Node.js library for posting App Store and Google Play app reviews to Slack.

var reviews = require('reviews-to-slack')
reviews.start({
  slackHook: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/token',
  appId: '123456789'
})

npm install reviews-to-slack

Only provide mandatory fields to send reviews for an app to the default channel for the webhook.

var reviews = require('reviews-to-slack')
reviews.start({
  slackHook: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/token',
  appId: '123456789'
})

Example that sends reviews for different apps to different channels. Can be extended with any combination of the options (see below).

var reviews = require('reviews-to-slack')
var apps = [
  {
    appId: '123456789',
    channel: '#channel'
  },
  {
    appId: 'com.my.app',
    channel: '@user'
  }
]
for (var i = 0; i < apps.length; i++) {
  var app = apps[i]
  reviews.start({
    slackHook: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/token',
    appId: app.appId,
    channel: app.channel
  })
}

• slackHook: Mandatory, URL to an incoming Slack webhook.
• appId: Mandatory, ID of an app in App Store or Google Play, e.g. 123456789 or com.my.app.
• region: Two-letter country code for App Store (e.g. us), or two-letter language code for Google Play (e.g. en).
• interval: How often the feed should be queried, in seconds. Default: 300
• debug: Set to true to log debug information and send welcome message to Slack. Default: false
• channel: Which channel to post to, set to override channel set in Slack.
• store: To explicitly set the store, app-store or google-play. In most cases desired store can be derived from the appId so setting this is usually not required.
• botUsername: Set to override the default bot username set in Slack.
• botIcon: Set to override the default bot icon set in Slack.
• appName: Set to override the app name fetched from the reviews provider.
• appIcon: Set to override the app icon fetched from the reviews provider.

Apple is caching their reviews feed quite heavily; you can check if there's actually a new review available by going to https://itunes.apple.com/{region}/rss/customerreviews/id={appId}/sortBy=mostRecent/xml. It may take several hours between updates to the feed. If you see a new review in the feed and it's not delivered to Slack in a timely manner, please file an issue.
