This Slack bot helps people organize various events like padel games.
BotKit - listens to Slack requests and answers them
Sqlite - stores event details
Localtunnel - exposes the server to the internet if you're behind a NAT
Fork and clone the repo
Run npm install to install the dependencies
Download localtunnel npm install -g localtunnel and execute it like this lt --port 8765 --subdomain cwbcn . Be aware that it can be unreliable, needing to be restarted frequently.

Go to the Slack admin panel's App Credentials and use the information to start the application like this : CLIENT_ID=<client id> CLIENT_SECRET=<client secret> VERIFICATION_TOKEN=<verification token> PORT=8765 npm run dev
Authenticate the application with Oauth by going to (http://localhost:8765/login)
Type /padel create 13:00 tomorrow to create a new event
Type /padel next to see the next event
