A better Ghost to Discord webhook bridge

  

Ghost Webhook Proxy

I don't like how Ghost's implementation of Slack webhooks looks when used with Discord. So, I decided to make a lightweight proxy in Rust to make them look better.

• Uses ~10MB of RAM on average and has negligible CPU overhead
• Perfect for running alongside Ghost on a budget cloud instance

I'll dockerize it eventually.

Usage

$ ghwh-proxy [port]

Installing

1. Download the tool from releases and onto your server.
2. Install it somewhere useful and configure it to start automatically
   • cp ghwh-proxy /usr/local/bin/
   • I've included a systemd defintion you can use here. Just put in it in /lib/systemd/system/ and ensure it has permissions 0644.
   • Then you can use systemd enable and systemd start to start the service.
3. Generate a discord webhook that you'd like to post your messages to
   • e.g. https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1234567890/eyJtZXNzYWdlIjoiaGkifQ==
4. Make a new custom integration in Ghost that posts to your service when the "Post published" trigger occurs
   • The URL you will need to use is the Discord webhook, with https://discord.com/api/webhooks/ replaced with a link to the discord subdirectory of your proxy service.
   • i.e. http://127.0.0.1:7120/discord/1234567890/eyJtZXNzYWdlIjoiaGkifQ==
5. Profit?
