Summary

Convoy has developed a set of CLI tools to simplify the debugging of webhook configurations, addressing the complexities often associated with integrating multiple tools such as proxies and HTTP dumps. These tools facilitate testing event delivery and enable users to debug event headers and payloads efficiently. Key components include a separate stream server that communicates via web sockets, allowing for real-time event monitoring and delivery to registered devices and endpoints. Users can use the stream client to register applications, listen to real-time events, and replay missed events. The system requires a CLI key for accessing and authenticating with the stream server, and it includes functionalities such as tailing events and fetching past events using the listen command. Convoy's solution aims to streamline the debugging process, enhancing user experience and efficiency in managing webhooks.
