Global bot #13

Closed otteydw closed 8 years ago

What are the requirements to get this bot to listen on all channels, everywhere? Is is even possible?

So far it seems like it only works on channels my account is registered in, or chat conversations I am a part of.

Is there a way to make it global so it works in all channels, private groups and direct messages?

You'd have to script that, which is possible. The slack API can provide a list of all channels your credentials can see, so wouldn't be too hard to add. I purposely did not, since some orgs would rather explicitly invite bots, since they do read all messages.
