant test coverage

slackr 3.2.2

• Fixes a bug where specifying specifying duration had no effect in slackr_history() if posted_from_time was not specified also. linked issue

slackr 3.2.1

• Fixes a bug where specifying a thread_ts or reply_broadcast in slackr did nothing

slackr 3.2.0

• slackr and slackr_bot no longer rely on reprex, as prex_r would fail when an eval environment needed to be specified, but couldn't.

slackr 3.1.1

• slackr_ims bug fix.
• Using usethis::use_pipe() to import {magrittr}'s pipe.

slackr 3.1.0

• Allows ggslackr to post multiple file types
• Fixes a bug in slackr and slackr_bot that led to garbled output

slackr 3.0.1

Fixes to a couple of bugs Updated error handling for edge cases when you supply a username with a user token. Removes references to purrr, since it's GPL. * Updates the vignettes

slackr 3.0.0

Lots of breaking changes in this release: bot_user_oauth_token has been removed entirely in favor of token slackr_history now has message_count as it's first argument Adding the capability to pass the thread_ts parameter to all slackr_* functions (i.e. allowing you to reply to a message in a thread) Adding reply_broadcast capability in slackr and slackr_msg Adding title and initial_comment parameters for all functions relying on the files.upload endpoint (basically everything except for slackr, slackr_bot, slackr_msg, slackr_history, and slackr_delete) slackr and slackr_bot now use reprex::prex() in the background, which means that they no longer throw errors the same way as they did before. slackr will try to be helpful in telling you what went wrong if your prex output contains an error (instead of posting), but it isn't guaranteed to work all of the time. You can prevent this behavior by setting the SLACKR_ERRORS environment variable to "IGNORE".
