Webhook Go

Webhook Go is a port of the puppet_webhook Sinatra API server to Go. This is designed to be more streamlined, performant, and easier to ship for users than the Sinatra/Ruby API server.

This server is a REST API server designed to accept Webhooks from version control systems, such as GitHub or GitLab, and execute actions based on those webhooks. Specifically, the following tasks:

Prerequisites

While there are no prerequisites for running the webhook server itself, for it to be useful, you will need the following installed on the same server or another server for this tool to be useful:

Installation

Download a Pre-release Binary from the Releases page, make it executable, and run the server.

Configuration

The Webhook API server uses a configuration file called webhook.yml to configure the server. Several of the required options have defaults pre-defined so that a configuration file isn't needed for basic function.

webhook.yaml.example:

server:
  protected: false
  user: puppet
  password: puppet
  port: 4000
  tls:
    enabled: false
    certificate: "/path/to/tls/certificate"
    key: "/path/to/tls/key"
  queue:
    enabled: true
    max_concurrent_jobs: 10
    max_history_items: 20
chatops:
  enabled: false
  service: slack
  channel: "#general"
  user: r10kbot
  auth_token: 12345
  server_uri: "https://rocketchat.local"
r10k:
  config_path: /etc/puppetlabs/r10k/r10k.yaml
  default_branch: main
  allow_uppercase: false
  verbose: true

Microsoft Teams notifications

Create an "Incoming Webhook" connector in Teams at the designated channel as described in the documentation: Create Incoming Webhooks at learn.microsoft.com. Keep the URL confidential!

Configure the service in the webhook.yaml:

chatops:
  enabled: true
  service: teams
  server_uri: "<Teams Webhook URI>"

Notifications are colored, according to their status. green: Success red: Failure orange: Warning

Press the Details button to get more information.

If the queue is enabled in the server part of webhook.yaml, then two notifications are emitted: First, when the request is added to the queue and second, when the request was processed.

Bolt authentication

Due to the inherent security risk associated with passing plain text passwords to the Bolt CLI tool, all ability to set it within the application have been removed.

Instead, it is recommended to instead utilize the Bolt Transport configuration options and place them within the bolt-defaults.yaml file.

If you want to utilize an inventory.yaml and place the targets and auth config within that file, you can. Just be sure to remember to add the target name containing the nodes you need to the webhook.yml file

Usage

Webhook API provides following paths

GET /health

Get health assessment about the Webhook API server

GET /api/v1/queue

Get current queue status of the Webhook API server

POST /api/v1/r10k/environment

Updates a given puppet environment, ie. r10k deploy environment. This only updates a specific environment governed by the branch name.

POST /api/v1/r10k/module

Updates a puppet module, ie. r10k deploy module. The default behavior of r10k is to update the module in all environments that have it. Module name defaults to the git repository name.
