app.post("/webhooks/xflux", rawBodyMiddleware, (req, res) => {
if (!verifyHmac(secret, timestamp, rawBody, signature)) {
return res.status(401).end();
}
const event = JSON.parse(rawBody);
if (event.event === "monitor.hit") {
discord.channels.send(`@${event.tweet.authorUsername}: ${event.tweet.text}`);
}
res.status(200).send("ok");
