Automatic upstream dependency testing

   :alt: Build status

Strazar (from Bulgarian for sentinel) helps you pro-actively monitor for new
versions of upstream packages. Once a package is found it is added to your test
matrix to ensure your software works with the latest upstream dependencies!

Strazar works by updating the ``.travis.yml`` environment and uses the GitHub
API to pull and push changes automatically to your repositories. The actual
environment setup and testing is performed by the CI server, while Strazar
acts as a trigger for new builds!

Changelog
=========

* 0.2.5 (2017-01-11)

  * Don't crash if Strazar is monitoring a package which
    is not currently in ``.travis.yml``. This can happen when your software
    switches dependencies, e.g. from ``boto`` to ``boto3`` but you still
    like to keep the monitoring configuration for the previous dependency.

* 0.2.4 (2017-01-05)

  * Use the new package name and version in commit log;

  * Fix a bug where Strazar will not properly update the test matrix when
    there are packages that conflict between each other. The following syntax
    is now supported::

        env:
          - '_BOTO=2.45.0 _DJANGO=1.9 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'

          - '_BOTO3=1.4.3 _DJANGO=1.9 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'

    When ``Django 1.10`` is found the matrix is updated as follows::

        env:
          - '_BOTO=2.45.0 _DJANGO=1.9 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'
          - '_BOTO=2.45.0 _DJANGO=1.10 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'

          - '_BOTO3=1.4.3 _DJANGO=1.9 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'
          - '_BOTO3=1.4.3 _DJANGO=1.10 _DJANGO_STORAGES=1.5.1'

* 0.2.3 (2016-07-28)

  * Add logging to indicate progress and status

* 0.2.2 (2016-05-16)

  * Handle non-ascii characters in data streams

* 0.2.1 (2016-05-15)

  * Initial release

Installation
============

To install::

    pip install strazar


Supported upstream package repositories
=======================================

Currently only `PyPI <http://pypi.python.org>`_ is supported. We have plans for
adding `RubyGems <http://rubygems.org>`_ and `NPM <https://www.npmjs.com/>`_
very soon! Others will come later.


Supported CI environments
=========================

At the moment only `Travis-CI <https://travis-ci.org>`_ is supported!


Supported source code repositories
==================================

At the moment only `GitHub <https://github.com>`_ is supported as we use their
API, not git directly!

* ``GITHUB_TOKEN`` environment variable allows authenticated API access. This
  token needs the ``public_repo`` or ``repo`` permission.


Prepare .travis.yml
===================

Strazar uses the variable format `_PACKAGE_NAME` where the variable name starts
with an under-score followed by the capitalized package name. All hyphens are
converted to under-scores as well. We advise that your ``.travis.yml`` files
follow the same convention. This is how Strazar's  own ``.travis.yml`` looks
like::

    language: python
    python:
      - 2.7
      - 3.5
    install:
      - pip install coverage flake8 mock PyYAML==$_PYYAML PyGithub==$_PYGITHUB
    script:
      - ./test.sh
    env:
      - _PYGITHUB=1.26.0 _PYYAML=3.11


Monitor PyPI
============

PyPI doesn't provide web-hooks so we examine the RSS feed for packages of
interest based on configuration settings. To start monitoring PyPI execute
the following code from a cron job (at `Mr. Senko <http://MrSenko.com>`_
we do it every hour)::

    import os
    import strazar

    os.environ['GITHUB_TOKEN'] = 'xxxxxxxxx'
    config = {
        "PyYAML" : [
            {
                'cb' : strazar.update_github,
                'args': {
                    'GITHUB_REPO' : 'MrSenko/strazar',
                    'GITHUB_BRANCH' : 'master',
                    'GITHUB_FILE' : '.travis.yml'
                }
            },
        ],
    }

    strazar.monitor_pypi_rss(config)

The ``config`` dict uses package names as 1st level keys. If you are interested
in a particular package add it here. All other packages detected from the RSS
feed will be ignored. If your project depends on multiple packages you have to
list all of them as 1st level keys in ``config`` and duplicate the key values.

The key value is a list of call-back methods and arguments to execute once a
new package has been published online. If two or more repositories depend on
the same package then add them as values to this list.

The ``strazar.update_github`` call-back knows how to commit to your source repo
which will automatically trigger a new CI build.
