This project permits to have Travis CI builds triggered periodically, for example to test scrapers.

At Travis they will eventually implement cron (ref: travis-ci/travis-ci#582), meanwhile, I hope this helps :)

This project is made of two parts:

• A Django web app (running at http://traviscron.pythonanywhere.com) that lets users add new triggers to the queue.
• A Python module, travis_ping, that given a GH project name and a Travis OAuth token, triggers a rebuild.

The actual work is done by a continuously running process, crontab-like: python manage.py runworker.

Probably the first 3rd party app made using the new Travis API!
