Test the web app before deploying?

[BoltzmannBrain]

Is there a recommended way to test the web app defined in the script webhooks.py locally? Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm new to webhooks and web apps in general.

Hi,

To test your hook you may use the GitHub REST API:

https://developer.github.com/v3/

curl --user "<youruser>" https://api.github.com/repos/<youruser>/<myrepo>/hooks

Take note of the test_url.

curl --user "<youruser>" -i -X POST <test_url>

You should be able to see any log error in your webapp.

I'll keep this issue open to remember me to add this information to the README.

Regards
