Post to Slack every time there's a deploy #143

In the old mygov-account, Capistrano would post a message to Slack saying the branch and the server in use. It would actually post two messages -- the first that the deployment is starting and the second when it successfully completes.

Set up Capistrano to do this again.

... though we should make it so that

the webhook token isn't in the repo, but passed in some other way
deploy doesn't break if you don't have a token

polastre commented 10 years ago

Agreed with !1. Disagree with !2. Communication is key; we can add it to the deploy instructions in INSTALL.md

yozlet commented 10 years ago

!2 because of what happens if someone outside of 18F tries to clone and use MyUSA.

polastre commented 10 years ago

Not a case we're solving for right now.

@yozlet can SnapCI do this? Does SnapCI do both staging and production?

FYI, hoping to do this for everyone in Cloud Foundry. https://trello.com/c/jBTu5oHf/21-cf-notifications-in-slack

This is definitely doable with SnapCI - just need to

add a command to the Deploy pipeline that uses other/slack/slack_notifier.py (which is still in the repo after a previous attempt to do this)
store the Slack API key in an env variable
