Curl string for pinging HipChat server. Event Espresso (one of my clients) is trying out the hipchat.com service and they have a really cool api for sending notifications/messages to the chat rooms. So I wired up our git deploy repo on our server to notify the chatrooms whenever we deploy. Here's the one liner script I added.
curl --data "room_id=99999" --data "from=EEWebsiteBot" --data-urlencode "message=Event Espresso staging servers (beta and dev) have been deployed to" --data "message_format=text" --data "notify=1" --data "color=purple" https://api.hipchat.com/v1/rooms/message?auth_token=obsfucated_api_token
##So the room_id corresponds to what room you want the notifications go to and the auth token is the api key you generate via the group admin in HipChat (web).
