Please note the following new environment variables:

• SLACK_ACCESS_TOKEN: The access token for Slack API authentication.
• PLUGIN_CUSTOM_BLOCK: Custom blocks in JSON format to include in the Slack message.

Make sure to replace your_access_token with your actual Slack access token and adjust

If you provide an access token, it will use the Slack API to send the message. Otherwise, it will use the webhook.

Release Preparation

Run the changelog generator.

docker run -it --rm -v "$(pwd)":/usr/local/src/your-app githubchangeloggenerator/github-changelog-generator -u drone-plugins -p drone-slack -t <secret github token>
