[FR]: support for personal webhooks and site-wide webhooks

Feature Request: support for personal webhooks and site-wide webhooks

Description

Since most users host Gitea as their personal git server and frontend, It would be great if a user can have a personal webhook that triggers on every repository that belongs to him/her, that is username/*. It is also useful to have site-wide webhooks that react on all repos for those who want to do some "logging to slack" kinda stuff.

Duplicate of #770

Hi @techknowlogick , I don't think it's a duplicate for #770
If I understand correctly, that issue allows to create a default set of webhooks when new repos are created, but that won't allow users to, let's say, create two webhooks, one to slack and one to discord, for all their repos. And since they are copied into new repos (#4299 ), batch changing them afterwards seems not possible.

@LER0ever thank you for clarifying. I've reopened this ticket.

I like this proposal too...

Same as above, but I would add that having a trigger for mentions would be pretty nice

I was going to open a duplicate of this.

Feature request: user level webhooks

Description

Currently webhooks can only be set on individual repository and organisation level, while I wish I would be able to setup webhooks on user level applying to all of my repositories without having to visit their settings separately.

My usecase is a private IRC channel where I have feeds related to me and a IRC bot with support for Gitea. Currently I have to visit all repositories separately to configure webhooks (it's not a big problem as I don't have that many yet), but being able to configure them at one place would be easier.

I think noticing suspicious activity on my Gitea account could also be easier if I was informed about it all automatically.

Related: #7523 which requests system level global webhooks (later I guess that is a duplicate of this one)

Would the best name for this be "notification webhooks"?

[lunny]

Notification is one of this, another maybe a backup, mirror or any other purpose.

My use case for this would be a "repo created" webhook that I could use to automatically configure some things (create jobs on my CI etc)

[Mikaela]

Another case for this would be Matrix webhooks being cumbersome to enable as they use the room ID

Matrix has room versions and to benefit from the features of the newer room versions a /upgraderoom is necessary. It then changes the room ID

And that means going through all webhooks and checking that they point to the new room instead of attempting to post into an old one

I remember a PR for system webhooks being merged.
I think that means this issue is closed, right?
