Caution

Buildbot no longer supports Python 2.7 on the Buildbot master.

2.5.14.1. BuildStatusGenerator

class buildbot.reporters.BuildStatusGenerator

This report generator sends a message when a build completes. In case a reporter is used to provide a live status notification for both build start and completion, BuildStartEndStatusGenerator is a better option.

The following parameters are supported:

subject

(string, optional).

Deprecated since Buildbot 3.5. Please use the subject argument of the message_formatter passed to the generator.

A string to be used as the subject line of the message. %(builder)s will be replaced with the name of the builder which provoked the message. %(result)s will be replaced with the name of the result of the build. %(title)s and %(projectName)s will be replaced with the title of the Buildbot instance.

mode

(list of strings or a string, optional). Defines the cases when a message should be sent. There are two strings which can be used as shortcuts instead of the full lists.

The possible shortcuts are:

all

Send message for all cases. Equivalent to ('change', 'failing', 'passing', 'problem', 'warnings', 'exception').

warnings

Equivalent to ('warnings', 'failing').

If the argument is list of strings, it must be a combination of:

cancelled

Send message about builds which were cancelled.

change

Send message about builds which change status.

failing

Send message about builds which fail.

passing

Send message about builds which succeed.

problem

Send message about a build which failed when the previous build has passed.

warnings

Send message about builds which generate warnings.

exception

Send message about builds which generate exceptions.

Defaults to ('failing', 'passing', 'warnings').

builders

(list of strings, optional). A list of builder names to serve build status information for. Defaults to None (all builds). Use either builders or tags, but not both.

tags

(list of strings, optional). A list of tag names to serve build status information for. Defaults to None (all tags). Use either builders or tags, but not both.

schedulers

(list of strings, optional). A list of scheduler names to serve build status information for. Defaults to None (all schedulers).

branches

(list of strings, optional). A list of branch names to serve build status information for. Defaults to None (all branches).

add_logs

(boolean or a list of strings, optional). If True, include all build logs as attachments to the messages. These can be quite large. This can also be set to a list of log names to send a subset of the logs. Defaults to False.

add_patch

(boolean, optional). If True, include the patch content if a patch was present. Patches are usually used on a Try server. Defaults to False.

report_new

(boolean, optional) Whether new builds will be reported in addition to finished builds. Defaults to False.

message_formatter

(optional, instance of reporters.MessageFormatter) This is an optional instance of the reporters.MessageFormatter class that can be used to generate a custom message.
