Current documentation suggests to use personal API tokens. This isn't ideal because for a few reasons: * messages will come as your own user, so it's hard to tell it's coming from hass * it's harder to manage if multiple people are using Slack and home * assistant, since you'd have to coordinate rolling of it It is possible to use Slack bot users already. Just make a new one from https://your-team.slack.com/apps/build/custom-integration, and use the token for that. You can even add an icon from the web frontend for home assistant. However, the message will appear as a bot without a name or icon. This pull requests fixes this by passing the as_user parameter, which uses the bot user's name and icon. One caveat is you need to invite the bot user into the room you want to post to. This probably was an issue before though. 🎩 to @jnewland who pointed me to this in his branch

==============================================================================================================================================================================================
Home Assistant is a home automation platform running on Python 3. The
goal of Home Assistant is to be able to track and control all devices at
home and offer a platform for automating control.
To get started:
.. code:: bash
python3 -m pip install homeassistant
hass --open-ui
Check out `the website <https://home-assistant.io>`__ for `a
demo <https://home-assistant.io/demo/>`__, installation instructions,
tutorials and documentation.

Build home automation on top of your devices:
- Keep a precise history of every change to the state of your house
- Turn on the lights when people get home after sunset
- Turn on lights slowly during sunset to compensate for less light
- Turn off all lights and devices when everybody leaves the house
- Offers a `REST API <https://home-assistant.io/developers/rest_api/>`__
and can interface with MQTT for easy integration with other projects
like `OwnTracks <http://owntracks.org/>`__
- Allow sending notifications using
`Instapush <https://instapush.im>`__, `Notify My Android
(NMA) <http://www.notifymyandroid.com/>`__,
`PushBullet <https://www.pushbullet.com/>`__,
`PushOver <https://pushover.net/>`__, `Slack <https://slack.com/>`__,
`Telegram <https://telegram.org/>`__, `Join <http://joaoapps.com/join/>`__, and `Jabber
(XMPP) <http://xmpp.org>`__
The system is built using a modular approach so support for other devices or actions can
be implemented easily. See also the `section on
architecture <https://home-assistant.io/developers/architecture/>`__
and the `section on creating your own
components <https://home-assistant.io/developers/creating_components/>`__.
