webhook VS script

Try this awesome tool https://github.com/adnanh/webhook and you can make any bot you wish

Something like this: https://github.com/adnanh/webhook for a low code solution. This is the just the top hit, there tons of “Linux WebHook receivers” out there. Container A has the WebHook config to run ffmpeg. Container B runs curl to trigger the WebHook. Can be instrumented with fairly simple shell script.

If all you need is a Webhook trigger, you might want to take a look at https://github.com/adnanh/webhook

I thought this is for receiving webhooks at first glance, like another alternative for node-red, n8n.io, and adnanh/webhook.

you can register a webhook on github and listen to it from your second pc using https://github.com/adnanh/webhook

I occasionally trigger playbooks using this simple go project https://github.com/adnanh/webhook.

You can do a hell of a lot with webhooks, a bit of scripting and, err, webhook.

I use https://github.com/adnanh/webhook to deploy the changes in the git repository to the server and have it run docker compose up -d. I actually just modified it this week to run the docker commands in a background queue using https://vicerveza.homeunix.net/~viric/soft/ts/ (commands are added to a queue and run in the order they were added, useful for long-running commands) this way webhook can reply that the git repository was updated on the server and the docker compose command was added to the task queue and webhook doesn't timeout.

I use Go. You can run scripts with go run directly, and this package makes shell tasks easy: https://github.com/bitfield/script

If you're not deeply familiar with Go there is one detail missing from this post (though it's in the script README) - what a complete program looks like. Here's the example from https://github.com/bitfield/script#a-realistic-use-case

    package main

Imho also worth mentioning: https://github.com/bitfield/script

I would say bitfield/script is the closest thing to plumbum. You should check out this article written by the author.

There are lua and Go-script options. My impression is that a few are well accepted but perhaps just a little less widely used than the first two. I cannot speak from personal experience on them. Shopify has a Lua 5.2 port: https://github.com/Shopify/go-lua and I know https://github.com/bitfield/script is one of the Go-like scripting languages, but I think it's more for a shell script replacement than embedding.

Parallel to my other comment, u/Akirapearl, if you find yourself getting annoyed at Go’s system-language focus, you might find John’s “script” Go library useful: https://github.com/bitfield/script

It took me a while to find the link to the library "script" and it's repo - https://github.com/bitfield/script
