fyle-slack-app

  • Download and install Docker desktop for Mac from here.

  • Download and install ngrok for Mac from here

  • Once ngrok is installed, run the below command to start ngrok tunnel

    ngrok http 8000
    
  • This will spin up a ngrok tunnel with a host name that will proxy slack's API calls to our local server.

  • Best to always keep the ngrok tunnel open - can keep a screen session running for this.

Creating new slack app for local development

  • Ask someone from Slack Team to invite you to the demo slack workspace, where the team test their changes.

  • Create a new slack app from here

  • Choose Create from an app manifest and ask someone from Slack Team to share an existing manifest file. After copy-pasting the manifest file json data, -

    • You'll need to replace the existing ngrok urls with the ngrok server url (which you started in your machine) in the manifest of the new app that you created.

    • You'll also need to change the slack app name to "Fyle-Dev-<YOUR_NAME>", just so that you can easily identify the app (assuming multiple devs working on this service).

  • After your slack app has been successfully created, you'll need to add these few creds in your .env file (which you will create here) -

    • Creds under App Credentials present on this slack app's settings page

    • Your fyle test org TPA creds (FYLE_CLIENT_ID, FYLE_CLIENT_SECRET)

  • Now, all that is left for you, is to install your newly created slack app inside demo slack workspace. You can do this by opening this url in your browser.

    https://<YOUR_NGROK_URL>/slack/direct_install
    
  • Just FYI - Each developer will be working on their own separate slack app, and not on a common one.

Local Development

Prerequisites

  • Create an .env file in the root directory with the following entries:

    SECRET_KEY=fakedjangosecretkey
    FYLE_CLIENT_ID=fakefyleclientid
    FYLE_CLIENT_SECRET=fakefyleclientsecret
    FYLE_ACCOUNTS_URL=fakefyleaccounturl
    FYLE_BRANCHIO_BASE_URI=fakefylebranchiobaseuri
    SLACK_CLIENT_ID=fakeslackclientid
    SLACK_CLIENT_SECRET=fakeslackclientsecret
    SLACK_APP_TOKEN=fakeslackapptoken
    SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET=fakeslacksigningsecret
    SLACK_APP_ID=fakeslackappid
    SLACK_SERVICE_BASE_URL=akeslackservicebaseurl
    FYLEHQ_SLACK_URL=fakefylehqurl
    FYLE_SLACK_APP_MIXPANEL_TOKEN=fakemixpaneltoken
    ALLOWED_HOSTS=fakeallowedhosts
    DB_NAME=database
    DB_USER=slack_user
    DB_PASSWORD=slack12345
    DB_HOST=database
    DB_PORT=5432
    

Bringing up via Docker Compose

  • For a fresh setup run to build images for services

    docker-compose build
    
  • Now run to start services

    docker-compose up
    
  • No need to build again to run the services, server will automatically restart if there are changes in codebase.

  • If any changes are made in requirements.txt you'll need to rebuild images

    docker-compose build
    
    docker-compose up
    
  • If you want to build and start service in one shot

    docker-compose up --build
    

Connecting to PostgreSQL DB container

  • Ensure that you have services up and running. Then, run the following command to go into interactive-shell of the database service container.

    docker-compose exec database bash
    
  • And then run the following command to connect to the PostgreSQL DB.

    PGPASSWORD=slack12345 psql -h localhost -U slack_user slack_db
