Also at work, like many Bay Area tech companies, we use HipChat (or Slack). Naturally I was inclined to issue a slash command to get the latest air quality index (AQI) for my area in a chat channel. I couldn’t find a good AQI bot so I wrote one.

Installation for Heroku is on the README of the project. How to add a slash command for HipChat and/or Slack are not covered in this blog entry, but it’s very easy 🙂 (I used /aq <zipcode> for command)

The bot (really an API endpoint) is here in my github repo. Feel free to use, improve, contribute to it.

You can find it in my github repo. Read the README.md file on how to set it up.
