Mattermost Openresty bridge

This is a bridge between Mattermost and various other services, scripted in Lua using the Openresty platform.

Installation

This is a Docker container with an up-to-date docker-compose file so basically you just need to

docker-compose up

and you're done.

If you want bots to send custom username to Mattermost, you need to check the Enable integrations to override usernames setting in Mattermost System Console.

If you want to add custom config, best is to use the docker-compose.override.yml file (see https://docs.docker.com/compose/extends/ on how this works).

Auth Token

It is possible to set the env variable AUTH_TOKEN to some string which will be checked via the /auth endpoint. To pass the token in the URL, specify it in the querystring under the auth= key:

https://<mattermost-openresty>/mattermost/bitbucket?auth=<auth-token>

(This is a primitive authentication method. However 3rd party webhooks like Bibucket don't seem to provide even header tokens).

Bitbucket webhooks support

In Bitbucket, go to project Settings -> Webhooks -> Add webhook. As the webhook URL enter

<openresty-host>/mattermost/bitbucket

Then go to Mattermost, add an Incoming hook and paste its URL into docker-compose.yml under the BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_URL setting (this is where the notifications about Bitbucket events will come). Start the containers and you're done!

Username is bitbucket by default, change it via the BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_USER env variable.

Multiple rooms for multiple Bitbucket configurations

You can have multiple Bitbucket notifications being proxied to multiple rooms. Just specify BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_URL_ROOM1 env variable and set the bitbucket URL to <openresty-host>/mattermost/bitbucket?room=room1 (uppercase env is handled automatically).

Same goes for BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_USER_USER1 being mapped to <openresty-host>/mattermost/bitbucket?user=user1.

Don't forget to add your custom variables to the nginx.conf file!

If you don't want to provide multiple variables and alter the nginx.conf file, there is another way to introduce multiple rooms. You can define a simple key-value mapping (in JSON format) into the BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_URL and BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_USER variables. Also, "default" key has the special property of returning the value whenever it is not found in JSON.

For example:

BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_URL='{"default": "<other-rooms>", "room1": "<room1-url>", "room2": "<room2-url>"}'
BITBUCKET_MATTERMOST_USER='{"room1": "<room1-user>", "room2": "<room2-user>"}'

The default user is bitbucket but there is no default URL so if room is undefined, nginx will throw an exception.

Bitbucket Pipelines support

We also support update notifications from Bitbucket Pipelines. To add the Webhook, go to your repository settings on Bitbucket, select Webhooks -> Add Webhook and then make sure to pick Choose from a full list of triggers -> Build status updated.

Environment variables are PIPELINES_MATTERMOST_URL and PIPELINES_MATTERMOST_USER and they behave in exactly the same way as variables for the Bitbucket integration.

Sentry integration

In a Sentry project settings, enable webhooks, then put this as the address:

<openresty-host>/sentry/mattermost

Again, create an Incoming webhook in Mattermost and save in docker-compose.yml under the SENTRY_MATTERMOST_URL variable.

Username is sentry by default, change it via the SENTRY_MATTERMOST_USER env variable.

Same logic applies for the SENTRY_MATTERMOST_URL and SENTRY_MATTERMOST_USER variables for multi-room configuration as above.

TeamCity integration

You need the teamcity-webhooks plugin.

Create an Incoming hook in Mattermost, save it in docker-compose.yml under the TEAMCITY_MATTERMOST_URL variable.

Now, to set up TeamCity this is what I did: I created a dummy project, inside it a simple build configuration with the following script contents:

#!/bin/bash

echo "%teamcity.build.triggeredBy%"

curl "<mattermost-openresty-server-url>" -XPOST -d '{"triggeredBy": "%teamcity.build.triggeredBy%"}'

For build Triggers, I add all build configurations that I want to watch. Unfortunately, our dummy build will only get the variable teamcity.build.triggeredBy which has the form:

Finish Build Trigger; <project-name> :: <build-configuration>, build #8

So on our side, we parse that variable, and fetch all required data from the TeamCity REST API. That's why you also need to specify the following variables:

  • TEAMCITY_SERVER_URL -- the URL of the TeamCity server. It probably could sent via the above curl command but this way we get to add more fancy configuraitons (the syntax is also the key-value JSON format described above).
  • TEAMCITY_SERVER_AUTH -- this is the base64-encoded <username>:<password> string for the TeamCity user who has read access to the projects, build configurations and build number data.
