A simple bamboo notifier tray icon

We build all our software using the continuous integration tool Bamboo. After searching the internet for a while I still couldn't find a simple tray icon notifier for bamboo, so I decided to create one myself.

You can find the project located at: http://bamboo-notifier.googlecode.com


Bamboo notifier is an Adobe AIR application that runs in the system tray on various platforms, it notifies you of you build statusses. It works by reading Bamboo's RSS feed. It shows green or red icons in the system tray and in the application per build plan. It is also possible to click on a build and read the commit message, author and committed file set. More features can be added on request.

Feel free to submit bugs and feature requests in the issues section.

You can download the application at the following url: http://bamboo-notifier.appspot.com/downloads/bamboo-notifier.air

You need the adobe AIR runtime to be able to install the application. If you OS doesn't know what to do with the .air file install Adobe AIR first: http://get.adobe.com/air/

The application is fully opensource, you can download the source code at: http://bamboo-notifier.googlecode.com. The application files are hosted at google's app engine :)

By the way, I haven't tested it yet on a Mac, so i don't know if it even works at all..

Comments are appreciated
