Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1344:
-----------------------------------------
[~schuchm]: You have two models to choose from. The first model is the
simplest: your connector simply trusts all certificates from the server you're
talking with. See the wiki connector for that one. The second model allows
you to populate a custom keystore so that you have a robustly secured https
connection available. This is usually unnecessary but if you wanted to go to
that extent you could look at the SharePoint connector.
In both cases you will want to be certain you aren't just using the default
secure socket setup, which uses the global keystore for SSL validation. That
leads to deployment issues.
Thanks again!

> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.5
> Reporter: Markus Schuch
> Assignee: Karl Wright
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: ManifoldCF 2.6
>
>
> Since CONNECTORS-1119 ManifoldCF has the ability to send notifications on
> certain job statuses. Notification endpoints are realized by
> {{INotificationConnector}} implementors.
> It would be awesome to have a notification connector for Slack channel.
> Slack has a HTTP API (https://api.slack.com/web) and there are a lot of java
> examples showing how to pull this off: https://api.slack.com/community#java
> The simplest way for an integration are [Slack incoming
> webhooks|https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks]
> Sample Request
> {code}
> POST
> https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
> Content-type: application/json
> {
> "text": "This is a line of text.\nAnd this is another one."
> }
> {code}
> We plan to contribute this connector on November 24th 2016 in the context of
> a Open Source Hackathon at [DB Systel
> GmbH|http://www.dbsystel.de/dbsystel-en/start.html]
> See https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg11050.html
> *Design*
> - new connector module {{connectors/slack}} (similar to {{connectors/email}})
> - {{SlackConnector}} extending
> {{org.apache.manifoldcf.crawler.notifications.BaseNotificationConnector}}
> - using Apache HTTP Client (is already a dependency in ManifoldCF) for HTTP
> Post
> - -gson- jackson for creating the json request entity
> - support markdown messages
