kgb-bot - an IRC bot helping collaborative work
kgb-bot [--config file] [--foreground] [--simulate file]
Specify configuration file to load. Default is /etc/kgb-bot/kgb.conf.
Specify directory with configuration files to load. All files like *.conf are loaded, in alphabetical order. Default is /etc/kgb-bot/kgb.conf.d.
Do not detach from console, print log messages to STDERR and do not become a daemon, useful for debugging.
Do not connect to IRC. Instead, output each notification line to the given file, like:
#chan repo user branch revision module changed-paths #chan repo commit message line 1 #chan repo commit message line 2
There are no colour codes in the output, unless --simulate-color is also given.
Include color codes in the file used by --simulate.

Handler for webhook HTTP request.
This handler only processes the HTTP part, parsing URI parameters and POST contents.
The actual processing and IRC notification is done via an appropriate gitlab_webhook_* event, asynchronously.
gitlab_webhook_*
Handle a gitlab webhook call for the push event (branch update).
push
Expects the body of the POST request (decoded, as a hash reference) in ARG0 and all the request parameters in ARG1.
The request is expected to conform to the GitLab webhook documentation at https://salsa.debian.org/help/user/project/integrations/webhooks.md#push-events.
The request parameters should look like the result of the CGI's param() method.
Supported parameters (?param=value¶m=value2...)
The name of the channel to post notifications to. Leading hash sign is optional and should be URL-encoded if present (%23).
The name of the IRC network, servicing the channel. Supported networks are configured by the bot's admin.
A boolean flag, indicating that the notifications shouldn't also be posted to the #commits channel on Freenode.
#commits
A boolean flag enabling colors. Defaults to true.
Optional text to prepend to the commit ID.
If true, IRC notification uses notice messages, instead of privmsg. Defaults to 1.
notice
privmsg
1
notice messages are usually less intrusive.
For push events, limit the commit notifications to the given number. If a branch update contains more commits, the usual notifications are replaced by a single notification about the number of the pushed commits.
Default: 20
