download the latest `index.json` file from [unpkg](https://unpkg.com/@octokit/webhooks-examples/api.github.com/index.json) ## Usage as Node module To get an array of all webhook definition objects, require the `@octokit/webhooks-examples` package. ```js // Use Node.js require: const WEBHOOKS = require("@octokit/webhooks-examples/api.github.com/index.json"); // Or ESM/TypeScript import: import WEBHOOKS from "@octokit/webhooks-examples/api.github.com/index.json"; ``` ## How it works This package updates itself using a daily cronjob running on GitHub Actions. The [`index.json`](index.json) file is generated by [`bin/octokit-webhooks.ts`](bin/octokit-webhooks.ts). Run `npm run octokit-webhooks -- --usage` for instructions. After the update is complete, run `npm run build:webhooks` and `npm run build:schema` to update `index.json` and `schema.json` files. The update script is scraping [GitHub’s Webhooks Event Types & Payloads](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/developers/webhooks-and-events/webhook-events-and-payloads) documentation page and extracts the meta information using [cheerio](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cheerio). For simpler local testing and tracking of changes all loaded pages are cached in the [`cache/`](cache/) folder. ## Adding examples - All payloads should end with `.payload.json`. - They should be placed in the folder whose name matches the event they're an example of. - If the payload has an `action`, that should be the start of the filename followed by a `.`. E.g. - `check_run/completed.payload.json` - `check_run/completed.with-organization.payload.json` - `check_run/rerequested.payload.json` - `check_run/rerequested.with-organization.payload.json` - `create/payload.json` - `create/with-description.payload.json` After making any changes to example payloads, run `npm run build:webhooks -- --cached` to update the exported `index.json` file ## See also - [octokit/graphql-schema](https://github.com/octokit/graphql-schema) – GitHub’s GraphQL Schema with validation - [octokit/openapi](https://github.com/octokit/openapi) – GitHub REST API route specifications - [octokit/app-permissions](https://github.com/octokit/app-permissions) – GitHub App permission specifications ## LICENSE [MIT](LICENSE.md)
