- In this tutorial we will build a Slackbot using JavaScript/Node.js that reaches out to 2 public APIs and tells random jokes within Slack. We will use the Slackbots.js library to achieve this.

Thanks Mr Brad. Next week I'll be joining as a UI/UX developer at a startup and the first thing I'll be doing is donating you at patreon. I owe you a lot and you are a savior to most of us budding developers. Thanks a ton. Continue your good work and God bless.
Nice tutorial. Currently your code allows you to trigger the bot with or without "@jokebot", so simply entering "chucknorris" will trigger the bot. As a suggestion, you could do something like this within the handleMessage() function:
if(message.includes(''))
{
var text = message.split(" ").pop();
if(text == 'chucknorris')
{
getAPIData();
}
}
Basically it first checks for the existence of the bot ID and then it simply splits the string to get the text that triggers the bot. This ensures that your api data call is only triggered when using the bot.
A great starter tutorial to get the ball rolling for project.
Awesome video! If you want the bot to post messages with the profile picture you add in the slack-api instead of an emoji, you can add:
as_user: true
inside the 'const: params:'- curly brackets instead of 'icon_emoji'. When 'as_user' is set to 'true', the bot will post as a user instead of as a bot.
Thank you for this video!
This is one of the first tutorials I did that actually worked! I didn't have to modify anything or troubleshoot your code, it just worked. Well done sir and I'll be using this to get started with a custom Jenkins Slack Bot. Thanks!
Learning to work with technology helped me to get a better understanding of how people are working and reacting to each other. I recommend Slack plugins like Moodbit that sends me regular reports on the team’s emotion through emotion-sensing AI technology.
It's really helpful to detect the problem immediately and work on it rather than wait until the survey that comes once a year.
Brad, you should start a weekly podcast. Your content is the best and I love your down-to-earth approach to learning.
Hey brad, saying your videos are good is an understatement. I'm already attached to your addictive videos. You're just too awesome. I don't know if i'm in a position to actually request for videos but i was wondering if you could make something on bootstrap-vue. Regardless you make them or not i still find your contents fascinating. Good Job!!!
Hi Brad, Slack has made some major changes to it's API and App features. Can you create an updated tutorial covering this please?
Hey Traversy can you please do a video on how best we can keep a user activity data ( history log )
i enrolled in your course on udemy Brad all of them :)
I downloaded your css and html5 tutorials bro all i can say is thanks for making life easy ❤.
OMG such an wesome tutorial, you're a great teacher, thanks for sharing! Do you know if it is technically possible to have the bot *respond to the user as a thread* as opposed to inline right below the query? My idea would bring up a nice bit of content and don't want to clutter the main chat...
Thanks alot for this wonderful tutorial, only question is that it is implementable in classical slack app (depreciated now), can you please do another with new slack app
God bless you Brad.
so cool. first time experiencing my slackbot is responding. Thanks Brad for this brilliant tutorial!!
Come up with the more complicated bot, like Dialogflow + slack
This is so cool! I use Slack everyday at my work and I love it.
I'm guessing you could make a bunch of cases and use them in this type of bot and have the bot run many if it got selected @Traversy Media
Wooow, really-really nice 👍🏻 I like your videos!
Clear and concise. Well done!
Thank you for such simple explaination.
The feedback for the jokes was the best :) Nice content!
You are the best teacher! Would love to see you make an NGXS tutorial!
Great tutorial Brad! Can you do your next tutorial on multiple user roles using Passport's local strategy? That would be a really awesome tutorial (since there's nothing about it here on youtube)
Hi Brad. Thanks for great tutorials here and on Udemy. I'm not a slack user but I'd love to see how you build a twitter bot someday in the future. The one that grabs data from some other API and tweet that data. I wonder how CSS-trick twitter bot works when automatically post every new article published on their website.
So, why does the datatype matter in `if(rand === 1)`? If it's string '1' or boolean true, it should evaluate to false? That makes no sense in this context.
Found it super helpful. Thank you!!!
Wondering if you can do another simple video from scratch building slash command bot example for Slack.
''It seems someone stole yor Boston cap, I swear wasn't me'' Thanks Brad :)
You ever get into chatbots? I messed around with Microsoft Bot Framework a while back but didn't get too far in it.
thanks much, very helpful! died laughing at the wooly mammoth joke)
To do this do you have to have the Enterprise plan of Slack?
Another amazing video Brad..Can you tell me what's your code editor theme in VsCode?
Firstly got it on Instagram, then finally here
As always, awesome tutorial ! Thanks Brad !
Finally a bot. Looling for a discord bot too
Already looking into it :)
Nice, but there is a request. Please try to make it in Python. Discord.py as it offers more functionality.
Anyways glad you replied to me.
+1 Support this, looking forward for a discord bot using Discord.py
Traversy Media hey brad I am waiting for your react course on udemy .
Jeez lol
Hi Travis, love to see each of your tutorials. Is it possible to create some tutorials for developing bot in Microsoft Teams?
Keep it up with these Nodejs tutorials! Thanks!
Really Awesome
Please make a video on MEAN stack using latest trends, techniques and technologies of MEAN stack
