Configuration Elements¶
Element | Description | Type | Required | Default | Version |
baseDirectory | The directory to run the Rake process in. If relative, is a subdirectory of the Project Working Directory. | String | No | Project Working Directory | 1.4 |
buildArgs | Any arguments to pass through to Rake (e.g to specify build properties). | String | No | None | 1.4 |
buildTimeoutSeconds | Number of seconds to wait before assuming that the process has hung and should be killed. | Int32 | No | 600 | 1.4 |
description | Description used for the visualisation of the buildstage, if left empty the process name will be shown. | String | No | The task/publisher name. | 1.5 |
dynamicValues | The dynamic values to use for the task. | Dynamic Values array | No | None | 1.5 |
environment | A set of environment variables set for commands that are executed. Each variable should be specified as
. |
Environment Variable array | No | ||
executable | The path of the version of Rake you want to run. If this is relative, then must be relative to either (a) the base directory, (b) the CCNet Server application, or (c) if the path doesn't contain any directory details then can be available in the system or application's 'path' environment variable. | String | No | c:\ruby\bin\rake.bat | 1.4 |
priority | The priority class of the spawned process. | String - one of: * Normal * Idle * High * RealTime * BelowNormal * AboveNormal |
No | Normal | 1.5 |
quiet | Do not log messages to standard output. | Boolean | No | false | 1.4 |
rakefile | The name of the Rakefile to run, relative to the baseDirectory. If no rake file is specified Rake will use the default build file in the working directory. |
String | No | None | 1.4 |
silent | Like quiet but also suppresses the 'in directory' announcement. | Boolean | No | false | 1.4 |
targetList | A list of targets to be called. CruiseControl.NET does not call Rake once for each target, it uses the Rake feature of being able to specify multiple targets. If no targets are defined Rake will use the default target. |
String array | No | None | 1.4 |
trace | Turns on invoke/execute tracing and enables full backtrace. | Boolean | No | false | 1.4 |
Notes¶
Accessing CruiseControl.NET build labels in Rake¶
CCNet will pass the current build label to Rake via the environment variable CCNetLabel. This means that you can access this variable too. For example, archive the build results in a folder with the same name as the build label (this is what we do on CCNetLive using NAnt. Here's some example Rakefile demonstrating how to do this:
1 #!ruby
2 require 'rake'
3
4 task :default => [:deploy]
5
6 task :deploy do
7 publishdir="C:/download-area/CCNet-Builds/#{ENV['CCNetLabel']}"
8 mkdir_p publishdir
9 FileList['dist/*'].each do |file|
10 cp file, publishdir
11 end
12 end
13
See Integration Properties for the values that are passed to the task.
