# Gollum Page Watcher GitHub Action

 [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/benmatselby/gollum-page-watcher-action)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/benmatselby/gollum-page-watcher-action)

A GitHub Action to watch for GitHub Wiki Page changes, and then notify a Slack channel

## Secrets

- `SLACK_WEBHOOK`: The Slack Webhook URL required to post a message to your workspace.

## Environment Variables

- `SLACK_USERNAME`: The Slack username if you want to define it, otherwise it will be what you have defined in Slack.

- `SLACK_CHANNEL`: The Slack channel if you want to define it, otherwise it will be what you have defined in Slack.

- `PAGES_TO_WATCH`: A regex of page titles you want to watch, in order to get a notification. If not defined, all pages are watched.

## Example

```shell

...

- name: Wiki Watcher

  uses: benmatselby/gollum-page-watcher-action@v1

  env:

    SLACK_WEBHOOK: ${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK }}

    SLACK_CHANNEL: #random

    SLACK_USERNAME: Gollum

    PAGES_TO_WATCH: (^Home$)|(^Meeting minutes)

...

```

This will result in a match on "Home", and all pages with a title starting with "Meeting minutes".

## Testing

To test this, you can run it from your command line with the following setup

```shell

GITHUB_EVENT_PATH=example-payloads/valid-payload.json \

GITHUB_EVENT_NAME=gollum \

SLACK_WEBHOOK=[your-slack-webhook-url] \

SLACK_CHANNEL=[your-slack-channel] \

DEBUG=true \

go run main.go

```

If `DEBUG` is defined, it will not post to Slack, but rather output the webhook message in your terminal.
