You have to prepare a Slack token to use files.upload API.

Steps to get a token (last updated at Dec. 2, 2018):

1. Access https://api.slack.com/apps, click "Create New App" and create an app in your workspace (or use existed app).
2. Click "OAuth & Permissions", find Scopes, select "Upload and modify files as user (files:write:user)". After, click "Save Changes".
3. Scroll to top, click "Install App to Workspace" and authorize.
4. Then you can get "Oauth Access Token".

If you got a token, add following into your Vim/Neovim config file.

let g:snipslack_token = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

Note: This config should not be open to the public. Handle this with care.

And you have to set channel to post snippet. If you want to post into #snippets, like this:

let g:snipslack_default_channel = '#snippets'

If you want to post as DM, like this:

let g:snipslack_default_channel = '@abekoh'

Now setup is finished, you are able to post snippets!

If you want to post all of current buffer, use like this:

:SnipSlack

If you want to post a part of current buffer, select with visual mode and type above command. As a result command will be like this:

:'<,'>SnipSlack

If it succeeds, you can see a snippet in Slack channel that you configured.

Limit of snippet's line. Default: 1000

g:snipslack_limit_lines = 500

Enable to post with GitHub URL. Set 0 to disable. Default: 1
