buildmate v1.0.0

Build Mate

Build Mate. Given a list of file paths, invokes all build tasks that match any of the paths.

Prerequisite

• Node.js v6+

Usage

# Make your CI service to install Build Mate
$ npm install -g buildmate

# Pipe git diff output to Build Mate
$ git diff --name-only COMMIT1...COMMIT2 | buildmate

• buildmate.config.js

module.exports = {
  tasks: [
    // Failure of the notification doesn't abort the whole build
    {
      description: 'Notify build start',
      command: './notify-build-start.sh',
      continueOnFailure: true
    },

    // Regex path pattern.
    // Capturing parts of path with `()` and reference them in the command with BM_PATH_VAR_X env variables
    {
      path: /^(modules\/[^/]+)\//,        
      command: 'cd $BM_PATH_VAR_1 && npm run build'
    },

    // Glob path pattern
    {
      path: 'lib/**',
      command: './build.sh lib'
    }
  ]
}

If COMMIT1...COMMIT2 includes changes in the following files:

modules/module-A/src/index.js
modules/module-B/test/lib/bootstrap.js

Build Mate invokes following 3 commands in the order

./notify-build-start.sh
# Failure of this task command doesn't abort the build

cd modules/module-A && npm run build
# $BM_PATH_VAR_1 is expanded to modules/module-A

cd modules/module-B && npm run build
# $BM_PATH_VAR_1 is expanded to modules/module-B

Task properties

path

Optional. Path pattern to decide if task should be executed (and capture path vars). path can be an regular expression or glob. Omitting path will always execute the task.

description

Optional. Task description printed out at the beginning of task execution.

command

Required. Command to execute. Path variables captured in path matching phase can be referenced as environment variables like BM_PATH_VAR_N where N is a sequential number starts from 1.

continueOnFailure

Optional. Specify true if you want to continue the build on the task failure.
