Changes Client

Can be used to run arbitrary commands and report to changes or jenkins. You will need standard Go code setup to compile this.

Setup

mkdir -p go/src go/bin go/pkg
cd go
export GOPATH=`pwd`

go get github.com/dropbox/changes-client

Build

go install github.com/dropbox/changes-client/client

The binary will be installed at ./bin/client folder

Example Run

./bin/client --server "https://changes.build.itc.dropbox.com/api/0" --jobstep_id "bbc9a199-1b36-4f7d-9072-3974f32fdb1b"

NOTE: There is no / at the end of --server

Development

A Vagrant VM is included to make development easy:

$ vagrant up --provision

Jump into the VM with vagrant ssh, and then use the work alias to hop into the environment:

$ work
$ make dev
$ make test

Building package

We use fpm to build our deb file.

$ work
$ make

Thats it. A .deb file should be available as changes-client_$VERSION_amd64.deb

Note that the LXC you build against needs to match prod.
