Github Post Commit Hook Config

Hi,

I have a Ruby Github project on rubydoc.info which I'd like updated when I push to origin master. My project docs are located at:

https://www.rubydoc.info/github/michaeltelford/wgit/master

I've tried setting up a Webhook on Github using the URL: https://www.rubydoc.info/checkout

But Github's ping service shows the response as 200 OK with a body of INVALIDSCHEME and I can confirm that the docs have not synced with that of the origin master branch. I've tried using http in case that was the invalid scheme but it redirects back to https. I've also tried both JSON and application/x-www-form-urlencoded payloads to no avail.

Has anybody any idea's of the correct Webhook configuration needed to achieve this?

Thanks in advance,
Michael

   I've also read the article: https://rubydoc.tenderapp.com/kb/git-integration/adding-a-rubydocin...

   But this suggests an official Github service/app/integration, all of which are now deprecated on Github.

   So I've added a step to my CI workflow (rather than setting up a post commit hook on Github) which updates the rubydoc.info site by curling the server:

   $ curl 'https://www.rubydoc.info/checkout' \
     -H 'User-Agent: curl' \
     -H 'Accept: */*' \
     -H 'Accept-Language: en-GB,en;q=0.5' --compressed \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
     -H 'X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest' \
     -H 'Origin: https://www.rubydoc.info' \
     -H 'Connection: keep-alive' \
     -H 'Referer: https://www.rubydoc.info/find/github?q=wgit' \
     --data 'scheme=git&url=git%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmichaeltelford%2Fwgit&commit='
   

   You can do the same by replacing the wgit repo/gem name with your own.

   I still think that the original question/issue requires a solution however since you should be able to update the docs via a Github hook. If anybody knows the correct Github hook config, please leave a comment.
