<p>Probably you can do the opposite, make github call the docker server.
Use self hosted github runners.
Configure and run the github agent on your server.
An then create an action to do what you want on the docker server.
That action can be auto fired for example with a commit or a merge,</p>

I am trying to figure out how to get my Ubuntu docker server to react to code commits on a git-repo and build and deploy an image based on that.

I have a git repo in Azure Devops that contains an Angular project (with a working dockerfile).

I found that [Docker does have automatic builds](https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/builds/) but it's a paid feature.

As far as I can see, you can only use Webhook on an actual repository that will call some service on your docker host. Docker host must be aware somehow.

That is how to set up webhook.

So flow is something like:

1. create microservice on docker host
2. create webhook on docker Azure repo
3. 2 URL will be 1 endpoint

1 can be run as docker user, so you have permission to execute docker build and so on.

I would do it this way.
