Configuring email notifications for CruiseControl.NET

November 26 2007 5:15AM
I gotten a few emails asking how I to setup email notifications for builds running under CruiseControl.NET. Here is a section from one of the ccnet.config files I’m using on a CruiseControl.NET server:
 1 <publishers>
 2     <statistics />
 3     <xmllogger />
 4 
 5     <email from="fromaddr@here.com" mailhost="192.168.1.14"
 6         mailhostPassword="pwd" mailhostUsername="username" 
 7         includeDetails="true">
 8     <users>
 9         <user name="Steve Trefethen" address="stevet@nospam.com"
10             group="NotifyGroup" />
11     </users>
12     <groups>
13         <group name="NotifyGroup" notification="failed" />
14     </groups>
15     </email>
16 </publishers>
Nothing unusual except of course for changing some of the more obvious details. :-)

FYI, there are some changes beyond the release level of 1.3 (build #1.3.0.2918) that make email publishers easier to configure if you have more than a handful of users to set up.

Hi Ross,
  Yes, I've noticed the latest changes and in fact, I have a blog post in the works talking about some of the post 1.3 features. Btw, thanks for you help on the sourcecontrol exception issue.

Is there a way to set up cruise control to have emails go out to those uerss who have committed a files for a build that fails? I've read how you can set up users and not assign them to a group, which intern emails them whether the build fails or passes. I want the same kind of functionality, but only when the build fails. I dont want to have them get emailed if the build passes.

Craig,
  Yes, there is a way to target email at source control userids. For more details refer to confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/.../Email+Publisher">this page of the CCNET docs. Specifically, look at how Converters work where you can convert a sourcecontrol userid to an email address. I'm fairly certain that the support for this feature was introduced after the 1.3 release so you'll likely want to grab a later build or grab the tip and rebuild CCNET.

How do I configure the email body. I would like to look similar to the Build Report in Dash board. In Dashboard I see Build status, Modifications and MSTest Summary.

Thanks
