buildbulb

A server application to turn a LIFX light bulb into an extreme feedback device for multiple Jenkins projects.

Install

go get -u github.com/kju2/buildbulb

The buildbulb command will be available at ${GOPATH}/bin/.

Usage

./buildbulb --bulbName=BuildBulb --port=8080 --jobsFilePath=/path/to/load/and/persist/jobs --apiKey=<your-lifx-api-key>

All parameters are optional:

• Default bulbName: BuildBulb
• Default port: 8080
• If jobsFilePath isn't set, the job status is lost when the program closes.
• if you provide no LIFX API key, the application will try to find your lamp in the local network - otherwise the LIFX cloud services are used for controlling the light.

Jenkins Setup

• Install the [https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Notification+Plugin](Jenkins Notification Plugin).
• Configure Jenkins Notification Plugin to send the build status as JSON objects over HTTP the the server, e.g.
  • Format: JSON
  • Protocol: HTTP
  • Event: Finalized
  • URL: http://serverip:port/notify
• Build the job.

Dependencies

• Go 1.4.+
• LIFX bulb (http://www.lifx.com/)
