Deploy Probot apps using a web-based setup form
Creating a new GitHub App is free and easy. And there is a growing list of really
cool bots built with Probot ready for you to
deploy. With glitch-github-app
, you can deploy own instances for all of them
directly to Glitch, without writing a single line of code
or ever touching your terminal.
Get started at probot.glitch.me 🤖🎏✨
How it works
Glitch, compared to over deployment services like now
or Heroku, allows you to write to the file system of your
application. glitch-github-app
takes advantage of that and simply overrides
itself :)
When you submit the form, it uploads your *private-key.pem
to .data/private-key.pem
where only you can and the app can access it. It also writes the configuration
like your Webhook Secret and the app id into the .env
file, which is also only
accessible to you.
Once the form is submitted, your GitHub App is ready to go!
