What it does
Like the webhook sink, but structured: fire a parameterised GraphQL mutation with the peepshow payload as variables. The mutation is configurable, so any schema is a fit.
When to reach for it
- Ingest into a Hasura / Postgraphile API over HTTPS
- Drop runs into a headless CMS (Contentful, Strapi, Hygraph) as entries
- Pipe into a custom Apollo server without writing a REST adapter
Install

Register the sink once — every run fires it afterward. Scope by--whenso it only runs for matching videos.

A sink is any executable that reads the--emit jsonpayload on stdin. Shell, Node, Python, Go — the spec's indocs/PLUGINS.md. Register persistent ones withpeepshow sinks add-cmd 'your-command'.
