Description
The response headers in Slack's Web API contain information that is sometimes useful. For example x-oauth-scopes
is a list of scopes that the token has. This is the only way (that I know of) to check the scopes on an existing token through the API. My use case is I'd like to be able to use auth.test
to check the scopes on a token via x-oauth-scopes
.
The current implementation doesn't give a way to access the response headers on a successful request, since it returns only the body:
response.body |
The headers are accessible on the error object raised on failed requests since the entire response object is on the error:
slack_error.response.headers
I'm trying to think how we could make the headers accessible on successful responses. Some bad ideas:
- Shove them into the body object under the key
response_headers
. This object is then wrapped inSlack::Messages::Message
and returned. I don't like this because it pollutes the body. - An option that can be passed to any request (possibly also set on a client) that causes it to return something different:
- The entire raw
response
object, giving access to the body as well as the headers (and much else). [body, response_headers]
- etc.
- The entire raw
