📥 Receiver

You will be able to run the server by using python server.py.

Demo Receiver

➜  python server.py
 * Serving Flask app 'server' (lazy loading)
 * Environment: production

   Use a production WSGI server instead.
 * Debug mode: off
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)

📤 Sender (Local)

You will be able to send a webhook request locally to the server above running the webhook_local.py file by using python webhook_local.py (on another terminal than the one where the server.py script is running).

Demo Sender (Local)

➜ python webhook_local.py
Success

If you do so, the terminal with the server.py script running will return the JSON it received:

➜  python server.py
