# Slack Reddit Posts
This repository introduces a trigger that automatically fetches hot posts from a subreddit, generates AI summaries, and sends them to a designated Slack channel.
## Preparation
### Reddit
1. Sign up for a Reddit account. Ensure that your `username` and `password` are registered.
2. Create [a Reddit application](https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps). **Important: Select "script" as the application type from the available options (web app, installed app, script).**
3. Note down the `client id` and `client secret` values.
4. Set up the following secrets in this repository:
- `REDDIT_CLIENT_ID`
- `REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET`
- `REDDIT_USERNAME`
- `REDDIT_PASSWORD`
5. Add the subreddit name to `.github/workflows/slack-reddit-posts.yaml`.
### Google GenAI API Key
1. Sign up for [a Google Cloud account](https://console.cloud.google.com/home/dashboard) if you don't already have one.
2. Enable the GenAI API in the Google Cloud Console.
3. Create a new API key from the credentials section.
4. Set up the following secret in this repository:
- `GENAI_API_KEY`
### Slack
1. Create [a slack application](https://api.slack.com/apps).
2. Install the application to your Slack workspace.
3. In `OAuth & Permissions`, add `chat:write` to the `Bot Token Scopes`.
4. Create a new channel and add the application to it.
5. Set up the following secrets in this repository:
- `SLACK_API_TOKENS`
- `SLACK_CHANNEL_IDS`
