What is a Source?

A Source is a designated ingestion channel in Bunnylynk. Each source is identified by a unique Slug and assigned an ingestion URL:

https://gateway.bunnylynk.com/h/:slug

For example, a source with slug stripe-checkout receives webhooks at:

https://gateway.bunnylynk.com/h/stripe-checkout

Source Properties

Property	Type	Description
`id`	`string`	Unique internal identifier (e.g. `src_01JMABCDEF`).
`name`	`string`	Human-readable label (e.g. "Stripe Production").
`slug`	`string`	URL-safe slug used in the webhook URL path.
`provider`	`string`	Optional preset (e.g. `stripe`, `shopify`, `github`, `custom`).
`secret`	`string`	Cryptographic secret for verifying webhook signatures.
`disabled`	`boolean`	When true, rejects incoming webhooks with HTTP 404/410.

Supported Providers & Automatic Parsing

When creating a Source, specifying the provider enables built-in signature verification and event extraction:

Stripe: Verifies Stripe-Signature header with tolerance clock skew checks.
Shopify: Verifies X-Shopify-Hmac-Sha256 header.
GitHub: Verifies X-Hub-Signature-256 HMAC-SHA256 signature.
Custom / Generic: Custom HMAC secret or raw forwarding without verification.
