WebhookHandler

Combines Sinatra and Sidekiq into a neat package that makes creating simple apps that respond to webhooks a pleasure.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'webhook_handler'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install webhook_handler

Usage

Define a class and include the WebhookHandler module. This class then acts as a Sidekiq worker and a Sinatra app.

app.rb

require 'webhook_handler'

class MyApp
  include WebhookHandler

  def perform
    puts "Working hard!"
    sleep 5
  end
end

config.ru

require_relative './app'
run MyApp

Sinatra compatibility

You can also declare other routes in the class:

class MyApp
  include WebhookHandler

  def perform
    # ...
  end

  get '/status' do
    "I'm a regular Sinatra route!"
  end
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
