Multiple webhooks

[cveneziani]

Hi,

Is there a way to declare multiple webhooks without having to declare a custom notifier?

Thanks,
Cecile

@cveneziani short answer, no. but it can be easily done in different ways

1 - Implementing a MultipleNotifier notifier, which accepts multiple notifiers via configuration hash. This solution turns possible every notifier to have one or more distinct configurations.

Whatever::Application.config.middleware.use ExceptionNotification::Rack,
  :multiple => {
    :notifiers => [
       {:notifier => :webhook, :options => {  :url => 'http://domain.com:5555/hubot/path'  } }
       {:notifier => :webhook, :options => {  :url => 'http://gitlab.domain.com/issues/create'  } }
    ]
  }

2 - Changing the Webhook notifier to accept an array via configuration.

Whatever::Application.config.middleware.use ExceptionNotification::Rack,
  :webhook => {
    :hooks => [
      { :url => 'http://domain.com:5555/hubot/path' },
      { :url => 'http://gitlab.domain.com/issues/create' } 
    ]
  }

3 - Change the ExceptionNotifier class to accept multiple declarations of the same notifier, making this a builtin feature.

Whatever::Application.config.middleware.use ExceptionNotification::Rack,
  :email => {
    :email_prefix => "[Whatever] ",
    :sender_address => %{"notifier" <[email protected]>},
    :exception_recipients => %w{[email protected]}
  },
  :webhook => [
    { :url => 'http://domain.com:5555/hubot/path' },
    { :url => 'http://gitlab.domain.com/issues/create' } 
  ]

Thanks @jweslley. The third approach seems interesting.
