This is a working example of a Perforce submit-change trigger that can run checks on new files and new or modified lines of code.
Tested on Python2 in Linux and Windows. It does not require the P4Python API, which would probably be a little cleaner, but makes it less portable.
The install instructions are below in the Python file. Before using, the hard-coded P4 user value builds
must be created on your server, or changed to a valid user. To prevent having to set the user password in the script, the builds
user must be part of a group with the Timeout
field set to unlimited
to allow for the user to remain logged in on the server.
