Slack Webhook usage

At first, you have to apply Slack webhook. and copy webhook url

Webhook usage

Code example:

var Slack = require('slack-node');

webhookUri = "__uri___";

slack = new Slack();
slack.setWebhook(webhookUri);

slack.webhook({
  channel: "#general",
  username: "webhookbot",
  text: "This is posted to #general and comes from a bot named webhookbot."
}, function(err, response) {
  console.log(response);
});

Use icon emoji, you can give a Slack defined emoji, or use image from URL.

var Slack = require('slack-node');

webhookUri = "__uri___";

slack = new Slack();
slack.setWebhook(webhookUri);

// slack emoji
slack.webhook({
  channel: "#general",
  username: "webhookbot",
  icon_emoji: ":ghost:",
  text: "test message, test message"
}, function(err, response) {
  console.log(response);
});

// URL image
slack.webhook({
  channel: "#general",
  username: "webhookbot",
  icon_emoji: "http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/rokey/popo-emotions/128/after-boom-icon.png",
  text: "test message, test message"
}, function(err, response) {
  console.log(response);
});

Otherwise, you can check usage from example

Slack API support

The method, please reference Slack API page

var Slack = require('slack-node');
apiToken = "-- api token --";

slack = new Slack(apiToken);

slack.api("users.list", function(err, response) {
