🤖 This Transformer between differend data model channels

✅ Developing:

• Slack
• Microsoft Teams
• Default (schema for content builder)

👉 Future channels: ...

How to use

npm i

Sample of code in ./user-test.js If you use ./user-test.js than just run:

npm run dev

Or, create local file and require from ./index.js next functions

import {
  transformSlackToMicrosoftTeams,
  transformMicrosoftTeamsToSlack
} from './index';

After that import json data. Fot example, slack model

const slackToMsTeamsData = require('./slack->msTeams.json');

And transform Slack model to Microsoft team:

const microsoftTeamsModel = transformSlackToMicrosoftTeams({ data: slackToMsTeamsData });
console.log(JSON.stringify(microsoftTeamsModel))

How to test

We use unit testing based on cases. Create new case, just run script, before run command look up in derictory ./test/cases and enter NUMBER_OF_CASE next after existing (change NUMBER_OF_CASE to Number of case)

sh scripts/createCase.sh NUMBER_OF_CASE

Than open ./test/cases/NUMBER_OF_CASE and add original data model to from.json file open ./test/cases/NUMBER_OF_CASE and add expected data model to to.json file

npm run test

How it works

Sample: Microsoft Teams and Slack

• Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards data model 👉 transform to default data model 👉 transform from default data model to Slack Block kit data model
• Slack Block kit data model 👉 transform to default data model 👉 transform from default data model to Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards data model
