Publish deploy notifications to Slack - for Capistrano v3.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'capistrano-slackify', require: false
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install capistrano-slackify
Require the gem in your Capfile:
require 'capistrano/slackify'
And then set the required variables in config/deploy.rb:
set :slack_url, 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/your/webhook/url'
Ensure that you have enabled the incoming webhooks integration - copy/paste the webhook url provided in the setup instructions.
The task will run automatically on deploy. Alternatively, you can notify of a deploy starting manually by using:
bundle exec cap production slack:notify_started
Or to notify of a finished deploy:
bundle exec cap production slack:notify_finished
By default, this will publish something along the lines of:
Revision 64a3c1de of my_app deployed to production by seenmyfate in 333 seconds.
If a deploy has failed, the following message will be published by default:
production deploy of my_app with revision/branch 64a3c1de failed
As with the other tasks, it is also possible to notify failures manually:
bundle exec cap production slack:notify_failed
Any of the defaults can be over-ridden in config/deploy.rb:
set :slack_channel, ['#devops', '#other-channel']
set :slack_username, 'Deploybot'
set :slack_emoji, ':trollface:'
set :slack_user, ENV['GIT_AUTHOR_NAME']
set :slack_fields, ['status', 'stage', 'branch', 'revision', 'hosts']
set :slack_mrkdwn_in, ['pretext', 'text', 'fields']
set :slack_hosts, -> { release_roles(:all).map(&:hostname).join("\n") }
set :slack_text, -> {
elapsed = Integer(fetch(:time_finished) - fetch(:time_started))
"Revision #{fetch(:current_revision, fetch(:branch))} of " \
"#{fetch(:application)} deployed to #{fetch(:stage)} by #{fetch(:slack_user)} " \
"in #{elapsed} seconds."
}
set :slack_deploy_starting_text, -> {
"#{fetch(:stage)} deploy starting with revision/branch #{fetch(:current_revision, fetch(:branch))} for #{fetch(:application)}"
}
set :slack_deploy_failed_text, -> {
"#{fetch(:stage)} deploy of #{fetch(:application)} with revision/branch #{fetch(:current_revision, fetch(:branch))} failed"
}
set :slack_deploy_finished_color, 'good'
set :slack_deploy_failed_color, 'danger'
set :slack_notify_events, [:started, :finished, :failed]
You can setup custom fields by defining a mapping for how to display them in slack:
set :slack_fields, ['status', 'environment', 'docker_image']
# You could also add your custom mappings to the defaults with:
# set :slack_fields, fetch(:slack_fields).push('environment', 'docker_image')
set :slack_custom_field_mapping, -> {
{
'environment' => {
title: 'Environment',
value: -> {
if fetch(:stage) == :production
'production'
else
"staging-#{fetch(:staging_name)}"
end
},
short: true,
},
'docker_image' => {
title: 'Docker image',
value: fetch(:docker_image),
short: false,
},
}
}
To configure the way slack parses your message (see 'Parsing Modes' at https://api.slack.com/docs/formatting) use the :slack_parse setting:
set :slack_parse, 'none' # available options: 'none', 'full'
