## Setup
To enable the [Slack ](https://slack.com/ ) bridge:
1. Follow the
[OAuth credentials ](https://github.com/Sorunome/mx-puppet-slack#option-2-oauth )
instructions to create a new Slack app, setting the redirect URL to
`https://matrix.YOUR_DOMAIN/slack/oauth` .
2. Update your `vars.yml` with the following:
```yaml
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_enabled: true
# Client ID must be quoted so YAML does not parse it as a float.
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_oauth_client_id: "< SLACK_APP_CLIENT_ID > "
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_oauth_client_secret: "< SLACK_APP_CLIENT_SECRET > "
```
3. Run playbooks with `setup-all` and `start` tags:
```
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
```
