Use CI/hooks to generate Multiversum JSON.

Webhooks are fun and this would automate some work of the "Multiversum Redaktion"

This should be possible with a little bit of effort.

Doesn't this belong to the Multiversum repo, rather than this one?
The scripting would likely be done here to import data from github, but should be triggered by a release hook in our Multiversum repository ...

[Paradyx]

Yes, or even better, the scripting is done on travis and wie give travis a push key for this repo.

[sudo42]

Sure, we could totally do that!
All required information should be extractable from the yaml file headers.

This would probably be a sub-task or follow-up of RPGLibrarium/multiversum#2

Publishing an edition of "Multiversum" automatically based on Github-releases raises the following questions, which have to be addressed first:

• How do we distinguish between a new release and a redacted version (e.g. hotfixes) ?
• How do we get structured meta data for releases.json from one repository to another? Do we checkout the repository and parse the YAML-Header?
• We would need a distinguished handling of post-processed PDF-files.

Since publishing a new edition is an editorial action, it would require human interaction one way or another. Maybe it is a better idea to extend RPGLibrarium/Multiversum by a new deployment script.
