Thanks for the suggestion! I would love to add those at some point, not sure if they have they same capabilities as Slack, but it's definitely worth researching.

Upvote for + RocketChat

YES! Would love to have open-source alternatives available...

Mattermost is very similar to Slack and is an ideal and needed integration since Slack seems to be such an integral tool with ChiefOnBoarding...

I would love to build this, but so far, there have only been a handful of people showing interest in this. If we come together and create some funding for this, then I am happy to build it for RocketChat or Mattermost or both.

The reason why I choose Slack in the first place, was not because I like it (I don't), but simply because that's where the people/businesses are.

@GDay how much are we taking for funding?

GDay commented 2 years ago

@woakes070048 Just did a bit of research, but it looks like RocketChat is not going to work, because it doesn't support buttons/dialogs yet. The attachments are pretty limited: https://developer.rocket.chat/reference/api/rest-api/endpoints/core-endpoints/chat-endpoints/postmessage#attachments-detail. Dialogs is something that the Slack bot heavily relies on. But I haven't tried RocketChat yet, so feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

As for Mattermost, it looks like they have a pretty good API and docs and looks like pretty much everything is there to make that work. I am willing to build that for 3k euros (excl vat if applicable).
