Dog API

This is the Dog API and it provides dog facts as a service dogdog 🐶

Add to Slack

This will enable two things:

One daily random fact posted in the channel you select.
A Slack slash command (/dogfact) to retrieve a single fact on any channel.

If installation was successful you'll receive a welcome message :)

Privacy Policy

Dog Facts is just for fun. The only data retained by Dog Facts is your team webhook url (which is required to post Dog Facts messages to your Slack). Otherwise, no data is kept.

Use it as an API

Host it yourself

First make sure you have the following dependencies installed.

Ruby greater than 2.3.0
SQLite3

Go ahead and clone this repository.

git clone git@github.com:kinduff/dog-api.git

Then install the dependencies.

bundle install

After that you'll need to setup your database, run the following command to run migrations.

rake db:migrate

And finally, fill out your database with the latest dog facts included in the db/seeds.rb file.

rake db:seed

Run the application by running the following command.

rake server

Or just rake by it self. The application should now be running in http://localhost:4567.

Why you made this?

There's a Cat API that returns cat facts. I like cats but I like dogs more. Equilibrium must exists.

Lot's of places, I'll list them tomorrow, mom.
