Clojurians Log v2

I'm fine with the proposal by @vemv. I didn't know people were asking questions about CIDER on http://ask.clojure.org and I think it makes sense to pipe them here as well.

Thanks @bozhidar - I'll set that up when I get to my desk.

OK, I have enabled RSS feeds again for this Slack. @vemv You can add that RSS feed in the #cider channel by typing /feed (while you are in the channel).

I have added a couple of feeds into #sql but Alex has indicated we don't need feeds into the tools* channels (so this is my request that folks don't go wild adding feeds everywhere!)

Note that we already have GitHub integrate so you can also do /github subscribe <url-to-repo> to get various activity posts into a channel from a given repo.

Thanks! I'm not sure it will work since if type /feed, no popup will be visible (as it is with other slash commands)

It will. I just did it for two feeds in the #sql channel 🙂

> Sorry! Only certain users are allowed to add or edit RSS feeds. Please contact a Team Owner for help.

Oh, interesting...

OK, try again. Seems Slack has multiple places where an app needs to be "approved"...

That was it. Thank you!

Thank you both! TIL about the individual rss feeds. Neat! Would you mind if I try plugging Slack's own rss bot from https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/feed/tag/cider.rss into #cider ? It's worth noting, it's not just one person (e.g. me) that may want to monitor Ask questions. By reflecting them publicly, a variety of contributors can also help. Even end users may be interested in seeing that an issue that may be affecting them has already been asked about.

The RSS integration is disabled, I believe. We clamped down on integrations when we were on the free plan because you are limited in what you can add -- and I suspect we will lose Pro this year (the folks at Slack who were granting free Pro accounts to OSS communities have moved on and the new management is much less inclined to do this). That said, I think we could re-enable the RSS feed integration -- but I'll need to check in with the other admins to see if they have opinions.

The early consensus appears to be in favor of re-enabling the RSS feed integration. I feel there are quite a few tags on http://ask.clojure.org that might be useful to feed into specific channels here on Slack but I think the requests should come from the channel creator/manager to ensure we don't get a flood of requests from folks wanting some arbitrary RSS feed wired into some arbitrary channel. @bozhidar created #cider but I don't know how active he is on Slack? I would be interested in wiring a couple of tags into the #sql channel. @alexmiller are there any tag feeds you would like wired into channels you created or are closely associated with? (I'm thinking of the Clojure tools stuff).

I don't need anything, I am sufficiently watching everything I can watch :)

There are a ton of rss feeds for ask stuff btw

Which you could either monitor, or feed into such a bot

I monitor the Ask questions via Zulip 🙂

Each category has a feed like https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/feed/qa/clojure.rss (for Clojure category)

Each tag also has a feed https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/feed/tag/jira.rss for the jira tag
