Installation

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("yonicd/slackblocks")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(slackblocks)

block_text('my text')

image_element('url_to_image')

(b <- section_block(
  text = block_text(
    text = 'A message *with some bold text* and _some italicized text_.'),
  fields = list(
    block_text('*Priority*'),
    block_text('*Type*'),
    block_text('High'),
    block_text(':heavy_check_mark:')
    )
  ))

Posting Blocks to Slack

post_block(b, channel = 'CHANNELID')

knitr::include_graphics('man/figures/sections.png')
