a Command Builder for your Workspace
Commands Simplified • Clearer Response • Increase Productivity
Start using Cakcuk by adding Cakcuk to your workspace directly. Or you can Provision your own Cakcuk.
To get started deploying Cakcuk by yourself, make sure you have created the slack app first to get the Slack app token. You can go to Slack Apps and create one if you haven't created your slack app. You also need to keep the verification token as well. It works for validation of each request from Slack. Put those both tokens on your Cakcuk env just like in this section.
When you use Slack Event API, you also need to set events those you subscribe to. There are three events that you need to submit.
- app_mentions:read
- chat:write
- files:write
- im:history
- team:read
- users:read
- channels:read
- groups:read
- mpim:read
- channels:manage
- groups:write
- im:write
- mpim:write

Slack RTM APIdoesn't need to expose a public endpoint. Thus it's easier to integrate with your private cluster if you have.Slack Event APIneeds to has a public endpoint and register it to Slack to be challenged. -
Slack RTM APIuses WebSocket, so it's realtime and lower latency.Slack Event APIuses HTTPS webhook, it must have higher latency mostly. -
Slack RTM APIuses higher resource, CPU, memory & bandwidth. WebSocket costs this.Slack Event APIuses HTTPS webhook, it eats lower resources. -
Slack RTM APIneeds to expose many scopes/permissions, It has multiple scopes/permissions aggregated inbotSlack scope. That's why RTM API will consume events that you don't need them as well.Slack Event APIcan just use Slack scopes/permission as needed.

-
PORTBy default, Cakcuk with TLS disabled is using port 80. You can change it as you want by overwriting the PORT env. Keep in mind, it's only for TLS disabled. If you provision your Cakcuk with TLS enabled. It will use port 80 and 443 for sure.
-
LOG_LEVELBy default LOG_LEVEL value is info. It means that logs only print Info, Warn, Error, Fatal, and Panic those are printed on logs. There are 5 types of LOG_LEVEL debug, info, warn, error, fatal, and panic. If you want to print all the logs although is for debugging only. You can overwrite LOG_LEVEL env with debug value.
-
ENCRYPTION_PASSWORDIf you have checked special prefix functionality for
encrypt=and encrypted option in your Custom Commands. ThisENCRYPTION_PASSWORDvalue is the encryption key for the encryption value. For authentication feature, it also uses this encryption key. Just make sure you customize thisENCRYPTION_PASSWORDenv value to keep your sensitive value secured. -
SUPER_USER_MODE_ENABLEDIts default value is true, means enabled by default. It can be disabled by setting the value to be false. If you play the commands on the Playground. You will automatically has access to Superuser. Just play with SU command, examples are provided with an explanation on the info section.
For the detail step by step to create your Slack App with Slack Event API, you can check How to Create Slack Slack App with Slack Event.

Cakcuk with Slack Event API TLS disabled
docker run -p 80:80 \ -e MYSQL_HOST="your-mysql-host" \ -e MYSQL_USERNAME="your-mysql-username" \ -e MYSQL_PASSWORD="your-mysql-password" \ -e MYSQL_DATABASE="your-mysql-db-name" \ -e SLACK_TOKEN="your-slack-app-token" \ -e SLACK_VERIFICATION_TOKEN="your-slack-verification-token" \ -e SLACK_EVENT_ENABLED="true" \ isdzulqor/cakcuk:latestTLS disabled doesn't mean you cannot use HTTPS for your Cakcuk. It gives you an option if you want to deploy it with TLS handled by load balancer or the others, for example, Nginx. So it doesn't need to be handled on the application level.

You need to provide public domains that you need to set for PUBLIC_DOMAINS env. It accepts multiple domains separated by comma. Cakcuk uses Let's Encrypt to handle TLS.

The following steps are the straightforward steps to create Slack App with Slack Event API. You can follow the steps below to create your own Slack App (valid checked on 2023-09-05).
-
Go to https://api.slack.com/apps and click "Create New App" button.
-
Choose From Scratch and fill the App Name and choose your workspace.
-
After the app is created, you will be redirected to the app detail page. Scroll down to get the "Verification Token". Copy the token and save it somewhere.
-
Go to "OAuth & Permissions". Scroll down to "Scopes" and fill out the "Bot Token Scopes" with the following scopes:
- app_mentions:read
- chat:write
- files:write
- im:history
- team:read
- users:read
- channels:read
- groups:read
- mpim:read
- channels:manage
- groups:write
- im:write
- mpim:write
-
Stay on "OAuth & Permissions" page. Scroll up and click "Install to Workspace" button. Then click "Allow" button.
-
The "Bot User OAuth Token" will be generated. Copy the token and save it somewhere.
-
After you get the "Verification Token" and "Bot User OAuth Token" you can provision your own Cakcuk. You can follow the steps in this section.
-
Make sure you have provisioned your Cakcuk public URL. You can use https://ngrok.com/ to get the free public URL just for testing.
-
Go to "Event Subscriptions" menu. Then click "Enable Events" button.
-
Go to "Subscribe to bot events" section and fill the event subscriptions with the following events:
- app_home_opened
- app_mention
- message.im
- member_joined_channel
-
You need to fill out the "Request URL" with your Cakcuk Public URL and "slack/event" as suffix path. For example, https://cakcuk.io/slack/event.
-
After you fill out the "Request URL", you need to click "Save Changes" button. If it's successful, you will see successful notification on the top of the page.

Superusercan Read, Create, Update, Delete, and Execute all commands.Common Useris only able to Read, Create, Update, Delete, and Execute his commands in his scopes. -
Superusercan Read of all the user's access, the scopes and the commands included.Common Useris not allowed. -
Superusercan Show, Set, and Delete Superuser list group.Common Useris only able to Show Superuser list.
Create your own custom command with Cak command then execute it. Please keep in mind, the commands you create on the Playground have the expiration time. It takes 5 minutes to be deleted after the creation time.
Your created Custom Commands also have the implicit options that Cuk command has. Like Query parameters, Headers, etc. You can overwrite or add params as you need. Just try the Custom Command examples! You need to try it in sequence for each example within the section.
Don't forget to explore Cak Command! as well for more functionalities as you need.
Printing result to be file output. It's a single option. Just add --outputFile, -of in your command. Please note it's only working in your workspace.
Filtering result that's containing some keyword. Works like grep command in terminal. --filter, -f is case insensitive. Example usage: --filter=this is keywords. Just play the playground to see the result!
It will print options when you execute the command in your workspace. Just like the Preview tab in the command section of the play editor. It's useful for you to ensure you input the correct value for each option as you want. Something like avoiding typo.
It will print no response from your executed command in your workspace. Just add --noResponse, -nr in your command. It's fit for your use-case which is for post/put something, like triggering CI or something like that you don't need the response.
It will ignore --parseResponse, -pr value. It's useful for debugging. Works with Cuk, and your custom commands.
You can work with Slackbot to make your Cakcuk powerful.
- Creating Slackbot alias to trigger Cakcuk command.
- Set a reminder to execute a certain command at a certain time.
Currently, only basic authentication that's supported on a specific option which is --basicAuth, -ba. But you actually also can implement the other authentication that's able to generate to be header values.
You can explore it easily on API tools like Postman. You can choose what type of auth you use. Then simply get the generated headers. Then you can put those headers values to Cakcuk command request with --header, -h option.
