Installation
Install as a gem

git clone git@github.com:epinault/cruisecontrolrb-to-slack.git
cd cruisecontrolrb-to-slack
bundle install
rake build
gem install ./pkg/cruisecontrolrb-to-slack-0.2.0.gem

First you will need to create an incoming webhook from Slack integration. You will need to copy the token and the team name of that URL to setup the next part.

you .profile or /etc/profile.d/cruisecontrolrc-to-slack.sh (for all users)

CC_HOST=your_cruise_control_host # (e.g builder.cruisecontrol.com)
The following are optionals
Basic auth for your CruiseControlrb install (recommended):
CC_USERNAME=your_username
CC_PASSWORD=your_password
SLACK_USERNAME=your_username # Name to show for the message coming in [Default: cruisecontrol]
SLACK_CHANNEL=your_channel # the channel to receive notification [Default: #general] (include the '#')
POLLING_INTERVAL # polling interval in seconds. defaults to 5 seconds.
