Setup Webhook

When a package is changed in github we need these changes to be pushed to private packagist for example we need latest release of a plugin in packagist.

Github communicates with private packagist by a web hook but this needs to be setuo.

If you go into the main info page (within private packagist) about the package you have just added you should see the following message where a url will replace [web-hook-url].

This package doesn't support the automatic setup of webhooks. Set up a hook doing a POST request to [web-hook-url]

Copy this url as you will need this to setup the webhook in github.

Go the settings then webhooks in your package's github repo. Click the add webhook button.

Add your [web-hook-url] to the payload url field. Leave the 'content type' and secret as default

On "Which events would you like to trigger this webhook?". Select 'Let me select individual events'.

Then select the following events

• Branch or tag creation
• Branch or tag deletion
• Pushes
• Releases
• Repositories

Make sure the active box is ticked and click the 'Add webhook' button.
