Get latest successful build number from Bamboo

This little script gets the latest successful build number.

SAVEIFS=$IFS

IFS=$'\n'

for ln in `wget -O- --quiet --http-user="{user name}" --http-password="{user password}" 'http://{bamboo site url}/rest/api/latest/build/{plan key}?os_authType=basic' | tr '<' '\n'`

do

  build_number=`echo $ln | perl -n -e 'm/number="([\s\S]+?)" lifeCycleState="Finished" state="Successful"/ && {print "$1\n"}'`

  if [ $build_number ] 

  then

     break

  fi

done

IFS=$SAVEIFS

echo "Latest successful build number $build_number"

Once you have the build number, you can use that to get latest code coverage, artifacts etc. Get the url for the intended resource and substitute with the $build_number variable above
