Installation

1. Get an Asana access token

• To get an access token go to 'My Profile Settings' -> Apps -> 'Manage Developer Apps' -> 'Create new personal access token'.
• Make a note of the access token as you'll need it later on. <asana access token>

2. Get your Asana workspace id

• Make sure you're logged in to asana and go to https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/workspaces
• Make a note of the gid as you'll need it later on. <workspace id>

3. Get an Github access token

• To get an access token go to 'Settings' -> 'Developer Settings' -> 'Personal Access Token' -> 'Generate new token'.
• Under 'scopes' select 'Repo'.
• Make a note of the access token as you'll need it later on. <github access token>

4. Deploy the application

This project uses Zeit Now to deploy, which requires only a github account and gives you 2 million free invocations a month.

• Create a long, random password that we'll refer to as <webhook secret>
• Fork this repo and download it.
• Change the now.json config to choose a different alias as you won't be able to use the default. We'll refer to this URL as <url>
• Run npm init
• Run

  now \
    -e WEBHOOK_SECRET="<webhook secret>" \
    -e ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN="<asana access token from step 1>"\
    -e WORKSPACE_ID="<workspace id from step 2>"\
    -e GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN="<github access token from step 3>"

• Run now alias to set the non-changing URL that we can use in step 5.

5. Setup webhooks in Github

• For the github project you want to integrate, go to settings -> webhooks -> add a new webhook.
• Set the Payload URL to https://<url from step 3>/webhook.js
• Set the content type to application/json
• Set the secret to <webhook secret>
• Set the events to 'Let me select individual events' and check the box next to 'Pull Requests'
• Save.

Everything should work.
