Webhook.site

With Webhook.site, you can easily test HTTP webhooks and other types of HTTP requests.

Upon visiting the app, you get a random URL to send your requests and webhooks to, and they're all logged in the app – instantly. Check it out at https://webhook.site.

Requirements

PHP 7
Redis
Composer
Web server

Version 1.1 switched to using Redis for storage. If you want to use SQLite, you can use version 1.0.

Installation

Docker

The provided Docker Compose file sets up a complete environment that runs the Webhook.site image and all dependencies (Redis, Laravel Echo Server, etc.). Note that if running this in production, you should probably run a Redis server that persists data to disk. The Docker image is also not tuned for large amount of traffic.

Run docker-compose up
The app is available on http://127.0.0.1:8084.

Web Server

Run the following commands:
1. composer install
2. cp .env.example .env - adjust settings as needed
3. php artisan key:generate
Setup virtual host pointing to the /public folder. DigitalOcean has a guide on how to configure nginx.

Push functionality

You can use laravel-echo-server or Pusher to enable realtime updates. Take a look at the .env.example on how to configure it.

For laravel-echo-server, the app expects socket.io to be available at the /socket.io path. This can be done with nginx like so:

    location /socket.io {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:6001;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    }
