Git Siren

The aim of this project is to turn on a REAL beacon light when a new urgent issue is created on github!

What do you need:

• Raspberry Pi
• Micro USB cable
• Power converter DC 12V to DC 5V (e.g. http://www.dx.com/p/390976) (~ 3.50€)
• Power adapter DC 12V (e.g. http://www.dx.com/p/411920) (~ 3.50€)
• Relay module (e.g. http://www.dx.com/p/121354) (~ 2.00€)
• Emergency siren light 12V (e.g. http://www.ebay.it/itm/161668609157) (~ 10.00€)

Schema:

Wiring Raspberry Pi to relay depends by your Raspberry Pi GPIO schema and your relay schema, you can find them online. You need 3 wires: GND, 5V and signal. In my script signal is on pin 17.

Configuration:

You need to take inspiration from config_example.py and create your own config.py file.

Usage:

With python siren.py [port] you will manage the beacon light (default port is 8080).

With python github_adapter.py you will check for new issues and a POST request will be sent when a new issue will be found.

You can also use only python siren.py [port] and make a POST:

http POST http://localhost:8080/light actor=my_test duration=3

I manage it with supervisord on Raspbian.

Still to do:

• Ansible script to install and configure supervisor
• recognise urgent from PR rather than from issue
• split the project in 2 parts

Any help (PR) is really appreciated
