git-webhook-ci v2.0.0-beta
git-webhook-ci
A Git (github/gitee) webhook callback server to fetch new code (poor man CI)
This little tool is born out of real projects. Keep having to deploy and setup demo site etc. Why bother if you own the git account? You just need a new cert from github, add this to your project, and setup accordingly, and Viola, you get your own poor man CI :)
Installation
$ npm install --save git-webhook-cior
$ yarn add git-webhook-ciConfiguration and usage
Create a js file (normally on your project root directory). Let's call it webhook.js.
const gitWebhook = require('git-webhook-ci')
const config = {
"provider": "github", // from version 2 you MUST provide this
"secret": "your-github-webhook-secret",
"path": "/webhook",
"port": 8081,
"branch": "refs/heads/master", // New in 0.4.1 you can pass * wildcard to listen to all branches
"cmd": "git pull origin master --no-edit",
"error": (err) => {
// do thing with your error
}
}

Debug option
Internally we use debug to track what's going on. So you can just pass the env during the start up of the script to debug your setup.
DEBUG=* node ./webhook.jsIf you do that, you will see a huge amount of info. All our debug flags are prefixed with git-webhook-ci,
and here is the list of all the keys we use in this npm.
- git-webhook-ci:error - This is the most likely you will use, to see the error message
- git-webhook-ci:main - You will see the configuration option being pass to the main method
- git-webhook-ci:gitlab
- git-webhook-ci:github
- git-webhook-ci:gitee
- git-webhook-ci:wechat
For example:
DEBUG=git-webhook-ci:main,git-webhook-ci:error node ./webhook.jsThen you will only see the main (top interface) and the Wechat internal debug messages.
CLI
We drop the cli support since V.2 due to the large amount of configuration options. You can try to write your own follow this example
