Description

A Puppet report handler for sending notifications of Puppet runs to HipChat.

TravisCI status

Requirements

• ruby >= 1.9.3 Note: PE puppet-master 3.x and PE/opensource puppetserver bundled versions of ruby should meet required version.
• hipchat >= 0.12.0
• puppet

For Cent/RHEL 6 users running open source puppet-master 3.x, puppet utilizes the system ruby as such the latest repository provided version of ruby is 1.8.7, this means use of RVM or some other method to install a modern version of ruby will be required.

For the room in which you want to receive puppet notifications, add a new BYO Integration. This will return an example url: https://example.hipchat.com/v2/room/123456789/notification?auth_token=WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S https://example.hipchat.com is the server (you can use on premise hipchat servers as well) v2 is the api version 123456789 is the room WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S is the api_key

Installation

Installation utilizing puppet

class { 'puppet_hipchat':
  server         => 'https://example.hipchat.com',
  api_version    => 'v2',
  api_key        => 'WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S',
  room           => '123456789',
  install_hc_gem => true,
  provider       => 'puppetserver_gem',
}

With puppetboard link:

class { 'puppet_hipchat':
  server         => 'https://example.hipchat.com',
  api_version    => 'v2',
  api_key        => 'WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S',
  room           => '123456789',
  install_hc_gem => true,
  provider       => 'puppetserver_gem',
  puppetboard    => 'https://puppetboard.test.local',
}

With dashboard link:

class { 'puppet_hipchat':
  server         => 'https://example.hipchat.com',
  api_version    => 'v2',
  api_key        => 'WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S',
  room           => '123456789',
  install_hc_gem => true,
  provider       => 'puppetserver_gem',
  dashboard      => 'https://dashboard.test.local',
}

If you need to use a proxy to reach the hipchat server:

class { 'puppet_hipchat':
  server         => 'https://example.hipchat.com',
  api_version    => 'v2',
  api_key        => 'WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S',
  room           => '123456789',
  install_hc_gem => true,
  provider       => 'puppetserver_gem',
  proxy          => 'http://proxy.test.local:8080',
}

Where provider is the following:

• puppetserver_gem used for opensource and pe puppetserver requires puppetlabs-pe_gem
• pe_gem used for PE puppet master 3.x requires puppetlabs-pe_gem
• gem used for opensource puppet-master

Lastly Enable pluginsync and reports on your master and clients in puppet.conf

    [master]
    report = true
    reports = hipchat
    pluginsync = true
    [agent]
    report = true
    pluginsync = true

Manual Installation

1. Install the hipchat gem on your Puppet server

NOTE FOR PE/Open Source puppetserver package 2.0.0+ USERS: You must install the hipchat gem using the puppetserver gem utility:

    $ /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppetserver gem install hipchat

NOTE FOR PE puppet-master USERS: You must install the hipchat gem using the puppet-bundled gem library:

    $ /opt/puppet/bin/gem install hipchat

NOTE FOR Open Source puppet-master USERS: You must install the hipchat gem using the system gem utility:

    $ sudo gem install hipchat

2. Install puppet-hipchat as a module in your Puppet master's module path.

3. Update the hipchat_server, hipchat_api_version, hipchat_api, hipchat_room variables in the hipchat.yaml file with your Hipchat connection details and copy the file to /etc/puppet/ or for PE/OpenSource puppetserver /etc/puppetlabs/puppet.

   ---
   :hipchat_server: 'https://test.hipchat.com'
   :hipchat_api_version: 'v2',
   :hipchat_api: 'WzP0dc4oEESuSmF2WJT23GtL5mili9uXof73M48S'
   :hipchat_room: '123456789'
   

4. Enable pluginsync and reports on your master and clients in puppet.conf

   [master]
   report = true
   reports = hipchat
   pluginsync = true
   [agent]
   report = true
   pluginsync = true
   

5. Run the Puppet client and sync the report as a plugin

Usage

• An option to notify users in the room hipchat_notify defaults to false.

• You can also change the default notification color from yellow to red, green, purple or random.

• The hipchat_statuses should be an array of statuses to send notifications for and defaults to 'failed'. Specify 'all' to receive notifications from all Puppet runs.

• In order to send notifications through proxy server set hipchat_proxy to your HTTP proxy URL using this format:

  'http://username:password@proxy_host:proxy_port'

• If you use Puppetboard set hipchat_puppetboard to the base URL of your Puppetboard installation, e.g. 'http://puppetboard.example.com' and a link to the node's latest report will be send with the message to HipChat. An example file is included.

  NOTE FOR PUPPETBOARD 0.1.2+ USERS: if you are using environments other than production you will need to either configure puppetboard default environment to * or set hipchat_server to append /%2A, ex: :hipchat_server: http://hipchat.test.local/%2A otherwise you will receive a not found error for any nodes in environments other than production.

• To temporarily disable HipChat notifications add a file named hipchat_disabled in the same path as hipchat.yaml. Removing it will re-enable notifications.

  $ touch /etc/puppet/hipchat_disabled
