Simple Github -> Discord webhook

Github Webhook Tutorial.md

Step 1 - Make a Discord Webhook

1. Find the Discord channel in which you would like to send commits and other updates

2. In the settings for that channel, find the Webhooks option and create a new webhook. Note: Do NOT give this URL out to the public. Anyone or service can post messages to this channel, without even needing to be in the server. Keep it safe!

Step 2 - Set up the webhook on Github

1. Navigate to your repository on Github, and open the Settings

2. Select Add Webhook

3. Paste in the webhook url and append /github to the end. Select "Send me everything", set the type to application/json, and then Add Webhook

4. Test it by updating something or starring the repository! If it works, you're all set!

Got it working:

1. delete hook
2. create new hook
3. add /github at the end,
4. select content type to application/json

There is an official list of supported events from Discord, and no plans to add more;

discord/discord-api-docs#6203 (comment)

If your event is not on the list, you'll still get a 204, but nothing will come through.

Got it working:

1. delete hook

2. create new hook

3. add /github at the end,

4. select content type to `application/json`

my man <3 +1

Is it possible to send the whole commit message rather then the first few words?

+1

Displaying the name of the target being build would be nice too (I have 4 .yml workflows and they all just display "build success on master").

I've found a solution, if there's still X's on your webhook, just straight up delete that and create a new one and Make sure to add /github at the discord webhook after you pasted it, hope this helps!

This works. This is the only thing that works.

Add the /github at the end of the Webhook URL.

I'm trying to implement the same. But it is more specific. I looked at the GitHub events, they are more generic and not action specific.
E.g I want to receive a message only when a PR is merged or a certain comment is added to the PR.
Is there a way yo to customise this behaviour?

@haddercone try this: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/discord-webhook-action

Is it possible to disable the pushing feature for private repos?

Hello all past and future!

I made a Discord bot to make this process a bit easier: GitHub Bot for Discord.

Just add the bot to your Discord server and use /github commands to create/delete subscriptions to various GitHub repo events. It uses the minimum permissions needed and should help make this process easier! ✅

I love that this is a thing! Keep up the good work!_

I tried this, Github shows the requests going out with 204 responses coming back, but nothing appears in discord?

I think you haven't add /github at the end :)

worked without a hitch. thanks.

any idea why is necesary to add /github at the end?? It work, but...

Because it helps GitHub to map to a specific endpoint in case of discord.
You can have multiple endpoint on a single domain.

You can achieve this by creating your own endpoints.
E.g. you can create a simple node.js server which has two endpoints /a and /b that do different tasks.

• Host your node js server on service like render. It will provide you with a domain.
• Create two different webhooks in GitHub.
• For each webhook, keep the domain name same but add different endpoints for different GitHub event.

Now you have two webhooks which are mapped to two different GitHub events, but with a single domain name.

Got it. But damn Discord should say something about this, because it let you copy the webhook url and don't say a word about /github. I also get that is some GitHub stuffs, but is not clear to add /github to the discord webhook at all. El mié., 17 de julio de 2024 11:23 a. m., Robin Singh < ***@***.***> escribió:

is it possible to ping/mention/notify everyone or certain people using the webhook?

Hi. Have you found a way to achieve this?

You can, but not natively. You can either use a bot that can automatically respond with a ping or (a bit trickier) use a bot and a private channel for the Girhub-webhook, so that GitHub sends the message to your private Discord channel and the bot "copies" this message and adds mentions. -- VG Luca (Von meinem Handy gesendet) KobeW50 ***@***.***> schrieb am Do., 8.

Thank you. Do you know of any public bots that can do either of these? (I only tried YAGPDB, but even custom commands doesn't work since it doesn't listen for webhooks)

(Also, a few minutes ago someone shared this with me. It just seems like a bit of a pain to set up)

I would suggest Sapphire with the new Sticky Message feature for "reply with ping".
It could also be possible to use the Automod feature but I don't know if bot-messages (what a webhook message is) are recognized.
I could make you a custom bot that does this easily if you want (@thelukez)

Thank you for the advice and the offer @The-LukeZ 🙏

I opted to try @mrgoonie 's suggestion, and it is working flawlessly. Thank you

Thank you for sharing this clear and helpful guide on setting up a Discord webhook with GitHub! The step-by-step instructions make it easy to follow, and the added note about keeping the webhook URL private is crucial. It's great to have a straightforward process for integrating GitHub updates directly into Discord channels. This will definitely streamline communication for projects. Appreciate you taking the time to share this!
