Introduction

A year ago I got tired of copy pasting pull request info into Slack, and not being able to see its status in a quick look. So I built something to automate Pull Request sharing from GitHub to Slack.

People loved at work loved the first version, so I decided to create a product around it. That's how prbot was created.

Even though the initial idea was simple, it kept evolving to what it is now:

Today's prbot mission is to enhance and speed up code review process, by automating Pull Request sharing, keep them in sync, and much more.

Features

• Automatic Slack message
• Synced Pull Request Status
• Synced Reviews Status
• Multiple Channel Support
• Customizable Message Format
• Advanced Settings

Configuration

Your config is a yaml file that you can put anywhere.

slack:
  defaultChannelID: "00000000000"

  repositories:
    backend:
      channelID: "00000000000"
    front-end:
      channelID: "00000000000"

  messageFormat:
    showSizeEmoji: true

Next Steps

I'm exited about the upcoming features like reminders, codeowners suppot, Microsoft Teams support, etc. However, they won't matter if you won't use it so I would love to know the features you would like to see in the prbot next releases.

How's your code review workflow? Tell me about it!

Happy coding!
