Installation

Setting Up a Chat

1. Create a bot by contacting @BotFather.
2. Create a new channel or group.
3. If you just created a group, for a better experience, convert it to a supergroup by going to Settings > Chat history for new members, and set it to visible. You can later undo this.
4. Get its ID.

Obtaining the Webhook URL

After you have a bot and a chat ready, your webhook URL will look like this:

https://ghb.deno.dev/?token=your_bot_token&chatId=your_chat_id

If the chat is a forum, you can specify a topic ID using messageThreadId:

https://ghb.deno.dev/?token=your_bot_token&chatId=your_chat_id&messageThreadId=topicId

If you use a self-hosted version, you might need to replace https://ghb.deno.dev/ with something else.

Configuring GitHub

A Single Repository

1. Open the settings of your repository.
2. Go to the Webhooks tab.
3. Click Add webhook.
4. Set the Payload URL to the URL you obtained previously.
5. Set the Content type to application/json.
6. Choose Send me everything.
7. Click Add webhook.

A Whole Organization

If your repositories are under a GitHub organization, we recommend configuring the whole organization once, so you won't have to configure each repository individually. The steps are the same as configuring the webhook for a single repository, except you open your organization's settings instead.

1. Open the settings of your organization.
2. Go to the Webhooks tab.
3. Click Add webhook.
4. Set the Payload URL to the URL you obtained previously.
5. Set the Content type to application/json.
6. Choose Send me everything.
7. Click Add webhook.
