grunt-deployment-logger

Provides tasks to log deployment markers to redis. See kibana docs for more info.

['start-deployment', 'end-deployment']

Currently only supports logging to redis. The type option is provided so that you can strongly-type the log messages.

grunt.initConfig({
  'start-deployment': {
    'myproject': {
      options: {
        host: '127.0.0.1',
        port: 6379,
        list: 'logstash',
        type: 'myproject-deployment-message',
        message: 'starting deployment of version 1.2.3',
        env: 'test'
      }
    }
  },
  'end-deployment': {
      'myproject': {
        options: {
          host: '127.0.0.1',
          port: 6379,
          list: 'logstash',
          type: 'myproject-deployment-message',
          message: 'finished deployment of version 1.2.3',
          env: 'prod'
          timestamp: new Date().toISOString() // default timestamp is unix milliseconds, you can override it if you want ISO or something else
        }
      }
    }
});
