name: frappe-webhook-manager description: Create webhook handlers for Frappe integrations. Use when implementing webhooks, event-driven integrations, or external system notifications.

Frappe Webhook Manager

Generate secure webhook receivers and senders for Frappe integrations with external systems.

When to Use This Skill

Claude should invoke this skill when:

• User wants to receive webhooks from external services
• User needs to send webhooks to external systems
• User mentions webhook, event-driven integration, or external notifications
• User wants to integrate payment gateways, APIs, or third-party services
• User needs to handle real-time events from external systems

Capabilities

1. Webhook Receiver

Secure Webhook Endpoint:

Copyimport frappe
import hmac
import hashlib

@frappe.whitelist(allow_guest=True)
def webhook_receiver():
    """Receive webhook from external service"""
    # Get signature
    signature = frappe.get_request_header('X-Webhook-Signature')

    # Verify signature
    secret = frappe.conf.get('webhook_secret')
    expected = hmac.new(
        secret.encode(),
        frappe.request.data,
        hashlib.sha256
    ).hexdigest()

    if not hmac.compare_digest(signature, expected):
        frappe.throw(_('Invalid signature'), frappe.AuthenticationError)

    # Parse payload
    payload = frappe.parse_json(frappe.request.data)

    # Process webhook
    event = payload.get('event')
    if event == 'payment.success':
        handle_payment_success(payload)
    elif event == 'customer.updated':
        handle_customer_update(payload)

    return {'status': 'success'}

2. Outgoing Webhook

Send Webhook on Document Event:

Copyclass SalesInvoice(Document):
    def on_submit(self):
        # Send webhook on submission
        send_webhook('invoice.submitted', self.as_dict())

def send_webhook(event, data):
    """Send webhook to external system"""
    webhook_url = frappe.conf.get('external_webhook_url')

    payload = {
        'event': event,
        'data': data,
        'timestamp': frappe.utils.now()
    }

    # Enqueue for async processing
    frappe.enqueue(
        '_send_webhook',
        webhook_url=webhook_url,
        payload=payload,
        queue='short'
    )

def _send_webhook(webhook_url, payload):
    """Send webhook with retry logic"""
    import requests

    for attempt in range(3):
        try:
            response = requests.post(
                webhook_url,
                json=payload,
                headers={'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
                timeout=10
            )

            if response.status_code == 200:
                return True
        except Exception as e:
            if attempt == 2:
                frappe.log_error(frappe.get_traceback(),
                    f"Webhook Failed: {webhook_url}")

    return False
