Woodpecker CI Configuration Service example

This repository provides a very simplistic example of how to set up an external configuration service for Woodpecker CI The external service gets a HTTP POST request with information about the repo, current build, and the configs that would normally be used. It can then decide to acnowledge the current configs (By returning HTTP 204), or overriding the configurations and returning new ones in the response

Usecases for this system are:

  • Centralized configuration for multiple repositories at once
  • Preprocessing steps in the pipeline like templating, macros or conversion from different pipeline formats to woodpeckers format

This service is written in go, to run it first copy the config example: cp .env.example .env Adjust the secret and add a filtering regex. The repositories that have a name match the filtering regex will receive the config from central-pipeline-config.yaml, while all other repositories will continue using their original configuration.

Then run using go run ..

Make sure to configure your woodpecker instance with the correct endpoint and configure the same secret. See Woodpeckers documentation here

eg:

# Server
# ...
WOODPECKER_CONFIG_SERVICE_ENDPOINT=http://<service>:8000/ciconfig
WOODPECKER_CONFIG_SERVICE_SECRET=mysecretsigningkey
