👋 Hi there, this is QueryStar

Python-First Solution to Develop Bots

QueryStar lets you easily set up triggers and actions to automate workflows.

Something like

Saving Slack new messages that must contain 'hello' to a Google sheet

can be easily done:

# bot.py
import querystar as qs

data = qs.triggers.slack.new_message(channel_id='MyChannelID',
                                     trigger_string='hello')

qs.actions.slack.new_message(
    spreadsheet_id='MySheetID',
    worksheet_id='Sheet1',
    data=[[data['user'], data['text']]])

QueryStar can help you:

• automate workflows
• develop Slack bots
• integrate SaaS data to your own apps
• run background jobs
• schedule tasks
• ...

Get Started

Installation

pip install querystar

Build and Run a Bot

• Create a new file app.py and add this code:

  # app.py
  import querystar as qs
  
  message = qs.triggers.slack.new_message(channel_id='MyChannelID')
  print(message)

• Add QueryStar app to your Slack channel, and copy the channel ID (Instruction)

• Replace MyChannelID with the channel id.

• Run the bot:

  $ querystar run app.py
