Use the GitHub status API (similar to Travis) #132

Open asmeurer opened 12 years ago

See https://github.com/blog/1227-commit-status-api.

We should definitely use it. However --- wouldn't it clash with Travis' results?

asmeurer commented 12 years ago

It says commits can have multiple statuses, so I think that means that you can just stack them. If not, we should definitely request that.

certik commented 12 years ago

Maybe we can just post the statuses and not comments?

asmeurer commented 12 years ago

Maybe. We'll see how it looks and what people think.

From their blog:

Statuses cannot be changed once added to a commit (they're completely immutable), but any number of statuses may be attached to a single commit. We only display the most recent status for any given commit in our UI.

So it's not clear how things work with multiple applications changing statuses.

So it sounds like the feature is somewhat crippled at the moment.
