Running whole thing

Preparing ArangoDB

Once you downloaded hooks_svn_arangodb you will need just few more steps

• Make sure tht your ArangoDB is up and runnign and accessible from the machine where you install your service
• Run foxx install on foxx-service folder that comes from this repo

Once service is installed to the endpoint you specified, you can test it by going on http://your_arangodb_server/.../your_endpoint/hooks-svn/ and it should bring you response like the following:

{
    "result": "ok"
}

Here we go, you've got running.

You might want to put your Foxx service behind some proxy with different authentication rules and so on, like in some of my cases, I put my foxx services behind /api virtual folder on my web apps or even giving api subdoman to them.

Setting up the bot

Now we need to setup the bot itself, which is pretty straight forward CLI writtend in Node.js that using unirest, commander and node-svn-ultimate modules.

• Inside of . svn-bot folder run

yarn

Once dependencies are installed you can run yarn start

yarn start --help
