New Plugin Request: slack-webhook-plugin

[David Pires]

Hi all,

I'd like to host my plugin on jenkins-ci.org.

• url: https://github.com/dpires/jenkins-slack-webhook-plugin
• name: slack-webhook
• github username: dpires
• jenkins-ci.org username: dpires
• description: A Jenkins plugin that exposes an endpoint to be used by a Slack outgoing-webhook for ChatOps interactions (listing projects, building projects, getting build information etc.)

Thanks,

David

Would it make sense to integrate this into the Slack Plugin? I mean, it's in the other direction, but still…

That was my initial thought, but then reading the wiki (about making unique features) I thought it didn't really have anything to do with the Slack plugin, which is really a notifier, this is more of a simplified ChatBot, that is currently only working with Slack (but could work with HipChat and others)

Also, it would make the Slack plugin have 2 token configuration settings, which could be confusing. 

Maybe a generic "webhook" plugin name change would make more sense?

Actually making it a generic webhook plugin wouldn't make sense either, as reading the wiki it seems better to make smaller unique plugins which don't require too much configuration.

This plugin is the opposite of the Slack plugin as it's a outgoing-webhook, rather than an incoming webhook, different API/features available.

+1 for merging and adding a feature flag in the global configuration to enable one or/and the other functionality

+1. IMO we should try and enrich existing plugins particularly when this is not gonna be a feature bloat, and/or when the codebase isn't too big.
It makes it easier to find for users, and maybe less likely to become unmaintained.

Cheers

Okay, i'll merge with the slack-plugin.

Thanks
