Talking::Capistrano

Capisrano task to notify start|end|erros of a capistrano deploy execution Current Notification methods supported: *. Skype Group - via some topic *. speaker voice - via OSX's say command

• Current code is based on the say command in OSX and the 'skypemac' gem, espeak can also be used, however, I didn't bother yet. PR always welcome

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'talking-capistrano'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install talking-capistrano

Usage

Simply add:

require 'talking-capistrano'

In your Capfile, enjoy

To get the Skype Notification to kick in, simply add, in the deploy.rb file (or the specific environment, eg. production.rb):

set :skype_topic, "Production Team"

This will kick a search on the Skype chats with this as the topic, and will send a mesage to that group. If topic not found, it will simply be ignored.

Configuration

Setting up the skype group for the notification:

set :skype_topic, "Production Team"

Setting a null say command:

set :say_command, "echo"
