How do you use this container?
After receiving a webhook, I want some action to occur, in my case I want to send an http request somewhere.
What language can I write some code do do an action after receiving the webhook?
I've tried building a go script in it, and it runs, except that when I include a net/http library it won't work.
Is the only option to use sh?
Or is this container supposed to be used for something else, like install python on it and then use a request library to make a request after receiving the webhook?

Thanks for the insight.

Please update the readme and add
version: "3"

When deploying my hooks.yml file, it cannot find the scripts I made for each of my deployments. Is this a known issue?

Hi, this is a nice image, i would love to use it instead of hard coding webhook directly on server's OS, BUT there is a problem you didn't mentioned in README and I suppose it makes the image at least not useful in many cases and at worst not useful at all for some situations.

This was discussed in more detail here for example:

Short: If you want to execute shell scripts from the inside of a container, you need to use hacks or even worse hacks (this is not designed this way, but the opposite), and after doing so, encounter problems like container restart, server restart which may (or may not) mess up things, in sense of messing those hacks. I didn't find yet any clean and STABLE solution to this problem (disclaimer: didn't spend much time trying), you probably don't want to run your scripts inside of the container with Webhook (which actually happens by reasonable default after using this image), but directly in OS, and this is different matter.

To sum up (it's late nigh here in PL :D, hope above text is understandable), if you are aware of any clean and stable solution, please share, cheers ;)
