# Weechat

Arun has packaged weechat for slack and matrix. Current install using a guix environment:

```
env GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=~/guix-bioinformatics/ ~/opt/guix-latest/bin/guix environment --ad-hoc coreutils weechat weechat-matrix weechat-wee-slack nss-certs openssl python
echo $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
/gnu/store/i4a3ynfjvq8r8cch14gkn2fwfs77wagj-profile/
weechat
/python load /gnu/store/i4a3ynfjvq8r8cch14gkn2fwfs77wagj-profile/share/weechat/python/wee_slack.py
/slack register
```

So, capture the shell GUIX_ENVIRONMENT and use that to launch the wee-slack plugin. Next register a token through te Slack web interface.

If you go through the motions you get a token and

```
/slack register 2654233192084.2682932906197.fd6d6e55c0038f-etc-052b4fa578ec497710b4b8770f1-etc
```
