Upload file to slack

[Elfilali-Taoufiq]

I saw the issue about uploading file to slack

public void postFileToSlack(Event event, File file) throws IOException {
okhttp3.Response response = new Meteoroid.Builder()
.token("YOUR-TOKEN")
.channels(event.getChannelId())
.uploadFile(file)
.build()
.post();
response.close();
}

but i can't get it, where can i add the function in JBot code, help me please

Maybe you can try this piece of code

    /**
     * Invoked when the bot receives a direct mention (@botname: message)
     * or a direct message. NOTE: These two event types are added by jbot
     * to make your task easier, Slack doesn't have any direct way to
     * determine these type of events.
     *
     * @param session
     * @param event
     */
    @Controller(events = {EventType.DIRECT_MENTION, EventType.DIRECT_MESSAGE})
    public void onReceiveDM(WebSocketSession session, Event event) {
        boolean flag = true;
        if(event.getText().contains("paper")){
            flag = false;
            try{postFileToSlack(session, event);}
            catch(Exception e){;}
        }
        if(flag){
            reply(session, event, "Hi, I am " + slackService.getCurrentUser().getName());
        }
    }

    public void postFileToSlack(WebSocketSession session, Event event) throws IOException {
        File file = new File("demo.pdf");
        okhttp3.Response response = new Meteoroid.Builder()
                .token(slackToken)
                .channels(event.getChannelId())
                .uploadFile(file)
                .build()
                .post();
        reply(session, event, "file received!");
        response.close();
    }

in SlackBot.java

Here you need to install the okhttp3 and Meteoroid,
(For Convenience), i just download the Meteoroid.java to the same directory of SlackBot.java

You can add more check or operations to send different files.

Here is the effect in my bot
