Libraries to handle GitHub Webhooks in .NET applications.

Usage

ASP.NET Core

  1. dotnet add package Octokit.Webhooks.AspNetCore

  2. Create a class that derives from WebhookEventProcessor and override any of the virtual methods to handle webhooks from GitHub. For example, to handle Pull Request webhooks:

    public sealed class MyWebhookEventProcessor : WebhookEventProcessor
    {
        protected override Task ProcessPullRequestWebhookAsync(WebhookHeaders headers, PullRequestEvent pullRequestEvent, PullRequestAction action) {
            ...
        }
    }
  3. Register your implementation of WebhookEventProcessor:

    builder.Services.AddSingleton<WebhookEventProcessor, MyWebhookEventProcessor>();
  4. Map the webhook endpoint:

    app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
    {
        ...
        endpoints.MapGitHubWebhooks();
        ...
    });

MapGitHubWebhooks() takes two optional parameters:

  • path. Defaults to /api/github/webhooks, the URL of the endpoint to use for GitHub.
  • secret. The secret you have configured in GitHub, if you have set this up.

Azure Functions

NOTE: Support is only provided for isolated process Azure Functions.

  1. dotnet add package Octokit.Webhooks.AzureFunctions

  2. Create a class that derives from WebhookEventProcessor and override any of the virtual methods to handle webhooks from GitHub. For example, to handle Pull Request webhooks:

    public sealed class MyWebhookEventProcessor : WebhookEventProcessor
    {
        protected override Task ProcessPullRequestWebhookAsync(WebhookHeaders headers, PullRequestEvent pullRequestEvent, PullRequestAction action) {
            ...
        }
    }
  3. Register your implementation of WebhookEventProcessor:

    .ConfigureServices(collection =>
    {
        ...
        collection.AddSingleton<WebhookEventProcessor, MyWebhookEventProcessor>();
        ...
    })
  4. Configure the webhook function:

    new HostBuilder()
    ...
    .ConfigureGitHubWebhooks()
    ...
    .Build();

ConfigureGitHubWebhooks() takes one optional parameter:

  • secret. The secret you have configured in GitHub, if you have set this up.

The function is available on the /api/github/webhooks endpoint.
