Goordinator

Introduction

Goordinator listens for GitHub webhook events, runs their JSON payloads through a JQ filter query and triggers actions if the filter matches.

The only supported action is currently posting HTTP-Requests. All actions are executed in parallel and retried if they fail until a retry timeout expired (default: 2h).

Installation as systemd Service

1. Download a release archive from: https://github.com/simplesurance/goordinator/releases.

2. Extract the archive to a temporary directory.

3. Install goordinator to /usr/local/bin:

   install -o root -g root -m 775 goordinator /usr/local/bin/goordinator
   

4. Create a goordinator group and user:

   useradd -r goordinator
   

5. Copy the configuration files to /etc:

   cp -r dist/etc/* /etc/
   chmod 660 /etc/goordinator/config.toml
   chown root:goordinator /etc/goordinator/config.toml
   

6. Adapt the configuration and define your rules in /etc/goordinator/config.toml.

7. Enable the systemd service and start it:

   systemctl daemon-reload
   systemctl enable goordinator
   systemctl start goordinator
   

Configuration

Goordinator is configured via a config.toml file.
The path to the configuration file can be defined via --cfg-file commandline parameter.
A documented example configuration file can be found in the repository: dist/etc/goordinator/config.toml.

Template Strings

The configuration options of actions can contain template strings. The template strings are replaced with concrete values from the event that is processed.

The supported template strings are documented in the example config.toml file.
