Oauth local server and tokens #64

Open courtenay opened 6 years ago

courtenay commented 6 years ago

Because legacy tokens are (probably) a bad idea! So here are instructions for making your own slack app and handing out your own oauth tokens (so you control them) We then run a web server on localhost that you can shut down after you have the token. (You could also run this on a server somewhere and authenticate people in your workspace).

also makes the tokens stored in a config file instead of variables. ymmv.
