@jkitsao/dhcli

DevHooks CLI for forwarding and testing webhooks locally — without setting up ngrok.

A simple, developer-friendly CLI tool for simulating and forwarding webhooks to your local server. Great for testing M-Pesa, Paystack, or any other webhook-based integrations.

✨ Features

• 🔁 Forward webhook events to local/staging endpoints
• 📡 Listen for real-time events from the DevHooks dashboard
• 🔧 Designed for mobile money, payments, and API testing
• 🛠 Works out of the box — no tunnels or ngrok needed

📦 Installation

npm install -g @jkitsao/dhcli

Or use with `npx`:

npx @jkitsao/dhcli

🚀 Usage

Forward a webhook to your local endpoint

dhcli forward <ref> --target http://localhost:3000/api/webhook

• ref: The unique webhook reference from your DevHooks dashboard

• --target: Your local or remote URL to forward to

Example:

dhcli forward abc123 --target http://localhost:4000/api/payment

2. Real-Time Events (Preview)

When connected to the DevHooks backend, dhcli listens to real-time webhook events triggered via the dashboard or simulator. These events will be forwarded to the specified target automatically.

This requires:

• The webhook ref to be active in the DevHooks dashboard

• A listener CLI session running

3. CLI Help

To view available commands and options:

bash

CopyEdit

dhcli --help

4. Advanced (Coming Soon)

• Simulate traffic: Trigger 50+ webhook hits to test performance

• Trigger flows: Chain webhook → email → SMS

• Mock runners: Use predefined M-Pesa and Paystack events
