Send personal review request messages via Slackbot channel (sample Gist for Zap integration)

reviewBot.js

// Zap Settings
// 1 use GitHub webhooks to send review request notifications to Zapier
// 2 apply text filter: action must exactly match "review_requested"
// 3 run some JavaScript (i.e. this script)
// 4 send a message to a channel (not a direct message), as a bot
// 5 use a custom value for the channel ID which takes the output channelId of this script

const reviewerName = inputData.reviewer.toLowerCase()
const requesterName = inputData.requester.toLowerCase()

// object of arrays (slack display names and IDs) with GitHub profile name used as array identifier
let slackIds = {
  freddy: ['Fred', 'U1A2B3C4'],
  bobfish: ['Bobby Fisher', 'U1A2B3C5'],
  wakingjeff: ['Jeff', 'U1A2B3C6'],
  marymagazine: ['Mary M.', 'U1A2B3C7']
}

// for hyphenated or special char GitHub profile names use square bracket object syntax
slackIds['thomas-jones'] = ['thomas.jones', 'U1A2B3C8']

// the channel and requester ID are the same - this is so the message in Slack appears in the Slack user's Slackbot channel
output = {
  channelId: slackIds[reviewerName][1],
  requesterId: slackIds[requesterName][1],
  reviewerId: slackIds[reviewerName][1],
  requesterName: slackIds[requesterName][0],
  reviewerName: slackIds[reviewerName][0]
}

• Remove superfluous workaround that used shared channel id
• Remove unneeded code
