Web hooks in practice //something ... hook_trigger(‘viewpage’); //more stuff.. async async while(1) { while($queued = $q->get(‘async-queue’)) { post_to_url($queued[‘url’],$queued[‘postargs’]); } }

Web hooks in practice Example hooked events • login/logout • edit a page • revert a page • delete a page • comment on a page • tag/untag pages • join/unjoin wiki • return_after_absence • view_for_ﬁrst_time
