events-backend-module-github

Welcome to the events-backend-module-github backend plugin!

This plugin is a module for the events-backend backend plugin and extends it with an GithubEventRouter.

The event router will subscribe to the topic github and route the events to more concrete topics based on the value of the provided x-github-event metadata field.

Examples:

x-github-event	topic

repository	github.repository

Please find all possible webhook event types at the official documentation.
