Target Audience

  • Developers: Those who work with CI/CD pipelines and want to automate builds on TravisCI.
    - DevOps Engineers: Professionals looking to streamline their deployment processes and improve efficiency.
    - Project Managers: Individuals overseeing software projects who need to ensure builds are triggered promptly upon execution.
    - Teams using n8n: Teams already utilizing n8n for workflow automation and looking to integrate TravisCI into their processes.

    • Problem Solved

    This workflow addresses the need for a manual trigger to initiate builds in TravisCI without requiring complex configurations or additional tools. It simplifies the process for users who want to quickly start a build when needed, ensuring that builds can be executed on-demand with just a click.

    Workflow Steps

  • Manual Trigger: The workflow begins with a manual trigger node that activates when the user clicks 'execute'. This allows for immediate control over the build process.
    2. TravisCI Node: Once triggered, the workflow proceeds to the TravisCI node. Here, users can specify the repository slug and branch for the build.
    3. Build Execution: The TravisCI node then sends a request to TravisCI to initiate the build process on the specified branch, effectively integrating with the CI/CD pipeline.

    • Customization Guide

  • Configure Repository: Users can set the slug parameter in the TravisCI node to point to their specific repository.
    - Specify Branch: Update the branch parameter to choose which branch to build.
    - Add Additional Fields: Users can enhance the build request by adding parameters in the additionalFields section, such as environment variables or build options.
    - Change Trigger Method: Modify the manual trigger node to integrate with other trigger types if needed, such as webhooks or scheduled events.
