Tinder Continuous Integration to Campfire Script

November 30, 2007

Recently signal vs noise showcased how their continuous integration tool posts to campfire using the tinder api. Well I thought that it looked cool so have thrown together a quick and dirty ruby script to do it as well.

It will integrate with anything which has an RSS feed. Cruisecontrol.rb does and works nicely. Its a bit rough around the edges but works as is. Run it from the crontab and you are sorted.

Improvements welcome.

Here is the code:

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'rubygems'
require 'active_record'
require 'simple-rss'
require 'open-uri'
require 'tinder'
include Tinder

# Author: Alastair Brunton
# http://www.simplyexcited.co.uk
# Rss to Campfire

campfire_domain = 'simplyexcited'
campfire_email = 'cheer@cheerfactory.co.uk'
campfire_password = 'xxxx'
feeds = %w(http://feedserver/edflats.rss)


ActiveRecord::Base.logger = Logger.new(STDERR)
ActiveRecord::Base.colorize_logging = false

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
:adapter => "mysql",
:username => "username",
:password => "password",
:database => "ci_to_campfire"
)

# uncomment this section the first time to create the table

# ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
#    create_table :items do |table|
#        table.column :feed_identifier, :string
#        table.column :title, :string
#        table.column :link, :string
#        table.column :description, :text
#    end
# end

class Item < ActiveRecord::Base
  def to_s
    %(Theres been some action:\n
    #{self.title}\n\n
    #{self.description}
    )
  end
end


campfire = Campfire.new campfire_domain
campfire.login campfire_email, campfire_password
room = campfire.find_room_by_name('The Office')
feeds.each do |rss_url|
  rss_user_agent = "RSS to Campfire"

  rss_items = SimpleRSS.parse open(rss_url ,"User-Agent" => rss_user_agent)

  for item in rss_items.items

    Item.transaction do
      unless existing_item = Item.find(:all, :conditions => ["link=? AND feed_identifier=?", item.link, rss_url]).first
        new_item = Item.create(:title => item.title, :link => item.link, :description => item.description, :feed_identifier => rss_url)
        room.paste(new_item.to_s)
      end
    end
  end
end
room.leave
campfire.logout
