How to use with runit.

Manual Build

As this project is built in go you can build it in multiple platforms with:

$ go get -d github.com/ghophp/buildbot-dashboard
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ghophp/buildbot-dashboard
$ make

This will fetch the code and generate the assets as binary, then you can go install or go build, and then run:

$ buildbot-dashboard --buildbot="http://10.0.0.1/"

If you have $GOPATH/bin at your $PATH then you can run from everywhere the command.

You can also run with the go run with:

$ go run *.go -builbot="http://10.0.0.1/"

Features

• Non-reload monitoring
• Enhanced UI with better visualization of the builders
• Easy usage with single command
• Filter options allow you to just show what matters
• Save arrangement of the dashboard
• Zoom compliant layout

Preview

As we use gridster and a structured style, if your buildbot has a lot of builders, you can take advantage of the browser zoom to reduce the size of the blocks and so, use more space to move your grid.

Martini

As this project is build over martini please consider setting this env variables when deploy:

export PORT=3000
export MARTINI_ENV=production

Clean Cache

By default the project will cache the builders to avoid the delay of reloading it everytime. If you insert a new builder or remove one, you can force the reload of the cache in the UI, there is a button on left side. This button will force the builders to be reloaded and the localStorage will also be cleaned.
