events-backend-module-gerrit

Welcome to the events-backend-module-gerrit backend plugin!

This plugin is a module for the events-backend backend plugin and extends it with an GerritEventRouter.

The event router will subscribe to the topic gerrit and route the events to more concrete topics based on the value of the provided $.type payload field.

Examples:

$.type	topic
change-created	gerrit.change-created
change-merged	gerrit.change-merged

Please find all possible webhook event types at the official documentation.
