How do I receive Github Webhooks in Python

Question

Github offers to send Post-receive hooks to an URL of your choice when there\'s activity on your repo. I want to write a small Python command-line/backgroun

Answer 1

I would use:

https://github.com/carlos-jenkins/python-github-webhooks

You can configure a web server to use it, or if you just need a process running there without a web server you can launch the integrated server:

python webhooks.py

This will allow you to do everything you said you need. It, nevertheless, requires a bit of setup in your repository and in your hooks.

Late to the party and shameless autopromotion, sorry.
