}Download webhook definitions and webhook payloads schema
You can download the latest index.json file from
unpkg
Usage as Node module
To get an array of all webhook definition objects, require the @octokit/webhooks-examples package.
// 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 file is generated by
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 documentation page and extracts the meta information using cheerio.
For simpler local testing and tracking of changes all loaded pages are cached in
the 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.jsoncheck_run/completed.with-organization.payload.jsoncheck_run/rerequested.payload.jsoncheck_run/rerequested.with-organization.payload.jsoncreate/payload.jsoncreate/with-description.payload.json
After making any changes to example payloads, run
npm run build:webhooks -- --cached to update the exported index.json file
