circleci-artifacts-redirector

GitHub app to add a GitHub status link to a CircleCI artifact.

WARNING: THIS IS DEPRECATED

A more future-proof version of this is available as a GitHub Action:

https://github.com/larsoner/circleci-artifacts-redirector-action

To use this application, add a .circleci/artifact_path file whose only contents are the artifact path. This is typically whatever follows the CircleCI artifact root path, for example 0/test_artifacts/root_artifact.md.

Currently has (known) serious limitations:

• Tests do not work properly (haven't gotten around to fixing them)
• Only allows redirecting to a single file that must be configured ahead of time as a file (cannot be changed within the CircleCI run)
• Only pays attention to CircleCI jobs named build_docs, build, or doc

Eventually this stuff can all probably be fixed by a bit of work and addition of customization options. For example parsing a YAML file or something else (setup.cfg) to get the path would be a good start rather than just using the content of .circleci/artifact_path as the filename to use.

This app was developed using PROBOT and is deployed via Heroku.
