Concourse Status Amplifier Build Status

Concourse Status Amplifier is a browser extension that replaces your Concourse pipeline background with a sweet graphic, depending on your build status.

Because you're probably looking at your Concourse pipeline from a mile away, and it's hard to see those little boxes flashing from your seat.

I want to install it. How do I install it?

Chrome web store

You can also install from source or unzip the latest published release.

Follow either Chrome's or Firefox's instructions for installing an extension from disk; you'll want to specify the dist/ directory as the location for the extension.

How do I use it?

Once you've installed the extension, it'll work out of the box for pipelines on either Concourse CI or Hush House. Just navigate to a pipeline and you should see a background image corresponding to the build status!

Support for other Concourse domains

If you have a pipeline that's not at either of those two domains, navigate to your pipeline in the browser, right-click on the icon for the extension and select "Enable Concourse Status Amplifier on this domain". The page will need to reload for the backgrounds to become visible.

Changing the backgrounds

You can change what background images are associated with which build statuses via the extension's Options. In Chrome, right-click on the icon for the extension and select "Options"; in Firefox, right-click on the icon for the extension and select "Manage Extension", then "Preferences". The new background images you choose will need a publicly accessible web address.

I like to start with the sourcecode. How do I build the source?

  1. Clone this repository
  2. yarn install --prod (leave off the --prod if you want to run tests and the like)
  3. yarn build; this should produce a dist/ directory with a manifest.json and other such goodies

Cool icon. Who made it?

That'd be Cynthia Conklin - she does good work!
