Review request for feature of rb-gateway to support webhooks on git events. The workflow is
1) Once rb-gateway runs, it installs hookscripts in the repos' it manages. It will install the hookscript under: path/to/repo/.git/hooks/<event-type>.d/99-rb-gateway.sh
in addition to a <event-type>
script under path/to/repo/.git/hooks/
that runs any pre-existing <event-type>
scripts in the repo. We only support the post-commit
event for now.
2) Make a commit in the repo hosted on rb-gateway. This will run the hookscript installed in Step 1
3) Hookscript will run which will pipe the commit data from Step 2 to rb-gateway and rb-gateway will make an HTTP request to the reviewboard instance (assuming this is properly configured in config.json
)
4) Reviewboard will receive this HTTP request, and close the corresponding review
Between the first diff and the latest one, there's been a lot of file movement since I was working off a patch link r/9402 but there was a non-trivial rewrite of rb-gateway in between on master.
Changes include:
1) Updating README on how to run rbgateway
2) Adding API calls for changing the config through http requests rather than having to change the file itself(i.e. DeleteWebhook
DisableWebhook
RegisterWebhook
)
3) Default hookscripts included in rb-gateway, rb-gateway will automatically install them based on ./config/post-commit.sh (or whatever future event-type we will support)
4) Rb-gateway sending an HTTP POST
to the webhook urls
