Why

• For fun
• Tutorial link: A quick Travis CI (Continuous Integration) Tutorial for Node.js developers (on github)

Issues

• If I'm using const and jshint for testing at the same time

  see https://stackoverflow.com/a/37472928
  basically, you just need to add a .jshintrc file, then add { "esversion": 6 }

Actual notes

• Do notice that
  • travis-ci.com and travis-ci.org are not the same thing (private | public)
  • so, for some specific stuff you might need to do in a bit different way, e.g. travis encrypt when adding env vars
• Three ways to add Environment Variables (dangerous -> kinda safe -> safe)
  1. whatever: directly add those to .travis.yml
  2. travis web interface: something like https://travis-ci.com/USER/REPO_NAME/settings
  3. encrypt the keys by yourself (I havn't try this in my local machine)

  # 1. you need to get 'ruby' installed in your machine
  # 2. install a library for encrypting the keys
  gem install travis
  # 3.1 encrypt it -> then add to 'secure: GENERATED_STUFF'
  travis encrypt SOMEVAR="secretvalue" --add env.global
  # 3.2 encrypt it -> then add to 'secure: GENERATED_STUFF'
  travis login --pro
  travis encrypt SOMEVAR="secretvalue" --add
