summary: Publish Github commits over pubsub
---

## Introduction

This module accepts Github web hooks and publishes them to a local
pubsub component for XMPP clients to subscribe to.

Entries are pushed as Atom payloads.

It may also work with Gitlab.

## Configuration

Load the module on a pubsub component:

    Component "pubsub.example.com" "pubsub"
        modules_enabled = { "pubsub_github" }

The module also takes the following config options:

  Name                    Default             Description
  ----------------------- ------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------
  `github_node`           `"github"`{.lua}    The pubsub node to publish commits on.
  `github_secret`         *not set*           Shared secret used to sign HTTP requests.

The URL for Github to post to would be either:

-   http://pubsub.example.com:5280/pubsub\_github
-   https://pubsub.example.com:5281/pubsub\_github

If your HTTP host doesn't match the pubsub component's address, you will
need to inform Prosody. For more info see Prosody's [HTTP server
documentation](https://prosody.im/doc/http#virtual_hosts).
