Write a cron job to be run on IIITD servers to pull the repo and deploy about byld-website HOT 8 CLOSED

Great then !

If we're hosting a flask app, lets make a full fledged github app for this
It will add a status message from the backend on the master branch as well :)

from byld-website.

I have completely integrated the webhook for now
and added a security check to confirm it is github originated

Now I need some collaboration in the checks api
If someone has experience on how to trigger that pls do.

(We have instant pushes right now ;)

Can you check the compatibility of webhooks with our vpn ?
If this works, it would be awesome and mean that we can direct our travis/netlfy to deploy directly without any hassles

compatibility of webhooks with our vpn

What do you mean compatibility with vpn?

from byld-website.

I was unable to get ssh access without using our foriclient vpn
If there's any way to get the ssh access or just copy stuff also
Then it wold work just fine
(SInce github webhooks won't have an access to the forticlient vpn anyways and we need github servers to be able to communicate to iiitd servers)

When one of those events is triggered, we'll send a HTTP POST payload to the webhook's configured URL.

What we can do is use flask to statically host the built site it downloads from gh-pages branch and a special URL to which when it receives post requests, it would pull and build

Tho we'll have to keep this url endpoint secret / ratelimit it / have some way to check authenticity that request was made by github to avoid anyone sending a lot of requests to it and crashing it

Seems like we could use this:

To make sure that it's from github

GitHub App finalised !
We will now get all information about failures directly from the branch check :D
