Slack App for PubSub+ Event Portal

giri

Hello Solace Community,

In an attempt to enhance your EDA experience, we have built integrations to tools and the processes that you and your IT teams use on a daily basis. These include Slack, Confluence, GitHub, IntelliJ, Jenkins, and many more.

As a starter, I recommend reading the blog Supercharge your Software Development Lifecycle with PubSub+ Event Portal.

In this post, I wanted to share information on Slack & Solace Event Portal integration. The Solace PubSub+ Event Portal integration for Slack gives you and your teams full visibility into your Event Portal resources right in Slack channels, where you can access information about your Application Domains, Applications, Events, and Schemas. This integration is an open-source project built and maintained by Solace-Labs.

In the Solace Slack App, a Slack user can interact with Solace Event Portal:

Slash Commands - Interactions with Solace PubSub+ Event Portal exposing resources via slash commands - /solace command

URL Unfurling - Exposing Event Portal resources represented by an Event Portal URL

Interactivity - Contextual interactions on the slash command or URL unfurled output to drill down and access child resources.

To learn more about the Slack App - check out the following resources. Of course, if you have any questions or comments - feel free to reach us in the community.

A few lessons learned building the Slack App - documented them here for reference.

The goal of enhancing your existing SDLC with EDA is coming to fruition with the integration of the Solace Event Portal with the tools like Slack, Confluence, etc. Stay tuned for more updates on this topic.
