types](/v3/activity/events/types/), with the exception of [the original `push`
event](http://help.github.com/post-receive-hooks/).

A number of external services have already been integrated through the open source
[github-services](https://github.com/github/github-services) project, including the generic
[Web Service](https://github.com/github/github-services/blob/master/services/web.rb) service which can be used to
define your own custom hooks. All possible names for hooks, the events they support, and their configuration can be seen at [/hooks](https://api.github.com/hooks).

For a Hook to go through, the Hook needs to be configured to trigger for
an event, and the Service has to listen to it. The Services are all
part of the open source [github-services](https://github.com/github/github-services) project. Most of the Services only listen for `push` events. However, the generic [Web Service](https://github.com/github/github-services/blob/master/services/web.rb) listens for all events. Other services like the [IRC Service](https://github.com/github/github-services/blob/master/services/irc.rb) may only listen for `push`, `issues`, and `pull_request` events.
