Usage

Command Line Interface

quickci offers two main CLI commands:

• status shows the current status of your projects on one or more CI services;

• config creates or updates the configuration file needed.

quickci status

This command retrieves the status of your projects on one or more CI services (master branch by default).

If issued as quickci status, will retrieve these information for all the CI services for which an authentication token is available in the config file:

$ quickci status

CircleCI (master branch)
    project1 -> success
    project2 -> failed
Travis CI (master branch)
    project1 -> passed
    project2 -> passed
AppVeyor (master branch)
    project1 -> passed
Buddy (master branch)
    project2 -> enqueued
Drone CI (master branch)
    project1 -> success

If you want to monitor one specific branch of your repositories (suppose you have many repos with a dedicated dev branch for development), you can easily add the --branch <branch_name> option:

$ quickci status --branch dev

If the --branch option is not provided, the build status of the master branch will be retrieved by default.

If you want to check one specific repository, you can provide the --repo <reponame> option:

$ quickci status --repo my_repo

It is obviously possible to combine the --repo and --branch options to check a given branch of a specific repository.

It is also possible to check a specific service using subcommands of quickci status:

$ quickci status travis
$ quickci status circle
$ quickci status appveyor
$ quickci status buddy
$ quickci status drone

These subcommands also accept the --branch and --repo options:

$ quickci status travis --branch master
$ quickci status circle --branch feature1 --repo my_repo
$ quickci status drone --branch new_feature --repo my_other_repo

If you have not set up a config file, you can still retrieve information from CI services providing their authentication token right into the command:

$ quickci status travis --token <TRAVIS_CI_TOKEN>

quickci config

This command allows to create a config file for quickci, or update it if a config file is already available.

The create command will create a brand new config file, located in ~/.config/quickci/tokens.json:

$ quickci config create

If a config file is already present at that location, you will be prompted to confirm your desire to clear it and create a new one. New config files fill the authentication tokens with a temporary string, which you will need to update with proper tokens.

The update command allows to update one of the authentication tokens in the existing config file:

$ quickci config update <CIservice> <token>

The show command will show all the stored authentication tokens:

$ quickci config show
