Use this tool if you're working on an FHIR Implementation Guide in a public GitHub repository and want your work-in-progress to be visible as part of the FHIR Continuous Integration (CI) build service at https://build.fhir.org/ig/.
By following the instructions below, you can configure your GitHub repository to auto-build every time you make a commit (on any branch), and the resulting output (successful IG content, or debugging logs) will automatically be pushed to https://build.fhir.org/ig/.
- Create an IG in a new folder, including a file called
ig.ini
alongside any other content (for example apages
folder) that your IG requires. See https://confluence.hl7.org/display/FHIR/IG+Publisher+Documentation for full documentation. - Put your IG on GitHub: create a public GitHub repository within your own organization, and push your content to GitHub.
- Add FHIR IG Builder: Install https://github.com/apps/fhir-ig-builder on your org or repo.
Now GitHub will automatically trigger a build whenever you commit changes. :-)
- branches are
[A-Za-z0-9_-]
only. Other characters such as/
will not work in branch names - build notifications at https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179297-committers.2Fnotification/topic/ig-build
- builds takes 2-3 minutes to complete
Click to show alternative method (manually configured webhook)
In your repo, click "Settings", then "Webhooks & Services", then "Add Webhook" Enter a URL of `https://us-central1-fhir-org-starter-project.cloudfunctions.net/ig-commit-trigger` Choose "Content type" of `application/json` Accept the default (blank) "secret". Choose "Just the push event" as your trigger Click "Add webhook". Note: first webhook call will of type `ping` and will fail. That is (currently) OK. Once you make a commit and a push, a call of type `push` will be made and that should be successful if your setup is correct.https://build.fhir.org/ig/:org/:repo/branches/:branch
(The default branch will also be available directly at https://build.fhir.org/ig/:org/:repo .)
For a build log, see: https://build.fhir.org/ig/:org/:repo/branches/:branch/build.log
(Logs for the default branch will also be available directly at https://build.fhir.org/ig/:org/:repo/build.log .)
In case the build failed, the log will be available in https://build.fhir.org/ig/:org/:repo/branches/:branch/failure/build.log
You can always push a new commit to your repo. But if you want to re-trigger a build for an existing commit, you have a couple of options.
You can use the dashboard at https://fhir.github.io/auto-ig-builder.
Or if you're using web hooks, you can navigate through the GitHub UI within your repo to "Settings > Webhooks > ig-commit-trigger", scroll down to "Recent Deliveries," click the top one, and click "Redeliver.
Or if you want to trigger a build programatically, you can POST
to the Webhook URL yourself, specifying a branch, org, and repo. For example with the test-igs
org, simple
repo, and master
branch:
curl -X POST "https://us-central1-fhir-org-starter-project.cloudfunctions.net/ig-commit-trigger" \
-H "Content-type: application/json" \
--data '{"ref": "refs/heads/master", "repository": {"full_name": "test-igs/simple"}}'
