The purpose of this project is to setup Github to push notifications to a monitoring server whenever a developer pushes changes to a repository using Github's webhooks. Webhooks allow you to send HTTP POST requests to a specified URL in response to certain events, such as code pushes.
docker run -d -p 15672:15672 -p 5672:5672 --name rabbitmq rabbitmq:3-managementThis server first verifies the payload's signature to ensure the request is from GitHub. Then handles incoming webhook requests. It reads the request body, verifies the signature, parses the JSON payload, and sends it to RabbitMQ.