Please help. I can't add a bot. When I create a workspace and my app and when I click on the Bots field then send me to HomePage. I really don't know why.
Do you have permission to add bot? Maybe you need to request it before you can install a bot.
i finished before 3 months :D
Quite helpful. Especially the token bit. haha For real.
My favorite teacher ! Do something with NativeScript ! :D
when I try to run it it shows me not_allowed_tocken_type do you know how I can fix it?
Did you find a fix? I am having the same issue
@@david43454 Did you resolve this issue, I am facing the same issue
same for me. I tried to debug in several ways, no luck
Hey brad. As usual very informative content. Can you please make a video on chatbot for websites?
Could you please make a series:
Symfony 3 from scratch to deployment. (Or just the deployment part of it, that would really help me)
Thank you Brad. What theme did you use in your VS code?
It is a fun learning experience to follow your tutorials such as this one. It would be great if you could teach us how to host the bot. Many Thanks!
Have you figured it out how to host such bots?
Thank you for this awesome tutorial!!
This is great. Hoping to find one build in Python.
Thank you for this great tutorial, appreciated it a lot! Did you plan on making a Facebook Bot tutorial in a next video?
Very nice video thank you Brad. Does anyone know to host your slackbot on heroku?
You are an awesome teacher. Thanks for the great content!
Awesome man.Huge admirer . Love your videos.Anyway could you make a tutorial on creating a twitter bot using Javascript and other JS frameworks. ? It would be great help if you could do that.
I love the way you explain things! thank you for the video. Can you have multiable bots users for one app? I don't think so.
What're your thoughts on GitHub bring bought by Microsoft?
Hi Brad, can you make a video about chatbot messenger using Nodejs, I am really excited. By the way, your video is very useful
Brad - do you have a video on how to send a message to a slack-channel using a slack-bot and Python ?
Simple ans clear 👍 you are a great man Brad.
This time without a hat buddy.. grt8..
Can you invoke the /poll command using postMessageToChannel?
Great video - more, please!
Really nice tutorial! Thanks!
Really nice thank you! Could you do a video about Lumen - PHP Micro-Framework? :)
is there a way to create a slackbot which controls adobe license so if anyone wants to sign into adobe apps they can sign out a license from slackbot and do it that way?
Can i use this tutorial also to make a TelegramBot in nodeJs? is it the same principles?
I'm a new php developer - should i build bots in PHP or NodeJS, what is better?
thank you for your time reading my msg.
What is your think about selling GitHub?
My favorite youtuber
Hey thanks for the video, Can you please help me resolve the error , as I am getting one while doing the npm start. It is throwing from vow\lib\vow.js:105
throw e;
Error: not_allowed_token_type
This is amazing, thanks a ton! You're awesome
What's the point of the second = in `data.type !== 'message'`? 'message' will never be any other data type besides a string...
lol, no point...habits :)
Good video. Thanks, Brad.
Hello sir,
Thank you for this tutorial.
I have an issue : when i do a handle function with a condition with includes, it just spams the channel like a loop
function handleMessage(text) {
if (text.includes(' php')) {
params = {
q: 'php'
};
bot.postMessageToChannel(
'général',
`you wrote php`
);
}
}
When I deploy it to heroku it doenst, work. Is this implementation really possible to run on heroku?
On their site, they configure it using incoming web hooks
I hosted my bot on glitch i think it's a great place To host IT its Also pretty easy to host IT on glitch
Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 52.222.189.82:443 I am getting this error when i am starting the node app.
hey Brad.im getting error as message.includes is not a function.pls help me
Hi @Traversary Media great video man. Can you let me know how to host it on heroku? I had tried it to host but it did not responded.
hey,
i have taken your mern stack course and there is one small mistake at one part where you ask users to enter skills which is basically an array and you have used a validator to check if it is correct or not but validator checks only the strings and not arrays.Please correct that thing in your course and code.
Florian Suess oh yes I do take part in Q&A of the course and it is the best couress that I have taken on udemy .
Really amazing Brad !
Can you add voice recognition system in which it hears and responds in voice
Yes, you can do it with JavaScript.
does this still work for people? i was able to get it to work. kept saying authorization code error. I made sure it was the authorization one.
will this work the same for slash commands?
This was an awesome tutorial! Thanks a lot :-)
I am getting warn (deprecaterd request@2.88.2) during npm i slackbots and then when try node start it doesnt work. How can i solve it :(
HELP!!!
Did anyone got this error?:
" TypeError: Cannot read property 'includes' of undefined "
At line 37:
function handleMessage(message) {
if (message.includes(' chucknorris')) {
chuckJoke();
} else if (message.includes(' yomama')) {
yoMamaJoke();
} else if (message.includes(' random')) {
randomJoke();
} else if (message.includes(' help')) {
runHelp();
}
}
HELP!

It is called vscode by Microsoft

Traversy Media It was just a surprise, anyway I like your bigB caps, I am a celtic fan so its reasonable :D
I am doing the edX.org PennX webprogrammer course.JS, jQuery, React and Node.js their line where we advance, I am very eager for these languages and frameworks, maybe once in future I will understand prototype function mechanisms too.
Can you take a look on it and tell your magical words about it?:)

You got a like for being a practical programer!!
The steps in this tutorial no longer work due to a change in the slackbot library, follow TechnoTim's video instead.
