GitHub Events -> InfluxDB

This little binary implements a GitHub webhook which forwards events to InfluxDB.

Configuration

Configuration is done according to the Twelve-Factor App config guideliens in the environment.

• INFLUXDB: The URL to the Influx database. The path component of the URL specifies the database. Example: http://root:[email protected]:8086/dbname. Minimal complete definition MUST include username, password, hostname and dbname.

• HOOKPATH: The path where the hook accepts events. This is optional, when not specified then this default is used: webhook.

• SECRET_TOKEN: The secret token which is used to verify the payload. Consult the GitHub documentation how to configure the secret token on GitHub.

Example:

INFLUXDB=http://... HOOKPATH=github-events ./github-influx-bridge

On the GitHub side, go to the repository settings and add a new webhook. Make sure the path component of the Payload URL matches the HOOKPATH. You can safely send all events to this hook (select the Send me everything. option).
