# send emails to root to slack
## slack side
First you must go [here](https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks) and create
a new slack app and choose a channel and get a webhook URL.
```
mkdir -p /etc/environment.d
echo 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXXXXX/XXXXXXX/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' >
/etc/environment.d/SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL
```
## prerequisites
```
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
apt update
apt -y install git python3 make postfix daemontools
```
## install helper
```
mkdir -p /etc/environment.d
git clone https://github.com/sneak/hacks.git /tmp/hacks && \
cd /tmp/hacks/forward-email-to-slack-webhook && \
make install
```
## example usage
`apt install -y smartmontools`
Now you'll get a slack notification when your disk is going to die, because
smartmontools emails root by default when it detects problems.
