Lighthouse

If you happen to use Lighthouse as your bug/issue tracking tool, you can now get your source control commit messages linked to your tickets as changesets.

Getting Your Lighthouse Token

  • You will need to get a API token for your Lighthouse account.
  • Head on over to their help documentation which explains how you can get hold of one.

Enabling Lighthouse Integration

  • Head over to your XP-Dev.com project's Repository tab
  • Click on Edit Lighthouse Integration Options

Edit Lighthouse

  • Enter your Lighthouse token and domain (usually ending with .lighthouseapp.com)
  • If you know your Lighthouse project ID, just enter it there. If you don't, just click on Find Lighthouse projects using the token above and it will search for available projects. If some projects were found, you should see them listed in a drop-down box next to the link.
  • Click on Save

Lighthouse Settings

Whenever you commit a new revision in your XP-Dev.com repository, you should see a changeset in your Lighthouse project.

Lighthouse Example

And if you had linked the changeset to a Lighthouse ticket, you will see a comment posted on the ticket as well.
