koukku

GitHub Webhook server. Listens for updates from GitHub for projects, and runs update scripts against the changes.

What can I use koukku for?

The primary goal of this project is to provide a simple continuous integration/delivery platform for GitHub projects. For example, koukku can be used for deploying the latest version of a website which has source code hosted at GitHub.

What exactly does it do?

  1. Koukku listens for updates from GitHub by providing a webhook access.
  2. It triggers an update for a received event, if a match is found in configuration.
  3. It updates the matching project's local repository with changes from remote repository.
  4. It runs user configured update script in the local repository directory.

Installation

You can install koukku using Rust's Cargo:

$ cargo install koukku

Usage

USAGE:
        koukku [FLAGS] --config <FILE>

FLAGS:
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

OPTIONS:
    -c, --config <FILE>         Configuration file location

Configuration

The configuration follows the INI-format. The top level keys contain common configurations, and the sections contain project specific configurations. Here's an example configuration:

location = /path/to/projects
gitpath = /usr/bin/git
server = 0.0.0.0:3000
threads = 2

[myproject]
repo = githubname/myrepo
key = foobar
branch = master
command = /path/to/somescript.sh

Project layout

Project repositories should be placed to where location points to. The repositories in this directory are identified using the section ID. For example, in the above configuration example the project would be found from /path/to/projects/myproject.

Common configurations

Key Description
server Server address to run on. Default: localhost:8888
threads Number of threads to run the web server on. Default: relative to cores
location The directory where repositories are located
gitpath Path to git binary. Default: /usr/bin/git

Project configurations

Key Description
repo GitHub repository in format username/repository
key Webhook secret key
branch Git branch to track. Default: master
command The command to run on webhook trigger

Creating a webhook in GitHub

See GitHub's Creating Webhooks guide. Currently, koukku only supports JSON payloads.

Logging

Koukku uses Rust's log and env_logger for logging. Change the RUST_LOG environment to tune logging. Recommended setup:

RUST_LOG="error,koukku=info"

systemd

Here's an example unit file for running koukku using systemd:

[Unit]
Description=Github Webhook service
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/koukku --config /path/to/conf.ini
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/workingdir
User=koukku
Group=koukku
PIDFile=/path/to/koukku.pid
Environment=RUST_LOG=error,koukku=info

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

Change the paths, the user, and the group accordingly, and place the file to /etc/systemd/system/koukku.service. See to systemd documentation for more information.

Dependencies

For running koukku, you need to install OpenSSL libraries. See rust-openssl and your operating system's guides for more information.

For building koukku, you need to install Rust compiler and tools.

Building

Use Rust's cargo to build the project:

$ cargo build

The build will create a debug executable into path target/debug/koukku. You can create an optimized executable using --release flag.

$ cargo build --release

The executable can be found from path target/release/koukku. You can also run the executable directly using cargo run:

$ cargo run -- --config myconf.ini --server localhost:3030

Tests can be run using cargo test:

$ cargo test

See Cargo guide for more information on using Cargo.
