bitbucket-build-status-hook v0.0.5

Bitbucket Build Status Hook

This Git post-checkout hook displays the latest Bitbucket Cloud build status for a commit when you check it out in your terminal. This allows you to quickly tell if your feature branch is failing, or whether it's safe to create a new branch from master!

Usage

This tool is most useful when symlinked as a post-commit hook, which runs every time you check out a branch or commit:

But you can also manually run bitbucket-build-status to check the build status of any branch, commit, or commit-ish, at any time.

Installation

1. Install Node.js
2. Run npm install -g bitbucket-build-status-hook
3. Navigate to the root of a Git repository that you've cloned from Bitbucket
4. Run ln -s /usr/local/bin/bitbucket-build-status .git/hooks/post-checkout
5. Run git checkout HEAD to test that the hook is properly installed

Credential management

The first time you upload a file you will be prompted for your Bitbucket email and password. These will be used to retrieve an OAuth refresh token which is stored in ~/.bitbucket-build-status and used for subsequent requests. Treat this token carefully as it can be used to read repository data on your behalf.

2FA/U2F

If you have 2FA enabled for your Bitbucket account, the client will be unable to use OAuth to authenticate you. Instead, you'll need to configure a Bitbucket App Password for the client to use. To do this:

1. create an App Password with Read access to your repositories
2. create a file at ~/.bitbucket-build-status-hook containing:

{
    "bitbucket.org": {
        "username": "your-username" // (*not* your email address),
        "password": "your-app-password"
    }
}

Bitbucket developers

By default, the API is assumed to live at api.$domain_of_repo_origin. This is not true for developing against staging.bb-inf.net or localhost. To remap the API, copy .bitbucket-build-status-hook.sample to ~/bitbucket-build-status-hook.

{	
	"staging.bb-inf.net": {
		"username": "kannonboy",
		"password": "password",
		"apiDomain": "api-staging.bb-inf.net"
	}
}

For localhost or other Bitbucket Cloud hosts, update staging.bb-inf.net and apiDomain as appropriate.
