I want to create a **Capability Webhook: Repository** using Groovy script.  
How can I do this using Groovy script?  
With script below I get a nullpointer exception at line (“capabilityRegistry.add(capabilityType, true, description, capabilityProps);”).  
Its also not clear too me how I can set the specific "Webhook " settings like repository name, eventType, url, secretKey?

Kind Regards,

Guy

//The script that I currently have  
import org.sonatype.nexus.capability.CapabilityReference;  
import org.sonatype.nexus.capability.CapabilityType;  
import org.sonatype.nexus.internal.capability.DefaultCapabilityReference;  
import org.sonatype.nexus.internal.capability.DefaultCapabilityRegistry;  
def capabilityRegistry = container.lookup(DefaultCapabilityRegistry.class.getName());  
def capabilityType = CapabilityType.capabilityType(‘webhook.repository’);  
if(capabilityType) {  
def capabilityProps = [‘names’: ‘myName’];  
def description = ‘component’;  
capabilityRegistry.add(capabilityType, true, description, capabilityProps);  
}
