Capistrano

Capfile

require 'hipchat/capistrano'

deploy.rb

# Required
set :hipchat_token, "<your token>"
set :hipchat_room_name, "Your room" # If you pass an array such as ["room_a", "room_b"] you can send announcements to multiple rooms.
# Optional
set :hipchat_enabled, true # set to false to prevent any messages from being sent
set :hipchat_announce, false # notify users
set :hipchat_color, 'yellow' #normal message color
set :hipchat_success_color, 'green' #finished deployment message color
set :hipchat_failed_color, 'red' #cancelled deployment message color
set :hipchat_message_format, 'html' # Sets the deployment message format, see https://www.hipchat.com/docs/api/method/rooms/message
set :hipchat_options, {
  :api_version  => "v2" # Set "v2" to send messages with API v2
}

Who did it?

To determine the user that is currently running the deploy, the capistrano tasks will look for the following:

  1. The $HIPCHAT_USER environment variable
  2. The hipchat_human capistrano var.
  3. The git user.name var.
  4. The $USER environment variable.

Commit log notification (only for Capistrano 2)

Send commit log with deploy notification. We currently support git and svn.

set :hipchat_commit_log, true
# Optional
set :hipchat_commit_log_format, ":time :user\n:message\n"
set :hipchat_commit_log_time_format, "%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S"
set :hipchat_commit_log_message_format, "^PROJECT-\d+" # extracts ticket number from message

Rails 3 Rake Task

Send a message using a rake task:

rake hipchat:send["hello world"]

or

rake hipchat:send MESSAGE="hello world"

Options like the room, API token, user name and notification flag can be set in YAML.

RAILS_ROOT/config/hipchat.yml:

token: "<your token>"
room: ["Room name(s) or id(s)"] # this is an array
user: "Your name" # Default to `whoami`
notify: true # Defaults to false
api_version: "v2" # optional, defaults to v2
color: "yellow"

Engine Yard

Use a deploy hook to send messages from Engine Yard’s Cloud platform.

RAILS_ROOT/deploy/after_restart.rb:

on_app_master do
  message  = "Deploying revision #{config.active_revision} to #{config.environment_name}"
  message += " (with migrations)" if config.migrate?
  message += "."

  # Send a message via rake task assuming a hipchat.yml in your config like above
  run "cd #{config.release_path} && bundle exec rake hipchat:send MESSAGE='#{message}'"
end

Chef Handler

APIv1 ONLY, use APIv1 Key
NOTE: APIv2 required for HipChat Server & HipChat Data Center

Report on Chef runs.

Within a Recipe:

include_recipe 'chef_handler'

gem_package 'hipchat'

chef_handler 'HipChat::NotifyRoom' do
  action :enable
  arguments ['API_KEY', 'HIPCHAT_ROOM']
  source File.join(Gem.all_load_paths.grep(/hipchat/).first,
                   'hipchat', 'chef.rb')
end

With client.rb:

   require 'hipchat/chef'
   hipchat_handler = HipChat::NotifyRoom.new("API_KEY", "HIPCHAT_ROOM")
   exception_handlers << hipchat_handler

With HipChat Data Center and HipChat Server

Add an “options” hash to set your URL:

  • arguments [‘API_KEY’, ‘HIPCHAT_ROOM’, options={hipchat_options: {server_url: “https://hipchat.example.com”}}]
  • hipchat_handler = HipChat::NotifyRoom.new(“API_KEY”, “HIPCHAT_ROOM”, options={hipchat_options: {server_url: “https://hipchat.example.com”}})
