Backstop::Deploys

An extension to backstop to allow submission to Librato Metrics

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'backstop-deploys'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install backstop-deploys

Usage

This is generally meant to be coupled with your backstop Rack app, but doesn't necessarily have to be. An example config.ru:

$:.unshift File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/lib'
require "backstop/web"
require "backstop-deploys"

run Rack::Cascade.new [Backstop::Application, Backstop::Deploys::Web]

It assumes the pressence of LIBRATO_EMAIL and LIBRATO_KEY in ENV.

Example curl interaction:

$ curl -X PUT localhost:5000/deploys/my_app.v73.1350581323 -d 'source=production&end_time=1350581423'

The resource id is broken down into component.version.epoch_time. source is required in the body and represents the environment that is reporting the deploy, end_time is optional.
