# Options You can set these options by using: ``` /set plugins.var.python.slack.option_name value ``` You can also see all the options and set them them interactively by running `/fset slack`. Note that the default value will be shown as an empty string in weechat. The actual default values are listed below. Most options require that you reload the script with `/python reload slack` after changing it to take effect. ## Available options: ### auto_open_threads **Default:** `false` **Description:** Automatically open threads when mentioned or inresponse to own messages. ### background_load_all_history **Default:** `false` **Description:** Load history for each channel in the background as soon as it opens, rather than waiting for the user to look at it. ### channel_name_typing_indicator **Default:** `true` **Description:** Change the prefix of a channel from # to > when someone is typing in it. Note that this will (temporarily) affect the sort order if you sort buffers by name rather than by number. ### color_buflist_muted_channels **Default:** `darkgray` **Description:** Color to use for muted channels in the buflist ### color_edited_suffix **Default:** `095` **Description:** Color to use for (edited) suffix on messages that have been edited. ### color_reaction_suffix **Default:** `darkgray` **Description:** Color to use for the [:wave:(@user)] suffix on messages that have reactions attached to them. ### color_thread_suffix **Default:** `lightcyan` **Description:** Color to use for the [thread: XXX] suffix on messages that have threads attached to them. ### colorize_private_chats **Default:** `false` **Description:** Whether to use nick-colors in DM windows. ### debug_level **Default:** `3` **Description:** Show only this level of debug info (or higher) when debug_mode is on. Lower levels -> more messages. ### debug_mode **Default:** `false` **Description:** Open a dedicated buffer for debug messages and start logging to it. How verbose the logging is depends on log_level. ### distracting_channels **Default:** `` **Description:** List of channels to hide. ### external_user_suffix **Default:** `*` **Description:** The suffix appended to nicks to indicate external users. ### files_download_location **Default:** `` **Description:** If set, file attachments will be automatically downloaded to this location. ### group_name_prefix **Default:** `&` **Description:** The prefix of buffer names for groups (private channels). ### map_underline_to **Default:** `_` **Description:** When sending underlined text to slack, use this formatting character for it. The default ("_") sends it as italics. Use "*" to send bold instead. ### muted_channels_activity **Default:** `personal_highlights` **Description:** Control which activity you see from muted channels, either none, personal_highlights, all_highlights or all. none: Don't show any activity. personal_highlights: Only show personal highlights, i.e. not @channel and @here. all_highlights: Show all highlights, but not other messages. all: Show all activity, like other channels. ### never_away **Default:** `false` **Description:** Poke Slack every five minutes so that it never marks you "away". ### notify_usergroup_handle_updated **Default:** `false` **Description:** Control if you want to see notification when a usergroup's handle has changed, either true or false ### record_events **Default:** `false` **Description:** Log all traffic from Slack to disk as JSON. ### render_bold_as **Default:** `bold` **Description:** When receiving bold text from Slack, render it as this in weechat. ### render_italic_as **Default:** `italic` **Description:** When receiving bold text from Slack, render it as this in weechat. If your terminal lacks italic support, consider using "underline" instead. ### send_typing_notice **Default:** `true` **Description:** Alert Slack users when you are typing a message in the input bar (Requires reload) ### server_aliases **Default:** `` **Description:** A comma separated list of `subdomain:alias` pairs. The alias will be used instead of the actual name of the slack (in buffer names, logging, etc). E.g `work:no_fun_allowed` would make your work slack show up as `no_fun_allowed` rather than `work.slack.com`. ### shared_name_prefix **Default:** `%` **Description:** The prefix of buffer names for shared channels. ### short_buffer_names **Default:** `false` **Description:** Use `foo.#channel` rather than `foo.slack.com.#channel` as the internal name for Slack buffers. ### show_buflist_presence **Default:** `true` **Description:** Display a `+` character in the buffer list for present users. ### show_reaction_nicks **Default:** `false` **Description:** Display the name of the reacting user(s) alongside each reactji. ### slack_api_token **Default:** `INSERT VALID KEY HERE!` **Description:** List of Slack API tokens, one per Slack instance you want to connect to.
