You'll know an app is the development version if the\nname has the string `(local)` appended.\n\n```zsh\n# Run app locally\n$ slack run\n\nConnected, awaiting events\n```\n\nTo stop running locally, press `\u003cCTRL\u003e + C` to end the process.\n\n## Creating Triggers\n\n[Triggers](https://api.slack.com/automation/triggers) are what cause workflows\nto run. These triggers can be invoked by a user, or automatically as a response\nto an event within Slack.\n\nWhen you `run` or `deploy` your project for the first time, the CLI will prompt\nyou to create a trigger if one is found in the `triggers/` directory. For any\nsubsequent triggers added to the application, each must be\n[manually added using the `trigger create` command](#manual-trigger-creation).\n\nWhen creating triggers, you must select the workspace and environment that you'd\nlike to create the trigger in. Each workspace can have a local development\nversion (denoted by `(local)`), as well as a deployed version. _Triggers created\nin a local environment will only be available to use when running the\napplication locally._\n\n### Link Triggers\n\nA [link trigger](https://api.slack.com/automation/triggers/link) is a type of\ntrigger that generates a **Shortcut URL** which, when posted in a channel or\nadded as a bookmark, becomes a link. When clicked, the link trigger will run the\nassociated workflow.\n\nLink triggers are _unique to each installed version of your app_. This means\nthat Shortcut URLs will be different across each workspace, as well as between\n[locally run](#running-your-project-locally) and\n[deployed apps](#deploying-your-app).\n\nWith link triggers, after selecting a workspace and environment, the output\nprovided will include a Shortcut URL. Copy and paste this URL into a channel as\na message, or add it as a bookmark in a channel of the workspace you selected.\nInteracting with this link will run the associated workflow.\n\n**Note: triggers won't run the workflow unless the app is either running locally\nor deployed!**\n\n### Manual Trigger Creation\n\nTo manually create a trigger, use the following command:\n\n```zsh\n$ slack trigger create --trigger-def triggers/trigger.ts\n```\n\n## Datastores\n\nFor storing data related to your app, datastores offer secure storage on Slack\ninfrastructure. The use of a datastore requires the\n`datastore:write`/`datastore:read` scopes to be present in your manifest.\n\n## Testing\n\nFor an example of how to test a function, see `functions/mod_test.ts`. Test\nfilenames should be suffixed with `_test`.\n\nRun all tests with `deno test`:\n\n```zsh\n$ deno test\n```\n\n## Deploying Your App\n\nOnce development is complete, deploy the app to Slack infrastructure using\n`slack deploy`:\n\n```zsh\n$ slack deploy\n```\n\nWhen deploying for the first time, you'll be prompted to\n[create a new link trigger](#creating-triggers) for the deployed version of your\napp. When that trigger is invoked, the workflow should run just as it did when\ndeveloping locally (but without requiring your server to be running).\n\n## Viewing Activity Logs\n\nActivity logs of your application can be viewed live and as they occur with the\nfollowing command:\n\n```zsh\n$ slack activity --tail\n```\n\n## Project Structure\n\n### `.slack/`\n\nContains `apps.dev.json` and `apps.json`, which include installation details for\ndevelopment and deployed apps.\n\n### `datastores/`\n\n[Datastores](https://api.slack.com/automation/datastores) securely store data\nfor your application on Slack infrastructure. Required scopes to use datastores\ninclude `datastore:write` and `datastore:read`.\n\n### `functions/`\n\n[Functions](https://api.slack.com/automation/functions) are reusable building\nblocks of automation that accept inputs, perform calculations, and provide\noutputs. Functions can be used independently or as steps in workflows.\n\n### `triggers/`\n\n[Triggers](https://api.slack.com/automation/triggers) determine when workflows\nare run. A trigger file describes the scenario in which a workflow should be\nrun, such as a user pressing a button or when a specific event occurs.\n\n### `workflows/`\n\nA [workflow](https://api.slack.com/automation/workflows) is a set of steps\n(functions) that are executed in order.\n\nWorkflows can be configured to run without user input or they can collect input\nby beginning with a [form](https://api.slack.com/automation/forms) before\ncontinuing to the next step.\n\n### `manifest.ts`\n\nThe [app manifest](https://api.slack.com/automation/manifest) contains the app's\nconfiguration. This file defines attributes like app name and description.\n\n### `slack.json`\n\nUsed by the CLI to interact with the project's SDK dependencies. It contains\nscript hooks that are executed by the CLI and implemented by the SDK.\n\n## Resources\n\nTo learn more about developing automations on Slack, visit the following:\n\n- [Automation Overview](https://api.slack.com/automation)\n- [CLI Quick Reference](https://api.slack.com/automation/cli/quick-reference)\n- [Samples and Templates](https://api.slack.com/automation/samples)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fslack-samples%2Fdeno-request-time-off","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fslack-samples%2Fdeno-request-time-off","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fslack-samples%2Fdeno-request-time-off/lists"}
