Suggestion: "Webhook"-Module

[chland]

I've got a little idea for a module that might be kinda useful :)

The Webhook module would be super-simple module. Its only purpose is to send HTTP-Requests to a user-defined URL using a user-defined query-string.

Basically, you would have a simple config-screen where you can input an URL and 2-3 other inputs.

First thing you would do is to define an URL like

https://my.server.ip/position.php?account=%account%?map=%map%&x=%x%&y=%y%&z=%z%

Stuff like %map% %x% %y% etc. are placeholders that get replaced with the values from the Mumble-API.

Then you would have a combo-box where you select the "update-method":

1) Update at a given interval (if you select this you can input an interval in milliseconds)
2) Update on map-changes (only updates once if the map changes)
3) Update based on distance (updates if the player moves a certain distance)

That's pretty much it.

A module like this could be useful for services like gw2efficency or guild-sites to display certain things (for example a list of all achivements you can do on this particular map, etc.)

I really like this idea! Okay, I'll take a look a little bit later this week and see how simple it'd be to add. 👍

Another trigger could be reactive, trigger everytime one of the parameters changes (though this should be taken with care with parameters like position)

Should now be (or soon be) covered by https://new.blishhud.com/modules/?module=estreya.bh.webhookUpdater, which is now available via prerelease. 😄
