Webhook

The webhook notification service allows sending a generic HTTP request using the templatized request body and URL. Using Webhook you might trigger a Jenkins job, update GitHub commit status.

Parameters

The Webhook notification service configuration includes following settings:

  • url - the url to send the webhook to
  • headers - optional, the headers to pass along with the webhook
  • basicAuth - optional, the basic authentication to pass along with the webhook
  • insecureSkipVerify - optional bool, true or false
  • retryWaitMin - Optional, the minimum wait time between retries. Default value: 1s.
  • retryWaitMax - Optional, the maximum wait time between retries. Default value: 5s.
  • retryMax - Optional, the maximum number of retries. Default value: 3.

Retry Behavior

The webhook service will automatically retry the request if it fails due to network errors or if the server returns a 5xx status code. The number of retries and the wait time between retries can be configured using the retryMax, retryWaitMin, and retryWaitMax parameters.

The wait time between retries is between retryWaitMin and retryWaitMax. If all retries fail, the Send method will return an error.

Configuration

Use the following steps to configure webhook:

1 Register webhook in argo-rollouts-notification-configmap ConfigMap:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: argo-rollouts-notification-configmap
data:
  service.webhook.<webhook-name>: |
    url: https://<hostname>/<optional-path>
    headers: #optional headers
    - name: <header-name>
      value: <header-value>
    basicAuth: #optional username password
      username: <username>
      password: <api-key>
    insecureSkipVerify: true #optional bool

2 Define template that customizes webhook request method, path and body:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: argo-rollouts-notification-configmap
data:
  template.github-commit-status: |
    webhook:
      <webhook-name>:
        method: POST # one of: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH. Default value: GET 
        path: <optional-path-template>
        body: |
          <optional-body-template>
  trigger.<trigger-name>: |
    - when: app.status.operationState.phase in ['Succeeded']
      send: [github-commit-status]

3 Create subscription for webhook integration:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  annotations:
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.<trigger-name>.<webhook-name>: ""
