opbeat-release-tracker

A simple module to track a release on Opbeat.

Please note that release tracking is built in to the official Opbeat node.js module.

Installation

npm install opbeat-release-tracker

Usage

The module exposes a single init function:

var trackRelease = require('opbeat-release-tracker')({ ... })

The init function takes an optional options hash with the following properties:

• appId - The Opbeat app id (falls back to the OPBEAT_APP_ID environment variable)
• organizationId - The Opbeat organization id (falls back to the OPBEAT_ORGANIZATION_ID environment variable)
• secretToken - The Opbeat secret token (falls back to the OPBEAT_SECRET_ID environment variable)
• auto - If true (default) opbeat-release-tracker will try to auto-detect the git rev and/or branch if not specifically given. Set to false to disable this behavior
• cwd - Directory where to auto-detect git rev or branch if those are not provided when tracking a release (falls back to process.cwd())
• userAgent - Set if you wish to override the default HTTP User-Agent (this makes sense if you use the opbeat-release-tracker module as a submodule to another module)

The init function returns a release tracker function which can be called to track a specific release:

trackRelease([options][, callback])

The options object is optional but can be used to specify the following properties:

• rev - Git commit hash of the release
• branch - Git branch of the deployed release
• cwd - Directory where to auto-detect git rev or branch if those are not provided (will override the cwd given upon initialization and fall back to process.cwd() if neither is provided)
• status - Either completed (default) or machine-completed
• machine - Name of the machine where the release was deployed (only valid if status is set to machine-completed)

The callback function is optional and will be called once the release have been tracked. If an error occurred while tracking the release the callback will be called with the Error object as the first argument. Note that if an error occurres and no callback have been provided the error is not thrown.
