have you seen this tutorial on python+slack?
https://www.fullstackpython.com/blog/build-first-slack-bot-python.html
looks like they don't need flask or a webpage...

Hello,
If this is local, you'll probably be better off bundling a small webserver
like tornado maybe?
Flask does have a server, but it's mostly only for debugging and testing.

Hi All,
I'm developing an alternative slack client that is far more accessible than
the slack client that is released directly by slack.
One issue I'm having and this just because I haven't done much in the past
with Flask, is the instructions say to create a web server using flask for
slack.
Here is the instructions at:
https://slackapi.github.io/python-slackclient/auth.html
Now, here is my webserver.py file :
# controler / webserver.py
import os
from flask import Flask, request
from slackclient import SlackClient
import controler.config as cfg
app_oauth_scopes = [
"client",
"channels:read",
"channels:write",
"channels:history",
"chat:read:user",
"chat:write:user",
"dnd:read",
"dnd:write",
"dnd:write:user",
"emoji:read",
"groups:history",
"groups:read",
"groups:write",
"identity.basic",
"identity.basic:user",
"im:history"<im:history>,
"im:read"<im:read>,
"im:write"<im:write>,
"team:read",
]
client_id = cfg.slack_client_id
client_secret = cfg.slack_client_secret
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/begin_auth", methods=["GET"])
def preinstall():
return '''
<a
href="https://slack.com/oauth/authorize?scope={0}&client_id={1}";<https://slack.com/oauth/authorize?scope=%7b0%7d&client_id=%7b1%7d>>Sign
In to Slack</a>
'''.format(app_oauth_scopes, client_id)
# end function begin_oauth
@app.route("/finish_auth", methods=["GET", "POST"])
def postinstall():
# Retrieve the auth code from the request params
auth_code = request.args['code']
# An empty string is a valid token for this request
sc = SlackClient("")
# Request the auth tokens from Slack
auth_response = sc.api_call(
"oauth.access",
client_id=client_id,
client_secret=client_secret,
code=auth_code
)
return auth_response
can someone please explain how this is to be used? In the past I've seen
that applications launch a web browser, with a sign into slack button, and
then it takes mme to slack. How can I duplicate this process? How is this
webserver used? This is frustrating as my slack client is starting to come
together. I'm testing with a ttest token, and now I want to release it to a
test group so they can try it out.
Thanks for any help.
