Webhook Triggers

Configure webhooks to trigger CI/CD pipelines when specific events occur in your Dits repository:

# Configure webhook for push events
dits webhook add \
  --event push \
  --url https://api.github.com/repos/owner/repo/dispatches \
  --secret $WEBHOOK_SECRET

# List configured webhooks
dits webhook list

# Test webhook delivery
dits webhook test <webhook-id>

Best Practices

Performance
  • Use sparse checkout for large repos
  • Cache Dits data between builds
  • Use parallel chunk downloads
  • Set appropriate cache sizes
Security
  • Store tokens in secrets manager
  • Use short-lived tokens when possible
  • Limit token scopes to required permissions
  • Enable audit logging
