jq error

[kobylyanskiy]

Using the example config I'm getting the following error:

jq: error (at <stdin>:4): Cannot iterate over null (null)

I also don't want to write my own resource. Could you please verify that error or tell me if I'm doing something wrong.

What operation is this occurring during: check, get, put? Are you sure your API token user has permissions for the repository you’re trying to edit?

Hi, @dpb587.
Thank you for the answer. I'm trying to put status to my repo. API token is 100% right cause previously I was able to push status to that repo with a simple Go program. Basically I'm trying to do this:

plan:
    - get: builder
      params: {submodules: none}
      trigger: true
    - put: "repo-status"
      params:
        state: "pending"
        commit: "builder"  

[dpb587]

I don't think I have seen this error before and, unfortunately, it's not easy to debug right now. Quickly reviewing some of the code, I think this could, theoretically, occur if builder is working off a different branch than repo-status was. You might want to make sure repo-status is configured with the branch option if you're using something other than master for builder.

For what it's worth, the original issue might be fixed by any of:

• Add error handling and retry mechanism to curl calls within curlgh #14
• Add retry parameters and stronger retry logic #15

I am getting this in check

resource_types:
- name: github-status
  type: "docker-image"
  source:
    repository: "dpb587/github-status-resource"
    tag: v2.1.0
- name: github_status
  type: github-status
  source:
    branch: master
    repository: git@github.com:<repo name>.git
    access_token: ((github-access-token))
jobs:
- name: Build Master
  plan:
  - do:
   ...
  on_failure:
    put: github_status
    params: { state: failure, commit: git_master }

resource script '/opt/resource/check []' failed: exit status 5

stderr:

I was also getting this error upon moving a git repo from organisation to organisation and I had forgotten to apply the changes on the resource's config.

Having the same issue. The status gets set correctly but it still throws that error.

out of curiosity, is this repo even maintained?
