Create mocked web hook handler at here https://beeceptor.com/
Copy the URL and append /github
and add this URL in the GitHub web hook.
Now we write our own server to post to discord web hook. Check this project
Run npm start
to start your local web server.
ngrock
is a npm package that converts your local server to public URL.
ngrok
opens up tunnel to local machine. So that your application can be publicly accessible through the tunnel.
Now our local server is running at http://localhost:3000
Lets install ngrok
and open this port for internet.
Download ngrok
and run the exe.
Add ngrok.exe path in the system environment so that you can access from anywhere.
We will expose local server over internet by getting brand new internet URL. Open powershell run below script to expose localhost:3000 to public internet.
ngrok http 3000
My local server is accessible over internet and I get http and https both URLs available to browse over internet
Next I can visit my URL over internet
Now in your github you can go and add the web hook URL that you generated just now. Make sure to append /github
on your URL.
Now if you start github repo you will receive the message to your discord channel.
You can visit the web hook payloads at this address http://localhost:4040/inspect/http from ngrok.
Here is the code so far
When we star/un-star we can read the avtar_url
of the user and show that in discord.
- Install
npm i nodemon -g
- Then run
nodemon start
to start your server in watch mode.
Now you can notice that we are able to post the avatar of the user from github to our discord channel.
const avatarUrl = req.body.sender.avatar_url;
Here is the source code so far
Twilio is a serverless solution that can respond to SMS coming to a virtual phone number.
Create a flow in Twilio to speak up when someone calls you.
You can record voicemail, convert voice to text
And use web hook URL to send the transcript.
You can install Twilio-CLI
globally to send messages from your local development machine.
npm i -g twilio-cli
Next login to twilio
by running twilio login
Run below script
twilio plugins:install @twilio-labs/plugin-serverless
Create project
twilio serverless:init ideacatcher --empty
Run project
twilio serverless:start
Navigate to http://localhost:3000/send-test
Your server is up and running.
