I see the nf-slack plugin is in the template now. How's it working for everyone? Has anyone got any feature requests they want for it? Or any existing features they want to bump? I wanna give it some love soon.

Maybe link to output files?
(if that's possible to pull)
e.g. it notifies me that it's completed, but I want to check the
results
actually are there if Iexpected it
Might be too nf-core/seqera platform specific though

Maybe link to output files?
with the new output syntax and/or lineage šŸ˜‰
Otherwise the output files are just lobbed into the void šŸ˜†

Hmmm actually I could do an onFilePublish hook and make a list of files šŸ¤”

why do I sometimes see a link to the run, and sometimes not

I see a link at the bottom?
do you have another example where it's missing?

• not sure about the double status emoji (title and status) one is enough. • a "snazzy" app icon, to make it more personalised (but please no slop...)

I don't see the button anymore

Ha, related - @Adam Talbot maybe just have the
View on seqera platform
on 'success' messages too, but can point to the
outputs
tab of the run?

ah so no "View on Seqera Platform" when it succeeds doh that's a bug. it should pop in immediaetly
(while running)
a "snazzy" app icon, to make it more personalised (but please no slop...)
I believe the app icon comes from your Slack bot identity?

I don't have access to the nf-core workspaec, but I think you should be able to change the icon by going to https://api.slack.com/apps/AF7UQ05V5, scrolling to the botton and adding an app icon

here's a NodeRED version Phil set up for testing:
not sure about the double status emoji (title and status) one is enough.
Which one would we like to keep? Status at the bottom makes more sense to me because down = later in time. But having it at the top is more obvious
m
i would just keep the top one
I think only rike has access to the display info (as she was the one installing it)
a
i would just keep the top one
But then there are 3 and it doesn't make a nice square meow cry
I believe any workspace admins can modify the app icon
m
no keep the status, but no emoji

it doesn't make a nice square meow cry
I do love a good square
m
that's the only configuration i can do
m
Why no emoji?
m
it breaks up the rhythm

will slide into yo' DMs...
actually I'll start a new thread
