Webhooks Input Plugin

This is a Telegraf service plugin that start an http server and register multiple webhook listeners.

telegraf config -input-filter webhooks -output-filter influxdb > config.conf.new

Change the config file to point to the InfluxDB server you are using and adjust the settings to match your environment. Once that is complete:

cp config.conf.new /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf
sudo service telegraf start

Adding new webhooks plugin

1. Add your webhook plugin inside the webhooks folder
2. Your plugin must implement the Webhook interface
3. Import your plugin in the webhooks.go file and add it to the Webhooks struct

Both Github and Rollbar are good example to follow.
