Add client_payload

[jbuettnerbild]

Please add the client_payload to the dispatch event.
I think that is very simple. Everything to do is to add a new parameter here

trigger-workflow-and-wait/entrypoint.sh

Line 62 in 1b91bfd

--data "{\"event_type\": \"${event_type}\", \"client_payload\": {} }"

Docu: https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#create-a-repository-dispatch-event

I need the payload in a triggered workflow to receive more information of the called job.

Thanks for submitting this. I'll do some investigation today. I can't see your fork but I see the code above.

[jbuettnerbild]

here is my fork: https://github.com/jbuettnerbild/trigger-workflow-and-wait

i also have update the wait-for-mechanisms. instead of watching for job id i check the workflow id. that is necessary if the workflow contains of many jobs. otherwise if the fist job finish the result of the other jobs are no longer taken into account.
