## Ikara - forget svn blame, this is Bamboo blame!

*Rule with an iron first - punish failure... automatically!*

### Summary

Ikara is a Bamboo build watcher from 4impact that punishes those

who break the build. Named after an Australian Aboriginal word for "throwing stick", it is based on retailiation for Jenkins,

but designed to work with Atlassian Bamboo.

Build breakages are detected through polling the failed-build rss feed. When a failed build is detected,

the Missle Launcher goes to work 'notifying' the offenders!

### Video of notification



### How to Use

  1.  Mount your Dream Cheeky Thunder USB Missile Launcher 

      in a central and fixed location.

  2.  Install libusb, PyUSB and feedparser for your operating system

  

  3.  Download the ikara.py 

      script onto the system connected to your missile launcher.

  4.  Modify the Bamboo configuration in the `ikara.py` script to define the Bamboo server details.

      

      ```python

BAMBOO_HOST      = '10.53.116.60'

BAMBOO_PORT      = '8085'

BAMBOO_USERNAME  = 'gbunney'

BAMBOO_PASSWORD  = 'gbunney'

```

  5.  Modify your `COMMAND_SETS` in the `ikara.py` script to define your targeting 

      commands for each one of your build-braking coders (their user ID as configured in Bamboo).

 

      You can test a set by calling ikara.py with the target name. e.g.:  

      ```python

python ikara.py "[developer's user name]"

```

  6.  Start listening for failed build events by running the command:

      ```python

python ikara.py monitor 

```

      Where `` is a comma separate list of plan keys for the builds you want to monitor.

      e.g. to monitor both TRUNK and PLUGINS:

      ```python

python ikara.py monitor TRUNK,PLUGINS

```

  7.  Sit back, relax and let Ikara do your dirty 'build-cop' work for you

  

### Other Uses

 

`ikara.py` also doubles as a command-line scripting API for the *Dream Cheeky 

USB Missile Launcher*.  You can invoke it to control the device from a script or 

command-line as follows:

      ikara.py zero

      ikara.py right 3000

      ikara.py up 700

      ikara.py fire 1
