Send chat notifications also when build becomes fixed or is unstable

[markahon]

I would assume most people would like to see some notification when build is fixed or unstable. This is how email notifications are usually configured.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you!

This seems like a good addition to the plugin. Could the different build statuses be separate options in the notification configuration? I.e. something like

Send chat notification on 
[ ] failure 
[ ] unstable 
[ ] fixed

Here the failure check box would map to the existing value from field chatNotification (the naming isn't optimal) and the others would be new configuration fields. I would prefer that since it doesn't change the plugin behavior for existing users, but allows them to opt-in. Does that sound reasonable?

[markahon]

That sounds reasonable. Unfortunately I don't have an environment to test the plugin at the moment since I've moved on to other things. I could implement the change, but I'd rather not do it blindfolded.

My team just asked for this same kind of chat notification rather than just the flow notifications. We're also using the Build Pipeline Plugin and they would like targeted notifications in chat with @user when the source job was triggered by a user or a github.com event that passes the information along... @markahon I'd be willing to test the plugin if that would help.

@Suirtimed highlighting the person behind the build sounds like a nice feature. For it to work seamlessly, the plugin would have to know how the Jenkins / Github users map to Flowdock users so that the highlight in chat message matches the user's nick in Flowdock.

+1 for it. Does anyone tested it?
