How to configure a webhook with an url that contains a "!" like matrix room has ?

I am currently getting URL is invalid on the webui. (postal version 3.3.4)

You would have to modify this line I expect

postal/app/models/webhook.rb

Line 33 in fd3c7cc

validates :url, presence: true, format: { with: /\Ahttps?:\/\/[a-z0-9\-._?=&\/+:%@]+\z/i, allow_blank: true }

Ok.

About the idea of creating a new docker image, don't you think it is simple to directly patch the file inside the container instead of creating a new one. It feels easier to apply the change over upgrades ?

Unfortunately the way ruby on rails works means you have to restart the docker container to apply changes and restarting the docker container will remove any change you make back to the original values so you have to make your own docker image to properly test changes.

I am not sure about your statement.

I have just tested to make the change in file directly inside the container postal-smtp-1, file /opt/postal/app/app/models/webhook.rb, then restart postal (it did not recreate the container).

It seems to work as expected.

Ok, the matrix API, need a PUT request, not a POST. I guess another modification to postal to support that 😅

Well the change you made is still temporary so could go away at any moment so bear that in mind if you need to edit or add any more.

You would need to modify the worker and web docker containers, I don't think the smtp one is involved.
