Summary
Adds a Context Actions block example to the
block-kitshowcase, mirroring the official Block Kit reference. Thecontext_actionsblock displays interactive elements at the message level.example01()— feedback buttons (thumbs up / down)example02()— an icon button (delete)Both examples construct the SDK-provided
ContextActionsBlockviaBlocks.contextActions(...), usingFeedbackButtonsElementandIconButtonElement(imported fromcom.slack.api.model.block/...block.element). No block types are redefined in this example repo.SDK dependency
The
context_actions,feedback_buttons, andicon_buttontypes are already present in the releasedslack-api-model:1.49.0that this module pins, so no SDK bump is required — the build resolves and compiles against the existing dependency.Note: The SDK also now includes
card,carousel, andalertblocks as of slackapi/java-slack-sdk#1624 (merged 2026-07-28). Examples for those blocks can be added in a follow-up.Docs
