TeamCity Raspberry Pi Notifications

A simple TeamCity notification client for the Raspberry PI. Provides support for notifications via the Speaker and lighting control.

Requirement

You will need to copy settings.sample.json to a new file called "settings.json" and update it to include your TeamCity Specific information.

Concept

The core concept behind the project is based around Teams, where each team has a single owner, and a set of projects that they are working on (that needs to be monitored). Each team is also associated to a "Good Light" and a "Bad Light". Good light is triggered with the build is good, and the bad light when the build is broken.

Right now, for audio notifications it leverages a module "node-tts-google", which relies on node-speaker; which has issues running on Windows (basically stalls); so we disable audio notifications when this app is run on windows.

Also, if you want the light automation portion to be working, this must be run on a Rasberry Pi.

See https://npmjs.org/package/pi-gpio for light <-> pin setup for each project.

Getting started

• Copy settings.sample.json to a new file called settings.json
• Update settings.json to be appropriate for your TeamCity installation and team/project structure.
• Plugin your lights (or relay switches) to the GPIO pins as described here: https://npmjs.org/package/pi-gpio
• Update settings.json to indicate the good/bad pins for each "goodLight"/"badLight"
• Deploy script to a Raspberry Pi
• ssh into your pi
• run:
• npm install
• git clone git://github.com/quick2wire/quick2wire-gpio-admin.git
• cd quick2wire-gpio-admin
• make
• sudo make install
• sudo adduser $USER gpio
• Finally execute our script by:
• sudo node client.js
