Hawkins

A no muss, no fuss continuous integration software

Features

• No muss, no fuss deployment. nodejs is the only dependency.
• Realtime build status and colored runner output
• Simple, straightforward configuration. Just add a Hawkfile to your repository and push to GitHub.

Installation

• Create a new app at https://www.firebase.com/

• Clone this repository and deploy it to firebase:

  npm install -g firebase-tools
  git clone https://github.com/knoopx/hawkins.git
  cd hawkins
  firebase init
  firebase deploy
  

• Access the app at http://xxx.firebaseapp.com/

Worker Installation

• Go to your GitHub repository settings and add a push-only webhook pointing to https://xxx.firebaseio.com/pushes/.json

• Install the worker on as many machines as needed:

  sudo npm install -g coffee-script forever
  git clone https://github.com/knoopx/hawkins-worker.git
  cd hawkins-worker
  npm install
  

• Edit script/runner to fit your needs. By default it clones, caches and runs Hawkfile on your repository.

• Start the worker with:

  forever start -c coffee hawkins-worker.coffee --firebase https://xxx.firebaseio.com

• Add a Hawkfile with your app-specific test/build/deploy logic. To use whatever language you prefer just prepend a shebang.

• Push your repository
