Requirements

• Capistrano >= 3

• A Slack account

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'slackistrano', require: false

And then execute:

$ bundle

Configuration

Set up an "Incoming WebHooks" integration in Slack. Make a note of the token as you'll need it later.

Require the library in your application's Capfile:

require 'slackistrano'

Set your team and token in your application's config/deploy.rb:

set :slack_team, "supremegolf"
set :slack_token, "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Optionally, override the other slack settings:

set :slack_icon_url,     ->{ "http://gravatar.com/avatar/885e1c523b7975c4003de162d8ee8fee?r=g&s=40" }
set :slack_channel,      ->{ "#general" }
set :slack_username,     ->{ "Slackistrano" }

Test your setup by running:

$ cap production slack:deploy:starting
$ cap production slack:deploy:finished

Usage

Deploy your application like normal and you should see messages in the channel you specified.

TODO

• Add tests.
• Notify about incorrect configuration settings.
