Hi,

First of all, great utility and keep up the good work!

When configured to use a jenkins server, after I select the jobs I'm interested in, how do i re-order the display order of these jobs in the Dashboard?

CatLight for Windows v1.7.14 Beta

Thanks!

Integrated Windows authentication might not work for TFS servers that has multiple authentication schemes turned on (like Basic and NTLM). Issue will affect some users upgrading to 1.7 and newer version.

This is caused by a bug in 20-year old Win32 API that is internally used by .Net Core. 

As a workaround, you can connect to the TFS by providing the credentials.

I am behind a NTLM proxy. To get programs like git through the proxy, I use a local authenticating proxy and define the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables appropriately. Catlight respects these variables, which is really nice, except that I don't run the proxy all the time. Unfortunately catlight uses these variables for the "client" to connect to the server on localhost and when the proxy is not running, catlight fails to connect and the gears keep spinning and spinning.

Please don't make the client respect the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables to connect to the localhost.

I just downloaded the product, and am using on premises TFS I am trying to setup, but am getting an authentication issue. I am not using a Proxy I tried to use windows auth and submitting credentials (with domain name) 2016-06-03 14:40:35.8567 |  INFO | EventLogger | {"e":"Tfs.FailedToUpdateSettings","p":{"Message":"Authentication needed. Error message: "}} 2016-06-03 14:41:46.3089 | DEBUG | TfsController | Checking connection to 'http://spp-tfs:8080/tfs/NS' 2016-06-03 14:41:46.6828 | DEBUG | TfsController | Received OK status code

I will be sending an email with the details and log to help debug this.

Catlight should support the Harbormaster build server that is part of Phabricator.

To receive the status of builds within Harbormaster, you'll need to get the user to provide an API token.  Once you have that, you can query the API endpoints in Conduit to find out:

• A list of repositories the user has access to: https://secure.phabricator.com/conduit/method/diffusion.repository.search/
• A list of branches in each repository: https://secure.phabricator.com/conduit/method/diffusion.branchquery/
• With the commit hashes, you then need find out the internal PHIDs (unique identifiers) of those commits with: https://secure.phabricator.com/conduit/method/diffusion.querycommits/ 
• Then you can query the pass / fail status of those commits by passing those PHIDs in as "buildablePHIDs"

The default keystroke to quit on OS X is to press Command-Q.  However, this does not work in CatLight.

Hi guys, and thanks for the great work.

I'm a TFS admin, and I would like to use your soft at work, but when I tested it I've seen two disturbing things in my fiddler :

CONTEXT : TFS 2015 Update 2.1, two AD Domains, and each user has an account on each domain (ex : DOMAIN1\adminuser and DOMAIN2\admlinuser)

1 - Seems like all requests are doubled : first one ends on a 401, and second passes (is it by design ?) :

Result Protocol Host  URL                Body Caching             Content-Type  Process  401  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/_api/_identity/checkName?name=band... 341  text/html;    charset=us-ascii dnx:2328 500  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/_api/_identity/checkName?name=band... 20 030 private text/html;  charset=utf-8  dnx:2328 401  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/_api/_identity/ReadIdentitiesPageJ... 341  text/html;    charset=us-ascii dnx:2328 200  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/_api/_identity/ReadIdentitiesPageJ... 7 521 private, no-sto...  charset=utf-8  dnx:2328 401  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/TeamProject1/_apis/build/builds/?ap... 341  text/html;    charset=us-ascii dnx:2328 200  HTTP  tfs:8080 /tfs/defaultcollection/TeamProject1/_apis/build/builds/?ap... 20 304 no-cache; Expir...  charset=utf-8;... dnx:2328

for example:  poll for new builds every 60 seconds, but poll for changes every 5 seconds when something is actually building.

To make the dashboard easier to scan visually, it would be nice if each SCM provider was identified by its logo. It would also be nice to have logos for each organization/repository. Please take a look at how Gitter has solved the latter. Here's a screenshot from my Gitter dashboard:

It would be nice if the build overview refreshed in a more ajax-y way, so there's no flash of bright white background before the page is rendered. It is quite startling and annoying to have the window open and be drawn to the white blink all the time.

Possibly as a set of alternative schemes or schemes+full config

Hi,

I am trying to install the Windows version on a Windows 7 developer machine, we have some policies regarding execution in various folders like fx the Temp folder. When I ask the Infraguys to install it for me with elevated rights the installer just says that it failed. Any ideas? Is it possibel to get the installationfiles in a zip-archive or something?

Our Jenkins is accessed via a subdirectory, so effectively something like

putting in this URL in the Jenkins Connection Settings results in:

• Response status code does not indicate success: 404 (Not Found).

using Fiddler, I was able to see that the subdirectory is being dropped from the request to the API endpoint. If I modify that request to include the subdirectory (request #3 in screenshot below), the response indicates success.

So it seems to be happening quite regularly (3 times in the last 15 minutes) where all builds I'm monitoring will just go blank and show up as ? "no builds" then will refresh after a minute or 2 and send me a whole lot of notifications about each of the build statuses. TFS 2015 Win10 machine (while most of these are XAML builds, even the vNext build showed this problem) Is the app losing connection to TFS? then getting it back after refresh period to send all notifications?

I checked the %appdata%\catlight\logs\log.txt file and it showed just notifications were pushed.

We have wpad for automatic proxy configuration in use. Catlight gives a connection timeout error while starting and doesn't even allow us to use on-prem TFS. (menu grayed out)

the build list can be long when looking for 1 to add, but when we no longer care about a build it should be easy to remove from the dashboard instead of going back to settings to uncheck it.

So not sure here if it's just because the last time they were ran or what... but the dashboard is showing the builds as ? when I click to view the builds the last ones were successful (in January). Any reason for this?

CatLight was not installed to my Start Menu's Startup folder. How can I add it there so that CatLight starts when Windows starts but only in the system tray, without opening the CatLight window? Is there a command line argument to do this?
