Capistrano::Campout

Capistrano::Campout is a gem extension to capistrano to post/speak messages and paste logs from a capistrano deployment to a campfire room. Settings are configurable in a "config/campout.yml" and/or "config/campout.local.yml" file. ERB templates are supported for messages and can use all of the capistrano settings.

Capistrano::Campout will a speak messages at pre-deployment and post-deployment success or failure. Event sounds are also supported.

Design goals

Capistrano::Campout is inspired by and borrows concepts (and in some cases code) from two projects: capistrano-mountaintop and capfire.

I created my own instead of forking either for the following reasons

  • I initially wanted to use Tinder (Capfire uses broach). I later went with Broach due to ActiveSupport (which Tinder requires) conflicts with Capistrano.
  • I wanted more customization with regard to messages than capfire provided.
  • I liked EngineYard's logger implementation much better than capistrano-log_with_awesome (which capistrano-mountaintop depends on) - and liked it better integrated into campout's gem itself.
  • I wanted configuration-file based settings that I can separate into shared (checked into git) and local (git ignored) files
  • I wanted room to expand for my team's needs for utilities for git and github inspection

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano-campout'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install capistrano-campout

Setup

You can generate a configuration by running

campout generate_config

This will prompt you for your campfire configuration settings and create config/campout.yml and config/campout.local.yml files for you, adding config/campout.local.yml to your .gitignore file (if present) and adding a require 'capistrano-campout' to your config/deploy.rb file.

Manual Setup

Alternatively add a:

require "capistrano-campout"  

to your capistrano deploy.rb and create a config/campout.yml and/or a config/campout.local.yml with your campfire settings (required)

campfire:
    domain: your_campfire_domain
    room: room_id_to_post_to
    token: your_campfire_api_token

"config/campout.yml" is meant to be a pre-project file and can contain global settings for everyone. Don't put the api token in a campout.yml file that's part of a public git repository

"config/campout.local.yml" is meant as a local/private configuration file - I'd recommend adding the file to the .gitignore

Settings

Run the 'campout generate_config' command - and the config/campout.yml file will have a list of all the known settings.

Otherwise, use the source, Luke.

Known Limitations

There isn't much error checking on the campfire connection. And there's no tests. The latter might be a feature.
