Python-slack-sdk: App quit after single task

[Xbeninni]

Description

My app quit after single task.

My code:

import os
from slack import RTMClient, WebClient

# run following command to add token to local env
# export SLACK_API_TOKEN = "SLACK TOKEN HERE"


@RTMClient.run_on(event='message')
def say_hello(**payload):
    data = payload['data']
    web_client = payload['web_client']
    rtm_client = payload['rtm_client']

    if 'Hello' in data['text']:
        channel_id = data['channel']
        thread_ts = data['ts']
        user = data['user']

        web_client.chat_postMessage(
            channel=channel_id,
            text=f"Hi <@{user}>!",
            thread_ts=thread_ts
        )

if __name__ == '__main__':
    slack_token = os.environ["SLACK_API_TOKEN"]
    client = WebClient(token=slack_token)
    response = client.chat_postMessage(
        channel='#random',
        text="Robot is now ready!")
    rtm_client = RTMClient(token=slack_token)
    rtm_client.start()

The replied message structure from bot doesn't have 'text' keyword, which causes the KeyError error. You can replace if 'Hello' in data['text']: with if 'Hello' in data.get('text', ''): to fix it.
