Using SparkPost Webhooks To Report On Recipient OS Preferences

This project accepts SparkPost webhooks event batches and maintains a report of recipient OS preferences based on the user_agent field from click events.

Prerequisites

• Elixir (1.4 used)
• Phoenix (1.3 used)
• Node.js/NPM for client side assets (Node 6.11, NPM 3.10 used)

Usage

To start your Phoenix server:

• Grab the code with git clone github.com/SparkPost/elixir-webhook-sample
• Install dependencies with mix deps.get
• Configure your database in config/dev.exs
• Create and migrate your database with mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate
• Install Node.js dependencies with cd assets && npm install
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.

Sending Test Data To Your Service

Using SparkPost

Register your service as a webhook endpoint on your SparkPost account. You can do that here.. SparkPost includes a webhook test facility - just click on the "TEST" link beside your webhook to send a test batch.

Using a Local Test Event Batch

This repo contains 2 sample webhook event batches which you can use to show your service working. You can send a test event batch to your service like this:

curl -XPOST -H "Content-type: application/json" -d @batch.json http://localhost:4000/webhook
