Integration between Stackoverflow and Slack for your Slack workspace workspace.

Every 30 minutes, a GitHub Action will run, which pings the StackOverflow API for new questions with your desired tag.

If there are new questions, it posts them to the Slack Channel in which your Slack WebHook points to.

Every even numbered day of the month at 11 AM UTC time, un-answered questions will be re-posted.

1. Create a slack app and generate a webhook.
2. Add the webhook as a secret under the settings of your repo with the name SlackWebHook.
3. In the SlackIntegration.yml file, you will need to change NameOfStackOverflowTag to the name of the Stack Overflow tag you want to get the questions for. This repo does not currently support multiple tags.
4. Repeat step 3 above except with RePostSlackIntegration.yml.
5. You should be all set! Enjoy the integration.

It's also worth noting that you can configure the event that triggers the action to run in both SlackIntegration.yml and RePostSlackIntegration.yml.

This repo is very much still WIP. All feeedback / suggestions / feature requests are welcome! Just open an issue on this repo.
