Batch upload pidgin emote packs to slack

README.md

Pidgin emote pack uploader for Slack

Downloaded pidgin icon packs can be uploaded (one at a time) to Slack by posting the form. Note that this does not (yet) handle name conflicts with existing emotes. Failures to upload will be printed to the console.

Usage

install the requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Extract your icon pack into the working directory, under a new folder called "emote_files" Set the following environment variables:

SLACK_TEAM

SLACK_COOKIE

Then execute:

python pidgin_emotes_to_slack.py

pidgin_emotes_to_slack.py

import os
import requests

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

team_name = os.getenv('SLACK_TEAM')
cookie = os.getenv('SLACK_COOKIE')

url = "https://{}.slack.com/customize/emoji".format(team_name)

emote_dir = './emote_files/'
emotes_to_upload = {}
with open(os.path.join(emote_dir, 'theme'), 'r') as f:
    header_read = False
    for line in f:
        if not header_read and '[' in line:
            header_read = True
            continue
        elif header_read:
            emote_line = line.replace('!', '').strip().split('\t')
            if emote_line[1].startswith(':') and emote_line[1].endswith(':'):
                emotes_to_upload[emote_line[1].replace(':', '')] = os.path.join(emote_dir, emote_line[0])
            else:
                emote_name = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(emote_line[0].replace('emot-', '')))[0]
                emotes_to_upload[emote_name] = os.path.join(emote_dir, emote_line[0])


for emoji_name, filename in emotes_to_upload.items():
    print("Processing {}.".format(filename))
    headers = {
        'Cookie': cookie,
    }
    # Fetch the form first, to generate a crumb.
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
    r.raise_for_status()
    soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text)
    crumb = soup.find("input", attrs={"name": "crumb"})["value"]

    data = {
        'add': 1,
        'crumb': crumb,
        'name': emoji_name,
        'mode': 'data',
    }
    try:
        files = {'img': open(filename, 'rb')}
        r = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=data, files=files, allow_redirects=False)
        r.raise_for_status()
        print("{} complete.".format(filename))
    except Exception as e:
        print("{} failed. Exception: {}".format(filename, e))
