Slackyboy is a helpful, programmable chat bot for Slack written in PHP.

Slackyboy is currently under early development. If you're interested in using Slackyboy, please come back soon when Slackyboy is more stable.

Slackyboy uses Slack's new Real Time Messaging API combined with the bot users API to connect directly to Slack to send and receive messages.

By itself, Slackyboy doesn't do much. Plugins give Slackyboy new abilities, and allow you to extend Slackyboy to be able to do nearly anything you can think of.

Below is a list of plugins that currently come built-in with Slackyboy:

• AdminControl: Allows you to control Slackyboy from within Slack
• Config: Allows you to change Slackyboy configuration on the fly by talking to it
• Human: Enables more human-like responses to questions and comments
• RandomGenerator: Generates different types of random data
