[…] older twitter mercurial hook relied on twitter’s basic authentication which, as of August 31, 2010, is no longer […]

When you’re using:

incoming.notify = python:hgext.hgtwitter.hook

You should place the hgtwitter.py file in your site-packages/hgext/ folder (in $PYHTONPATH)

See how modules work here:

Hello, I tried to incorporate your hgtwitter script on my mercurial server but failed to work.

Here’s what I did:
– I put hgtwitter.py in the same folder as mercurial (In my Ubuntu, it is in /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/hgext

– I added these lines in /etc/mercurial/hgrc (is it okay if I put it here, since I want it to update status on Twitter for all my repos)
[extensions]
hgext.hgrc=

[hooks]
incoming.notify = python:hgext.hgtwitter.hook

[twitter]
username = my_user_name (should it be a string?)
password = my_password (should this also be a string?)

But when I try to push changes to the server, I got:
abort: incoming.notify hook is invalid (import of “hgext.hgtwitter” failed)

It confuses me since in python shell, import hgext.hgtwitter seems to work.

Can you help me out?

Thanks.

Where do you save this file? In ~/.hg?

Thanks

Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond. I finally got around to upgrading my mercurial to 1.2.1. The extension seems to be working and doesn’t produce any errors. One thing that I can think of that might cause this issue would be version 0.5 of python-twitter . The latest released version is 0.5 but I think it’s from around 2007 and it seems they have been working on it without an official release for 2 years. I use the latest svn version which contains some important bug fixes. You can find the latest svn version of python-twitter here http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/source/checkout .

Thanks! It’s working great now! I’m seeing one error when I do a push still, but it doesn’t seem to hurt anything (I get my tweets). However, I thought I’d send it along in case you had any ideas:

error: incoming.notify hook raised an exception: object is not callable

Anyway, thank you again for this great little hook. With that (and Trac), I’ve got everything I need!

I recall having a similar issue. I think the changeset_templater init function definition changed between mercurial 1.1 and 1.2. The 1.2 definition takes an extra ‘diffopts’ argument:

def __init__(self, ui, repo, patch, diffopts, mapfile, buffered):

while the 1.1 definition is missing the ‘diffopts’ argument:

def __init__(self, ui, repo, patch, mapfile, buffered):

Passing ‘diffopts=None’ as an argument to changeset_templater should solve the issue.

So the mercurial 1.2 version would look like:

t = cmdutil.changeset_templater(ui=ui, repo=repo,
                                   patch=False, diffopts=None,
                                   mapfile=None,  buffered=False)

While the mercurial 1.1 version would look like:

t = cmdutil.changeset_templater(ui=ui, repo=repo,
                                   patch=False, mapfile=None,
                                   buffered=False)

Thanks for letting me know. I think I will update the main article with the 1.2 version.

Thanks for the script, it looks good, but I’m having a problem. I got the following message back:

error: incoming.notify hook raised an exception: __init__() takes exactly 7 non-keyword arguments (4 given)

I’m really not sure where the issue would be as I’m not given any trace (do you know how to get a trace?) and I don’t know how to debug without doing another commit (which is fine…). Anyway, I thought you might have some ideas?

My setup is as follows:

Python 2.4.4
Mercurial – 1.2.1
SimpleJSON 2.0.9
Python Twitter 0.5

Thanks for your help,
Charlie
