Munster is a Rails engine that provides a webhook endpoint for receiving and processing webhooks from various services. Engine stores received webhook first and later processes webhook in a separete async process.
Caution
At the moment Munster is only used internally at Cheddar. Any support to external parties is on best-effort basis. While we are happy to see issues and pull requests, we can't guarantee that those will be addressed quickly. The engine does receive rapid updates which may break your application if you come to depend on the library. That is to be expected.
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add munster
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install munster
Generate migrations and initializer file.
munster:install
Mount munster engine in your routes.
mount Munster::Engine, at: "/webhooks"
This project depends on two dependencies:
- Ruby >= 3.0
- Rails >= 7.0
This gem uses Rails common error reporter to report any possible error to services like Honeybadger, Appsignal, Sentry and etc. Most of those services already support this common interface, if not - it's not that hard to add this support on your own.
It's possible to provide additional context for every error. e.g.
Munster.configure do |config|
config.error_context = { appsignal: { namespace: "webhooks" } }
end
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
