Alfred workflow to interact, and perform various functions with the service [Slack](http://slack.com/).

## Getting started

1. Install slackfred by visiting the download page in Github or via the [Packal page](http://www.packal.org/workflow/slackfred)

2. Open alfred and type `slt`, then hold `cmd` (apple key) and press `enter`. This will open up the Slack API page. Then look for your team (make sure you're logged in) near the bottom and copy your token.

3. Open alfred and type `slt`, then paste your token and press `enter`.

4. Try one of the commands below!

## Currently Available Functionality

* `slt`: Set your API Token

  * Open alfred and type `slt`, then paste your token. If you don't have a token, then hold `cmd` to open the API page to get one (look for your team near the bottom of the page).

* `slf`: Search files

  * Open alfred and type `slf` to search files. Selecting a file opens it in your browser

* `slk`: Search users and rooms

  * Open alfred and type `slk` to search user and room names. Hitting enter triggers an Applescript to interact with the **desktop** application and passes the selected name. Similar to cmd+k

* `slp`: Set your presence

  * Open alfred and type `slp active` or `slp away`

* `slc`: View, leave and join channels

  * Open alfred and type `slc` to display a searchable list of channels. Selecting a channel with `alt` leaves and `ctrl` lets you join.

* `slclear`: Clear unread messages

## To-do

* Search direct messages

* Create a smoother API key/token process
