Clones and maintains directories with the latest contents of a branch.
$ ./gitlab-webhook.py --port 8000 [email protected]:vinodc/gitlab-webhook-branch-deployer.git /home/vinod/gwbd
This will run the process and listen on port 8000 for POST requests from Gitlab that correspond to the repository vinodc/gitlab-webhook-branch-deployer. When it receives a request, it will clone the branches that were
indicated as having been updated to the directory /home/vinod/gwbd.
It will ignore any branch with a '/' in it's name. This is intentional, to allow for feature branches or similar that will not be cloned.
For help: $ ./gitlab-webhook.py -h
I recommend using http://supervisord.org/ or similar to run the script. For the sake of completion, here are the contents of my supervisord conf.d file:
