# daily-travis

A dead simple heroku ready travis daily sceduler

## :warning: Note 2020-09-04

[Travis CI](https://travis-ci.com/) has now long been supporting its own version of [Cron Jobs](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/cron-jobs/). There is no use for this tool anymore.

## :warning: Note 2015-09-04

https://nightli.es/ is an independent service that the travis team [suggests using](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/582). I switched to this one myself, and am not intending to maintain daily-travis from now on.

## Usage

* Clone this repo locally

```shell

git clone https://github.com/philou/daily-travis.git

```

* If you don't have it yet, install the [heroku toolbelt](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/quickstart)

* Create an heroku app to deploy to

```shell

heroku apps:create -daily-travis

```

* Deploy to heroku

```shell

git push heroku master

```

* Generate a github token

Explanations are [here](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use). Default authorizations are fine.

Note the token somewhere.

* Add the parameters to your heroku app

```shell

heroku config:add TRAVIS_REPOSITORY=/

heroku config:add GITHUB_TOKEN=

```

* Test that the latest build is restarted by manually running

```shell

heroku run rake build

```

* Add the scheduler to your heroku app

```shell

heroku addons:add scheduler:standard

heroku addons:open scheduler

```

* Add the task ```rake build``` to your heroku scheduler

## Alternatives

* https://nightli.es/ is an independent service that the travis team [suggests using](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/582)

* The [travis-cron](http://traviscron.pythonanywhere.com/) web app and [git repo](https://github.com/FiloSottile/travis-cron). Which is manually moderated.
