Zulip Capistrano Integration

Create a bot for Capistrano. Make sure that you select Incoming webhook as the Bot type.

Download and install our Python bindings and example scripts on the system where the Capistrano integration script will be run from.

You can now send Zulip messages by calling the zulip-send utility from your deploy.rb config file.

Here's some example code for sending a Zulip notification when a deployment has completed:

after 'deploy', 'notify:humbug'

namespace :notify do
  desc "Post a message to Zulip after deploy"
  task :humbug do
    run_locally "echo 'I just deployed to #{stage}! :tada:' | zulip-send \
    --user capistrano-bot@chat.zulip.org --api-key a0b1c2d3e4f5a6b7c8d9e0f1a2b3c4d5 \
    --site=https://chat.zulip.org \
    --stream commits --subject deployments || true"
  end
end

Use your bot's email address and API key for --user and --api-key respectively.
