# 2.5.16.11. HttpStatusPush

    from buildbot.plugins import reporters
    sp = reporters.HttpStatusPush(serverUrl="http://example.com/submit")
    c['services'].append(sp)

`HttpStatusPush` sends HTTP POST requests to `serverUrl`. The body of request contains json-encoded data of the build as returned by the data API. It is useful to create a status front end outside of Buildbot for better scalability.

Note

The json data object sent is completely different from the one that was generated by 0.8.x buildbot. It is indeed generated using data api.

class buildbot.reporters.HttpStatusPush(serverUrl, auth=None, headers=None, generators=None, debug=None, verify=None, cert=None, skip_encoding=False)
  Parameters:

    - serverUrl (string) – The url where to do the HTTP POST request

    - auth – The authentication method to use. Refer to the documentation of the requests library for more information.

    - headers (dict) – Pass custom headers to HTTP request.

    - generators (list of IReportGenerator instances) – A list of report generators that will be used to generate reports to be sent by this reporter. Currently the reporter will consider only the report generated by the first generator.

    - debug (boolean) – Logs every requests and their response

    - verify (boolean) – Disable ssl verification for the case you use temporary self signed certificates or path to a CA_BUNDLE file or directory. Refer to the documentation of the requests library for more information.

    - cert (string) – Path to client side certificate, as a single file (containing the private key and certificate) or a tuple of both files’ paths. Refer to the documentation of the requests library for more information.

    - skip_encoding (boolean) – Disables encoding of json data to bytes before pushing to server

## Json object spec

The default json object sent is a build object augmented with some more data as follow.

    {
        "url": "http://yourbot/path/to/build",
        "<build data api values>": "[...]",
        "buildset": "<buildset data api values>",
        "builder": "<builder data api values>",
        "buildrequest": "<buildrequest data api values>"
    }

If you want another format, don’t hesitate to use the `format_fn` parameter to customize the payload. The `build` parameter given to that function is of type `build`, optionally enhanced with properties, steps, and logs information.
