Closes #566

Summary of Changes

Adds native Rocket.Chat incoming webhook provider (
ocketchat) under pkg/providers/rocketchat.
Supports configurable webhook URL, custom username, and channel routing.
Automatically handles long message splitting up to Rocket.Chat message limits (4,000 characters).
Wired options into pkg/providers/providers.go alongside existing providers.
Added comprehensive unit tests in pkg/providers/rocketchat/rocketchat_test.go covering successful dispatch, webhook payload delivery, and message chunking.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Added Rocket.Chat as a notification destination, with support for sending formatted messages to configured channels.
- Configure deliveries with a webhook URL, channel, and username; Rocket.Chat-compatible URLs are also supported.
- Long messages are split into smaller chunks, with breaks placed at newlines or spaces where possible and without splitting multibyte characters.
Bug Fixes
- Delivery errors are reported when a message cannot be sent, while other configured destinations continue to be processed.

- Around line 131-132: Update Provider.Send to reject or normalize invalid UTF-8
before splitting, and ensure each chunking iteration consumes input so
splitIndex cannot reach zero while leaving the message unchanged. Preserve the
existing behavior for valid UTF-8 messages.

Walkthrough

Adds a Rocket.Chat provider that supports HTTP webhook and Shoutrrr delivery, splits long messages, and registers Rocket.Chat as a selectable provider.

Changes

Rocket.Chat delivery

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Implement Rocket.Chat delivery `pkg/providers/rocketchat/*`, `go.mod`	Adds provider options, destination filtering, message formatting and splitting, HTTP and Shoutrrr delivery, and tests for webhook requests and splitting.
Register Rocket.Chat provider `pkg/providers/providers.go`	Adds Rocket.Chat options to provider configuration and constructs the provider when no providers are specified or `rocketchat` is selected.

Suggested reviewers: mzack9999

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 04997

The Rocket.Chat provider can hang and exhaust memory if it is given a long message of invalid UTF-8 bytes with no spaces or newlines. Valid text is not affected. Add a forced split at the limit before merging. The test-handler assertion cleanup is minor.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #566 requires a Rocket.Chat provider that uses incoming webhooks and splits messages above the size limit. pkg/providers/rocketchat/rocketchat.go adds configurable webhook, channel, username, and format options. sendRocketChat posts JSON payloads and sends every chunk from splitMessage with a 4,000-byte limit. pkg/providers/providers.go registers the provider and supports provider selection. Tests cover webhook payloads, Rocket.Chat URL construction, splitting, and UTF-8 validity. No unmet coding requirement is shown.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changed files support #566. The provider implements Rocket.Chat delivery. The provider registration enables configuration and dispatch. The tests verify the new behavior. The testify dependency supports those tests. The Shoutrrr URL path remains within the Rocket.Chat provider and uses the same channel and username options. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 16.67% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 6 functions across 3 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Do not use require inside the HTTP handler.

If a request assertion fails, require calls FailNow from the handler goroutine. That stops the handler before it writes a response and can obscure the request failure with a client error. Use t.Errorf or nonfatal assertions, then return an HTTP error response when the handler cannot continue. Apply the same change to the body-read and JSON assertions on Lines 22 and 26. Go requires FailNow to run in the test’s own goroutine. (pkg.go.dev) Based on learnings: reserve require.* for the goroutine that owns the test.

Apply channel and username options to Shoutrrr delivery.

If RocketChatWebhookURL starts with rocketchat://, this branch sends only the URL and message. It ignores Channel and Username. A configuration that sets either option can therefore send to the URL’s destination or use its sender instead of the configured values. Pass those options through Shoutrrr’s Rocket.Chat parameters, or define and validate a URL-only contract for this branch. Shoutrrr documents both options. (containrrr.dev)

Ensure splitting advances on invalid UTF-8.

If Provider.Send receives strings.Repeat("\x80", 4001), this loop sets splitIndex to zero. The outer loop then appends empty chunks without consuming input, causing a hang and unbounded memory growth. The default message formatter preserves the input bytes. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Reject or normalize invalid UTF-8 before splitting, and ensure each iteration consumes input.
