Documentation

Install

Note: this crate relies on hyper for handling http. You will want to include the following in your Cargo.toml file.

toml [dependencies] commodore = "0.3" hyper = "0.10"

usage

```rust extern crate commodore; extern crate hyper;

use commodore::{Captures, Command, Mux, Responder, Response}; use hyper::Server; use std::thread; use std::time::Duration;

pub fn main() { let mut mux = Mux::new(); mux.command("/commodore", "secrettoken", |c: &Command, : &Option, responder: Box| -> Option { println!("handler recv cmd {:#?}", c); thread::spawn(move || { // simulate doing something important thread::sleep(Duration::fromsecs(3)); responder.respond(Response::ephemeral("some time later")); }); Some(Response::ephemeral("got it")) }); let svc = Server::http("0.0.0.0:4567") .unwrap() .handle(mux) .unwrap(); println!("listening on {}", svc.socket); } ```

responding

commodore supports a typed representation of slacks response structure. To make creating instances of these convenient, builder instances are provided

```rust extern crate commodore;

use commodore::{Attachment, Field, Response};

fn main() { let response = Response::builder() .text("hallo") .inchannel() .attach( Attachment::builder() .text("attached") .color("red") .field( Field { title: "foo".toowned(), value: "value".to_owned(), short: false } ) .build() ).build(); println!("{:#?}", response); } ```
