ShipIt

ship-it utils to deploy using CI

Installation

1. Add ship-it to your Gemfile and bundle install:

   gem 'ship_it', git: 'https://github.com/seekingalpha/ship_it.git'

2. Add the needed binstubs:

   bundle binstubs ship-it unship-it

3. Require ship_it/tasks in your Rakefile

4. Implement bin/test-ci-online and bin/queue-ship-it. This two have to exist and be executable. bin/test-ci-online should succeed in case the connection to your CI server is working. bin/queue-ship-it is the script that will send the two files created by ship-it to the CI server. Complete examples based on Jenkins are located under the examples directory.

5. Create a staging_history branch. This is the branch ship-it will be using to record the staging branch list history.

   rake shipit:history_branch

   Pass [branch_name] if you want to use a different branch as the target for ship-it.

Usage
