Project picture

Hardware

Required components:

• NodeMCU 1.0 ESP-12 ESP8266 development board (or a similar one)
• LEDs
• Resistors

Software

To get your current presence this program use the Slack API's users.getPresence method over a secured connection and drive the LEDs. To do this you will need a User token (starts with xoxp-) from Slack.

Slack API / users.getPresence method: https://api.slack.com/methods/users.getPresence

Slack User token: https://api.slack.com/docs/token-types#user

Configuration

The following setting need to be updated in the Config.h file:

• WiFi (ssid and password)
• User token
• LED pins (maybe)
• Fingerprint (if Slack changes their certificate)
