Hook3r

A tool that will help to automate your deployments.

The core concept is that you receive webhooks and use the data (body or query params) and pass it as Environment variables to a script.

JSON Query is being used in order to specify value.

It is possible to apply transformations to the received data through _ (lodash) functions

Install

Dependencies nodemon: Keeps node running at all time. bunyan: Logging platform.

npm install -g nodemon bunyan

Usage

The tool has been developed in a way that in can be installed on standalone mode (npm install -g) or it can be installed as a module. A docker image has been provided as well.

I want to receive the data from the body and have all query fields and from body parsed and pushed as environment variables for the process to run.

For example:

Script to run: print-body-variable.sh (Check the hooks folder) Secret: changeme!! (default) Hashed script name: c0X7svTBlOqkP2TPslstnvGCmsYt5c2d

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-X POST -d '{"name": "hook3r-tst"}' \
http://0.0.0.0:18080/c0X7svTBlOqkP2TPslstnvGCmsYt5c2dc0X7svTBlOqkP2TPslstnvGCmsYt5c2d

The output of the script file should be visible on the logs.

DEBUG: default/42997 on local: (module=hooker) Static ENV: A value manually set Name: hook3r-tst

Configuration

Security

It is absolutely necessary to point that we are not enforcing any type of check on what commands are being executed. That is why it's an absolute must to provide TLS

SSL Certs hook3r -c ./path/to/ssl/server.crt -k ./path/to/ssl/server.key

File name encryption hooke3r -s 'nonDefaultSecret' hash name_of_file_to_encrypt.sh

TO DO
