📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

VictorOps configuration and validation move into notify/victorops. Receiver configuration and notifier code use the package-local type. Shared VictorOps definitions and tests are removed, and equivalent package tests are added.

Changes

VictorOps configuration extraction

Layer / File(s)	Summary
VictorOps configuration contract notify/victorops/config.go, notify/victorops/config_test.go	Adds package-local defaults, configuration fields, YAML unmarshaling, validation, and tests for credentials and custom fields.
VictorOps notifier integration notify/victorops/victorops.go, notify/victorops/victorops_test.go	Updates the notifier and its tests to use victorops.VictorOpsConfig.
Shared receiver configuration wiring config/config.go, config/notifiers.go, config/notifiers_test.go	Updates Receiver.VictorOpsConfigs to use the package-local type and removes the former shared VictorOps definition and tests.

Preserve the former exported type alias if config.VictorOpsConfig is supported externally. The change removes that exported identifier from the config package and can break downstream Go code that uses it. Retain type VictorOpsConfig = victorops.VictorOpsConfig in config when backward compatibility is required.
