Actuator

More documentation can be found at https://ninech.github.io/actuator.

actuator (noun ac·tu·a·tor \ˈak-chə-ˌwā-tər, -shə-\ ) a mechanical device for moving or controlling something

Actuator keeps an eye on your Github pull-requests and automatically spawns staging environments in Openshift.

It's in a very early stage of development. Some people would say it's just a prototype. So please come back later if you're interested in using Actuator.

Development

Call the hook

There is an example event payload in examples/pull-request-event-opened.json. You can use that to test against the event handler API.

Because the event handler validates the HTTP request, there is a wrapper script to calculate the signature from the secret and call the hook:

examples/send-event.rb -f examples/pull-request-event-opened.json -s supersecret

examples/send-event.rb -f examples/pull-request-event-closed.json -s supersecret

Test template

Import the sample template into your Openshift project:

oc create -f examples/test-template.yml

Whenever this template is applied there will be a new ConfigMap with a partly random name actuator-test-* in your project. These ConfigMaps can be deleted with the following command:

oc delete cm -l "actuator.nine.ch/create-reason"
