title: Creating Releases using Webhooks

What does this mean?

ContentDB offers the ability to automatically create releases using webhooks from either Github or Gitlab. If you're not using either of those services, you can also use the API to create releases.

The process is as follows:

  1. The user creates an API Token and a webhook to use it. This can be done automatically for Github.
  2. The user pushes a commit to the git host (Gitlab or Github).
  3. The git host posts a webhook notification to ContentDB, using the API token assigned to it.
  4. ContentDB checks the API token and issues a new releases.

This feature is in beta, and is only available for Trusted Members.

Setting up

  1. Go to your package page.
  2. Make sure that the repository URL is set to a Github repository. Only github.com is supported.
  3. Click "Set up a webhook to create releases automatically" below the releases panel on the side bar.
  4. Grant ContentDB the ability to manage Webhooks

Configuring

Setting minimum and maximum Minetest versions

This feature is unimplemented.

  2. Set min_protocol and max_protocol to the respective protocol numbers of the Minetest versions.
