irssi-slack-profile

An Irssi plugin that provides WHOIS-style profile information about Slack users and allows you to update your own Slack profile.

Configuration

In order to use this script, a Slack API token must be configured to request user profile information. A token can be obtained from https://api.slack.com/docs/oauth-test-tokens. Add it with:

/set slack_profile_token TOKEN

Usage

To query a user's profile, run the /swhois command with their nick:

/swhois nick
/swhois @nick

The resulting output will appear as:

00:00 -!- Irssi: nibbler
00:00 -!- Irssi:   name  : Lord Nibbler
00:00 -!- Irssi:   email : nibbler@example.com
00:00 -!- Irssi:   phone : 2125553455
00:00 -!- Irssi:   tz    : Eastern Daylight Time
00:00 -!- Irssi: End of SWHOIS

You can update your own profile as well:

/slack_profile_set last_name Farnsworth

If the cached profile information gets out of date, it can be refreshed:

/slack_profile_sync
