The purpose of this repository is to provide the minimal code necessary to reproduce a bug where a bot built with Slack-Ruby-Bot where the bot responds more than once to text commands.
-
Create a new Slack app with a bot user. Install the app to your Slack workspace.
-
Run the app passing the oauth token of the bot:
git clone git@github.com:jillguyonnet/slack_ruby_bot_minimal.git
cd slack_ruby_bot_minimal
bundle install
bundle exec rake db:setup
SLACK_API_TOKEN=<both_oauth_token> foreman start
- In Slack, check that the app is running as expected by issuing a few commands:
hi: built in withslack-ruby-botshow: print a list of itemsadd: add an item to the listclear: clear the list
That should work normally, i.e. only one response per issued command.
-
Let the app running for ~1 hour without any interaction.
-
Test the various commands again. More often than not, an issue will appear where the bot responds twice to issued commands.
