## What this is?

This is a general purpose utility library for using Slack's [Block kit UI](https://api.slack.com/reference/block-kit/blocks), with Go structs corresponding to the blocks used to create UI elements. Also included is middleware for validing Slack requests using HMAC-256 and the Slack secret signing key.

## What this is not?

A Slack API wrapper. There's plenty of those out there.

## Installation

```bash

go get -u github.com/chiefy/go-slack-utils

```

## Usage

### Middleware

```go

func main() {

     

    r := mux.NewRouter()

    r.HandleFunc("/command", MySlashCommandHandler).Methods(http.MethodPost)

    r.Use(middleware.ValidateTimestamp)

    // It's up to you on how you configure injection of the slack signing secret

    signingSecret := os.Getenv("SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET")

    // Generate the validation middleware by injecting the secret

    validateReq := middleware.ValidateSlackRequest(signingSecret)

    r.Use(validateReq)

    srv := &http.Server{

        Handler:      r,

        Addr:         "127.0.0.1:" + os.Getenv("PORT"),

        WriteTimeout: 15 * time.Second,

        ReadTimeout:  15 * time.Second,

    }

    log.Fatal(srv.ListenAndServe())

}

```
