GemCollector

Collect gems used by applications.

• Collect Gemfile.lock of the repository via GitHub webhook
• Show gem versions of the repository
• Show repositories using the gem
• Show "how up-to-date?" of the repository
• Create a issue to repositories using the gem

There're two ways to add GemCollector webhook to repository.

Visit https://github.com/:user/:repo/settings/hooks and add https://gem-collector.example.com/github-webhook with push event.

Visit https://gem-collector.example.com/repositories/new and enter repository location. It will automatically add ENV['WEBHOOK_URL'] with push event.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'gem_collector'

Put config/octokit.yml like below.

default: &default
  github.com:
    access_token: <%= ENV['GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN'] %>
    webhook_secret: <%= ENV['GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET'] %>
  github-enterprise.example.com:
    api_endpoint: https://github-enterprise.example.com/api/v3
    web_endpoint: https://github-enterprise.example.com
    access_token: <%= ENV['GHE_ACCESS_TOKEN'] %>

development:
  <<: *default

production:
  <<: *default

Configure database.yml. GemCollector requires PostgreSQL.

# config/database.yml
development:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: gem_collector_development

production:
  url: <%= ENV['DATABASE_URL'] %>

Configure ActiveJob adapter. We're using Barbeque, but other adapters should work.

# config/initializers/barbeque.rb
Rails.application.configure do
  config.active_job.queue_adapter = :barbeque
end

BarbequeClient.configure do |config|
  config.application = 'gem-collector'
  config.default_queue = 'default'
  config.endpoint =
    if Rails.env.production?
      ENV.fetch('BARBEQUE_ENDPOINT')
    else
      ENV.fetch('BARBEQUE_ENDPOINT', 'http://localhost:3003')
    end
end

• WEBHOOK_URL (required when /repositories/new is used)
  • URL to be added when the repository is registered from /repositories/new
  • Example: https://gem-collector.example.com/github-webhook
• DEFAULT_GITHUB_SITE (optional: default to github.com)
  • Placeholder site for /repositories/new
  • Example: github-enterprise.example.com
