Sparky is a powerful pocket size task runner server in crontab style.
It's just a piece of cake how you can monitor VSTS builds using Sparky.
The task is to check that VSTS builds scheduled daily finish successfully.
Monitoring scenario
There are daily builds for production release candidates web application. The application source code is at VSTS git repository $git-repository and the build definition named as Web Build. We want to ensure the next day after a build happens that it succeeds.
Sparrowdo plugin called vsts-schedule-build-check does all the job:
$ nano sparrowfile #!perl6 my $git-repository = "http/git/repo"; git-scm $git-repository; task-run "WebApplication Build Check", "vsts-schedule-build-check", %( pattern => "Web Build", ); Monitoring scheduler
As builds get run daily, we run monitor daily as well, right after builds:
$ nano sparky.yaml crontab: "2 20 * * *" keep_builds: 10 keep_builds directive means no more 10 sparky reports are kept for this job, as we don't want to keep monitoring reports forever.
