Webhook
Webhooks
</h3>
<p>
I altered the systemd service definition for <code>webhook</code> so I could
organize the hook definitions into separate files. I also set
<code>User=joshua</code> and <code>Group=joshua</code> so the commands run as
my user instead of root.
</p>
<p><code>sudo mkdir /etc/webhook.conf.d/</code></p>
<p><code>/lib/systemd/system/webhook.service</code></p>
<pre><code class="language-ini">[Unit]
Description=Small server for creating HTTP endpoints (hooks)

</code></pre>
<p>
If you are debugging your webhook output, consider adding
<code>-debug</code> next to <code>-nopanic</code> for more useful logs.
</p>
<p>
After changing the service definition, reload systemd to run the updated
service:
</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">sudo systemctl daemon-reload
</code></pre>
<p>Then you can remove the now-unused config file:</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">sudo rm /etc/webhook.conf
</code></pre>
<p>Here are the three hook definitions:</p>

To trigger these hooks I am using <code>webhook</code> which is in the default
Debian repository.
</p>
<p>
Here are the hook definitions: one for creating/updating a site, and one for
deleting. You will need to generate one or two secret values that the server
can use to know that the webhook is authorized to run. I used linux command
<code>uuidgen -r</code> to create mine. Save these values so you can enter
them in Forgejo later.
</p>
<p>
Also make sure to replace your execute-command lines with ones referencing
your username and script paths.

There is room to make the scripts a little smarter. They dont handle renaming
very well right now, and a few times I had to log in and manually run my
webhook scripts, like this:
</p>
<pre><code class="language-bash">~/webhooks/create-pages.sh marklink.pages.seigler.net "https://git.apps.seigler.net/joshua/marklink.pages.seigler.net.git"
</code></pre>
<p>
The really important thing is that updates just require pushing to
<code>gh-pages</code> which you can easily do with e.g.
For repos with npm build scripts, I use
<a
href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/gh-pages"
target="_blank"
rel="noopener"
>gh-pages @ npm</a
>.
>
to push the build to the gh-pages branch and up to the server.
</p>
<p>
Im also putting off rolling my own CI server, but I imagine thats the next
stage here. Stay tuned.
