# Motion Arrivals

iBeacons, RubyMotion, SlackHQ. Oh my!

![friends](http://media.giphy.com/media/SKhNHgpJzthII/giphy.gif)

A simple example app used in my iBeacon talk at [#sydinmotion](http://sydinmotion.com). No longer will your colleagues be wondering when you arrive in the office!

## Usage

There is a more in-depth guide [here](https://github.com/willrax/motion-arrivals/wiki/Setup-and-Usage)

Just fill in your slackbot remote control token and preferred channel in `app_delegate.rb`.

```ruby
class AppDelegate
def application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions)
App::Persistence[:slack_token] = "TOKEN"
App::Persistence[:channel] = "CHANNEL"

# ...
end
end
```

You'll want to have some sort of iBeacon running near your desk / office. I would recommend this Mac OSX app [https://github.com/lgaches/BeaconEmitter](https://github.com/lgaches/BeaconEmitter).
