Fusebot

Hi everyone! 👋 First, special thanks to Hiten Shah @hishah for hunting us! 🙏 Tomasz here, alongside @cmorefusebit, and we are excited to introduce Fusebot: the simplest way for developers to create Slack and Discord slash commands using Node.js and npm. Fusebot lets you realize all your creative ideas and custom automation needs for Slack and Discord without friction. What are some tasks developers have automated with Fusebot? ☑️ Check the status of your systems ☑️ Launch a build or deployment ☑️ Get the latest sales numbers ☑️ Run custom query in your data warehouse ☑️ Get lead status from your CRM ☑️ Report system usage ☑️ Show a meme or a gif ☑️ Message the on-call person Basically, if you can code it in Node.js, Fusebot can run it. 🏃‍♀️ We’ve made Fusebot with developers in mind. In three easy steps, you can: 1. Open a web development environment right from within Slack or Discord. 2. Implement your command with all the flexibility of Node.js and npm. 3. Immediately run it from within Slack or Discord. Fusebot takes care of the hosting, scaling, and securing your slash commands so that you can focus on what you love and do best: coding. All you need to do is bring your imagination. 🔥 I am super curious what you are planning to build, and how you can think of putting Fusebot to work in your Slack or Discord environment. Please share your ideas, feedback, or questions! ✨ Now let’s create a slash command already! 🚀 Cheers, Tomasz

Integrating it to slack was smooth, and using it is intuitive. Already started using it for fun. We'll try to use it for productivity soon 👍

Smooth! This is great for quickly building out commands for internal use within our teams. We're going to try and use it to let our marketing folks get direct campaign analytics within slack so that they don't have to jump back and forth while in a conversation. It's probably not mature enough to be a core service we can rely on 100% of the time + its purely slash commands so seems like notifications/triggers are not possible just yet?

This seems super helpful for being able to script out a lot of my common tasks within Slack. Use a mix of tools to do this today.

Hey makers! If you are looking to get started building your first command and need some coding inspiration, check out the Fusebot GitHub repo for a bunch of examples we created. https://github.com/fusebit/fuseb...

This looks awesome. I'm excited to give it a try.

Loved how quick it was to get started with adding additional functionality to our Discord server. Discord doesn't have nearly the ecosystem for plugins that Slack does and this felt like it could be the missing-link needed to make teams more productive from one place. Just getting started with it, but we used it to provide some basic team management types of features such as assigning github pull requests in a way that more aligned with how we operate than the built in github PR assignments work. Just being able to run "/fusebot assign PR_URL" without figuring out authentication of bots, or finding somewhere to run the service was a big plus in getting this functionality out fast. Looking forward to what the team is able to add in the future!
