(Proposal) Opentoonz Github Feed via Webhooks #197

Open RodneyBaker opened 4 years ago

RodneyBaker commented 4 years ago

This is to get the process started for an Opentoonz development newsfeed via webhooks.

To get the word out about Opentoonz sites enabled with Webhooks can receive automated feeds from github. This can include just the basic release information or it can notify of everything. Running feeds of everything is a bit much but general release information to include when bug fixes are merged and features are added ensures the Opentoonz community has their pulse on where the software is.

Currently the primary Opentoonz discord has a channel set up to receive the webhooks feed. What is now needed is for the Opentoonz github to have the basic webhooks activated so the channel can receive the information automatically.

For additional information on github use of Webhooks:

Changing this to WIP and tagging with Research to try to determine the best way to move forward and to make it easy for @shun-iwasawa to review, understand and implement (as appropriate).

The specific way forward for R&D will likely be to implement via another github repo and then once determined to be successful repeat the same thing for the Opentoonz repo.

The specific goal remains: Establish a 'newsfeed' via webhooks where external parties can use the URL of the webhook to keep up with Opentoonz development and releases through RSS-like feed.

TODO: Determine what options are best made available in the feeds and also those which are not desired and as a matter of general policy should never be in the feed (example: Any personal information, trade secrets (which shouldn't be on github anyway!), etc.

Closing as part of general housekeeping. As this was my proposal I'll say I'm still very interested in getting webhooks going for Opentoonz so that information can be shared automatically relating to the development of Opentoonz via webhooks.

Reopening as this is still relavent if we want to allow github notifications to various places such as discord via webhooks.
