## Slack Log Package

### Description

This package provides a simple and efficient way to log messages directly to Slack from your Node.js applications. Utilizing Slack's Incoming Webhooks, it allows for real-time notifications and logging of critical events, errors, or any custom messages you choose to send to your Slack channel.

### Features

- Easy integration with Slack via Incoming Webhooks.
- Supports custom messages with dynamic data.
- Validates Slack webhook URLs before attempting to send messages.
- Asynchronous logging with async/await support.
- Configurable to fit various logging needs.

### Installation

- Install the package using npm:

```
npm install slack-logs
```

- Or using yarn:

```
yarn add slack-logs
```

### Configuration:

Before you start, ensure you have created an Incoming Webhook in Slack and have the webhook URL ready. For more information on setting up Incoming Webhooks in Slack, visit [Slack's API documentation.](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks)

### Usage

Here is a basic example of how to use the Slack Log package to send a message to your Slack channel:

.env 🚨

```
...
# Slack Webhook URL for sending logs and notifications.
# Replace with your actual webhook URL.
SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL="https://hooks.slack.com/services/******/******/********************


# Optional field, defaults to "true".
# Set to "false" to disable Slack logs globally without changing the code.
ENABLE_SLACK_LOGS=true
# Note: No need to define this variable unless you want to disable Slack logs.
# If variable is not defined, it defaults to "true".
...
```

```
import { slack } from "slack-logs";
or
const { slack } = require('slack-logs');

/*Slack Notification with default format*/
slack.log("Data", [{ title: "1yes!" }]);
slack.log("Data", { title: "2yes!" });
slack.log("Data", "Hello world!");

/*Slack Notification with block format*/
const payload = [
{ title: "Title 1", value: "1234" },
{ title: "Title 2", value: 123 },
{ title: "Title 3", value: { id: 12 } },
{ title: "Title 3", value: [{ id: 12 }] },
];
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload);

```

```
/*Slack Notification with colored block format*/

import { LogLevel, slack } from "slack-logs";

const payload = [
{ title: "Title 1", value: "1234" },
{ title: "Title 2", value: 123 },
{ title: "Title 3", value: { id: 12 } },
{ title: "Title 3", value: [{ id: 12 }] },
];
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.DEFAULT);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.ERROR);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.INFO);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.SUCCESS);
// Or
slack.logBlockMessage("Validation Message!", payload, LogLevel.WARN);
