Tutter is a robot that can trigger customizable actions based on Github [events]((https://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/)(push, pull_request, release, issue, ..)

gem install tutter

Place configuration file in /etc/tutter.yaml, example can be found in the conf/ directory.

• name - username/project_name
• access_token - Github access token (can be generated here)
• github_site - github website
• github_api_endpoint - github api endpoint
• hook_secret - (Optional) validate hook data based on known secret(more).
• action - action you wish to use for the project
• action_settings - whatever settings your action require

Hooks can be configured just to send the event that you're interested in. The important part is that Payload URL points to the webserver running Tutter

Example on how the thanks action looks like. Tutter listens for issue events and posts back with a greeting.

A simple action for getting started is the built in thanks action. More advanced usage can be seen in the tutter-sppuppet action that allows non-collaborators to merge pull requests
