This was technically a bug. For events that aren't unsupported
intentionally, the control should fall to the line that raises
UnknownWebhookEventType, and shouldn't be handled by anything else.
The events that are intentionally unsupported should be handled
more explicitly.
This is one of those weird webhooks where the
download-python-bindings.md macro doesn't work, because the user
only needs the bindings to run the one-time Trello script to register
the webhook and that script can be run from anywhere and doesn't need
to be "hosted" anywhere.
I spend a lot of time on this. One of our users had reported that
this webhook wasn't working at all. So I tested this with a local
ngrok instance and made sure that it was working. I also took this
opportunity to rewrite the docs for this, which were quite outdated.
With a few changes by Rishi Gupta!
This improves test coverage for a lot of our webhooks that relied
on ad-hoc methods to handle unexpected event types.
Note that I have deliberately skipped github_legacy, it isn't
advertised and is officially deprecated.
Also, I have refrained from making further changes to Trello, I
believe further improvements to test coverage should be covered
in separate per-webhook commits/PRs.
We ask our users to enable Snapshot notifications in Zulip via
Slack! But our Slack integration isn't exactly super robust and
I checked and our librato implementation isn't super smart about
handling snapshot payloads that come in via Slack.
Overall, this seems like a very poor solution, asking the user
to set up Slack in order to get the notifications in Zulip. So, I
thought we should get rid of at least the docs that suggest doing
this.
I also read librato/view.py and it wasn't clear to me how Slack
is supposed to act as an intermediate service here in a reliable
manner, which is another reason to not advertise this.
Epics are a way to further organize Pivotal Stories and are a
somewhat advanced feature that would take a significant amount of
work to properly implement. Unless we get requests for supporting
epics, I don't think we should support them.
We let Markdown increment the list step numbers, which is more
reliable than keeping track of numbered-steps manually.
Also, instead of linking to the CircleCI docs, we now have full
instructions for how to setup a webhook by modifying the circle.yml
file.
Ancient GitLab from several years ago doesn't include the
HTTP_X_GITLAB_EVENT header (and seems to have a different format), so
we should ignore its requests.
Might be good to document the version threshhold, but it's very hard
to tell from Googling what it is.
Rishi and I decided that it makes sense to get rid of the Facebook
integration for a few reasons, some of which are:
* The setup process is too complicated on Facebook's end. The users
will surely have to browse Facebook's huge API reference before even
having a vague idea of what they want.
* Slack chooses not to have a Facebook integration, but relies on
Zapier for it. Zaps that integrate with Facebook are much more
streamlined and the setup process isn't as much of a pain. Zapier's
Facebook Zaps are much more fine-tuned and there are different Zaps
for different parts of the FB API, a luxury that would likely span
2K+ lines of code on our end if we were to implement it from
scratch. So, I think we should relegate integration with Facebook to
Zapier as well!
* After thoroughly testing the setup process, we concluded that the
person who submitted the FB integration didn't really test it
thoroughly because there were some gaping holes in the docs (missing
steps, user permissions, etc.).
This one is one of the most tedious to set up and get working.
We now also rely on the Trello scripts available as part of the
`python-zulip-api/zulip` API package to make the setup process
easier.
This was a user-reported bug and a very subtle and painful one
to track down.
Previously, if payload['push']['changes'][i]['closed'] was True,
we assumed that a branch was removed. Looking at whether `closed`
was set to True or not was our way to tell whether a push removed
a branch or not.
However, this is wrong! `closed` being set to True can also mean
that the pull request associated with the branch was approved but
the branch itself was not deleted. According to the BitBucket docs,
the correct way to see if a branch is deleted is to check if `new`
is null.
This bug was leading to KeyErrors about not being able to find
the `commits` key, which shouldn't happen anymore!
