Capistrano::Skype

Capistrano 3 tasks to notify deployments via skype. Currently works only on MacOS X via applescripts.

Wide parts of the code are based on Avner Cohens talking-capistrano.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano-skype'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install capistrano-skype

Set skype_chat_name in your deploy.rb to define in which chat the notifications should be posted. If you have a hosted repository like github, also set project_url to have links to the commit page in the notification.

Alternatively it is possible to set custom messages for the deploy:started, deploy:finished and deploy:rollback hooks. See example below.

set :skype_chat_name, "Project X"
set :project_url,     "https://github.com/company_x/project_y"
set :started_notification, "[#{fetch(:application)}]" \
                           "(#{fetch(:stage).upcase})" \
                           " Deploy started" \
                           " (F)"
set :finished_notification, -> { "Finished deploy of " \
                                 " https://github.com/company_x/project_y/commit/#{fetch(:current_revision)}" \
                                 " (#{fetch(:branch)})" \
                                 " (sun)"
                               }
