41
42 webhook_request request response dirmatch
43 Handler for webhook HTTP request.
44
45 This handler only processes the HTTP part, parsing URI parameters and
46 POST contents.
47
48 The actual processing and IRC notification is done via an appropriate
49 "gitlab_webhook_*" event, asynchronously.
50
51 gitlab_webhook_push
52 Handle a gitlab webhook call for the "push" event (branch update).
53
54 Expects the body of the POST request (decoded, as a hash reference) in
55 ARG0 and all the request parameters in ARG1.
56
57 The request is expected to conform to the GitLab webhook documentation
58 at
59 <https://salsa.debian.org/help/user/project/integrations/webhooks.md#push-events>.
60
61 The request parameters should look like the result of the CGI's param()
62 method.
63
64 Supported parameters (?param=value¶m=value2...)
65
66 channel
67 The name of the channel to post notifications to. Leading hash sign
68 is optional and should be URL-encoded if present (%23).
69
70 network
71 The name of the IRC network, servicing the channel. Supported
72 networks are configured by the bot's admin.
73
74 private
75 A boolean flag, indicating that the notifications shouldn't also be
76 posted to the "#commits" channel on Freenode.
77
78 use_color
79 A boolean flag enabling colors. Defaults to true.
80
81 rev_prefix
82 Optional text to prepend to the commit ID.
83
84 use_irc_notices
85 If true, IRC notification uses "notice" messages, instead of
86 "privmsg". Defaults to 1.
87
88 "notice" messages are usually less intrusive.
89
90 squash_threshold number
91 For push events, limit the commit notifications to the given
92 number. If a branch update contains more commits, the usual
93 notifications are replaced by a single notification about the
94 number of the pushed commits.
95
96 Default: 20
