Quickmock

Mock a GitHub push webhook

A GET mock shaped like a GitHub push event, with one commit on refs/heads/main.

Returns a ready-made event — feed it straight into your own handler.

Response payload

{
  "ref": "refs/heads/main",
  "before": "a10867b14bb761a232cd80139fbd4c0d33264240",
  "after": "b7e1a2c3d4f5a6b7c8d9e0f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9",
  "repository": {
    "full_name": "octocat/quickmock-demo"
  },
  "pusher": {
    "name": "octocat"
  },
  "commits": [
    {
      "id": "b7e1a2c3d4f5a6b7c8d9e0f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9",
      "message": "fix: handle empty payload",
      "timestamp": "2024-05-01T12:00:00Z"
    }
  ]
}

Fields worth knowing

Field What it means
ref The branch that was pushed to, e.g. refs/heads/main.
after The commit SHA after the push — later GitHub API calls reference it.
repository.full_name The repository name as owner/repo; edit it to match your test repo.
pusher.name The GitHub username who pushed.
commits The commits included in this push — trimmed to one here.

Create the mock

curl -X POST https://quickmock.dev/api/mocks \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "method": "GET",
  "response_status": 200,
  "content_type": "application/json",
  "response_body": "{\"ref\":\"refs/heads/main\",\"before\":\"a10867b14bb761a232cd80139fbd4c0d33264240\",\"after\":\"b7e1a2c3d4f5a6b7c8d9e0f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9\",\"repository\":{\"full_name\":\"octocat/quickmock-demo\"},\"pusher\":{\"name\":\"octocat\"},\"commits\":[{\"id\":\"b7e1a2c3d4f5a6b7c8d9e0f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9\",\"message\":\"fix: handle empty payload\",\"timestamp\":\"2024-05-01T12:00:00Z\"}]}"
}'

Call it

curl https://quickmock.dev/m/<slug>

What you get

GET /m/<slug> -> 200 a GitHub-style push event
one commit on refs/heads/main

How this differs from the real thing

This is a single static commit rather than the full field set a real push event carries — no X-Hub-Signature-256 header, no sender or head_commit, no compare URL.
