Intro

self-build is a simple build server currently focused on simplicity and easy setup, its main goal is to enable a continues build by just running:

$ lein self-build jobs.edn

Right from within a lein project thus saving us from the need to setup Jenkins or other more complex solutions.

self-build will support only Git as SCM.

Usage

Add to your project file under plugins section:

Define jobs edn file:

{
 :jobs [
    {:name "play"
     :repo "git@github.com:narkisr/play.git" 
     :target "/tmp/play" 
     :steps [{:cmd "foo" :args ["help"]}]
     :poll 3000
    }

    {:name "celestial"
     :clear-merge-fail true
     :repo "git@github.com:celestial-ops/celestial-core.git" 
     :branch "es"
     :target "/tmp/celestial" 
     :steps [{:cmd "lein" :args ["runtest"] :timeout 180}]
     :poll 3000
    }
  ]
 
}

Now configure under either ~/.self-build.edn or /etc/self-build/self-build.edn:

{
  :ctx {
    :ssh-key "/home/foo/.ssh/id_rsa"
    :smtp {
      :host "smtp.gmail.com"
      :user "foo"
      :pass ""
      :ssl :yes!!!11
     } 
    :mail {
      :from "foo@gmail.com" :to "youremail@gmail.com"
    }
  }
}

Now run builds (possibly in a tmux session):

$ lein self-build jobs.edn
2014-Feb-28 21:06:18 +0200 nucleus INFO [self-build.core] - Setting up job play
2014-Feb-28 21:06:18 +0200 nucleus INFO [self-build.core] - Cloned git@github.com:narkisr/play.git
2014-Feb-28 21:06:25 +0200 nucleus INFO [self-build.core] - Starting to build play
