So I was working on this, and I saw the _init_(self,config,request):, and in the app.py file I saw that request is from flask, so I was wondering is there any other framework going to be used instead of Flask, something like Nancy?

[thinkingserious]

Hello @pichardoSoftware,

Nancy looks solid, or you can keep even simpler.

I used the HttpListenerRequest and parsed the form data with an static method. But I stumbled on the email.message_from_string do you have any preferences on this or should I parse it manually?

[thinkingserious]

@pichardoSoftware,

I don't have any preference on how it's executed internally. The end result should be parsed content for the user. Thanks!

It looks like this one is open, since there has been no movement since last year!

Hello @thinkingserious, I would like to contribute on this issue/enhancement. If I understand the requirement correctly, we need to implement the inbound helper same as the one implemented here. (it should be a deployable webhook handler).

Looking at the python code it looks like an example than a helper (which can be reused in the SendGrid Client), what are your thoughts?

Can you please confirm if my understanding is correct?

[thinkingserious]

Hello @KoditkarVedant,

Your understanding is correct.

Additionally, I believe this should be implemented within a Docker container. And I don't think it should be packaged up as part of this library though. It should be a stand-alone service.

The StrongGrid SDK has an implementation for reference.

With Best Regards,

Elmer

Hello @thinkingserious,

Is there any repository you can point me to use to create branch from and PR against or should I create the repository myself?

Thanks,
Vedant

Hi @KoditkarVedant,

Please check this repo on October 1rst. At that time we will be thinking through how to handle these types of projects.

Currently, I'm not sure if we should just include the code in this repo or create a new repo.

With Best Regards,

Elmer

Hello @thinkingserious,

I have created a repository for Inbound Webhook Parser here. I'm currently updating it. How can I ask for review once I completed the implementation?

I also see that you have opened a new issue #766 which describes the same requirement.

Thanks,
Vedant

Hi @KoditkarVedant,

Just ping me when it's ready for review :)

My apologies, this issue should replace this one. I will mark it as work in progress for you.

Thanks!

With Best Regards,

Elmer
