Post to Slack from Parse Cloud Code

slack.js

function Slack(hook_url) {
  this.hook_url = hook_url;
}

Slack.prototype.send = function(message) {
  if (!message.text) {
    return;
  }
  if (!message.channel) { message.channel = '#general'; }

  var command = this.hook_url;
  var body = {
    channel:  message.channel,
    text:     message.text,
    username: message.username
  };

  if (message.icon_url) { body.icon_url = message.icon_url; }
  if (message.icon_emoji) { body.icon_emoji = message.icon_emoji; }
  if (message.attachments) { body.attachments = message.attachments; }
  if (message.unfurl_links) { body.unfurl_links = message.unfurl_links; }
  if (message.link_names) { body.link_names = message.link_names; }

  return Parse.Cloud.httpRequest({
    method: 'POST',
    url: command,
    body: JSON.stringify(body)
  });
};

module.exports = Slack;

Usage

  var Slack = require('cloud/slack.js');
  var slack = new Slack('https://hooks.slack.com/services/INCOMING_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL');
  
  return slack.send({text: msg}).then(function(){
    // success
  }, function(error){
    // error
  });

Thanks so much for this :) Works perfectly!!

Awesome. Thank you!

I only need one channel for now but would love to know how to specify a channel and the other options.
