# slack-status-cli

Set your Slack status via the command line

## Example usage

Set auth token (it will store it in `~/.config/slack-status-cli` or your `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` dir

    slack-status -auth-token <your auth token>

Set status without emoji

    slack-status Walking the dog

Set status with emoji

    slack-status :walking-the-dog: Walking the dog
    slack-status --emoji :walking-the-dog: Walking the dog

Set status with duration (eg. `10m`, `2h`, `7d12h`)

    slack-status 10m :walking-the-dog: Walking the dog
    slack-status :walking-the-dog: Walking the dog for 10m
    slack-status --duration 10m --emoji :walking-the-dog: Walking the dog

Set status with duration and snooze notifications

    slack-status --snooze --duration 12h --emoji :bed: Good night
    slack-status --snooze :bed: Good night for 12h

Set a status that contains a duration

    # Set status to "On a break" for 5 minutes
    slack-status :sleeping: On a break for 5m
    # Set status to "On a break for 5m"  for 5 minutes
    slack-status --duration 5m :sleeping: On a break for 5m
    # Set status to "On a break for 5m"  with no duration
    slack-status :sleeping: "On a break for 5m"

Clear existing status and snooze durations

    slack-status

Snooze notifications without updating your status

    slack-status --duration 15m --snooze

## Future

I plan to do a bit of work to bundle this for easier distribution and maybe support multiple workspaces.
