[users at bb.net] creating buildbot rules dynamically from source tree

[Pierre Tardy]

Hi Timo,
Thanks for reaching out. Your planned process looked like top-notch state
of the art CI.

Buildbot is capabable of that indeed as a CI framework.
The part 2 is very similar to what travis/circle, etc is doing, and we have
a project that is implementing travis like process

https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot_travis

I think this is the example you are looking for.

Let us know
Pierre
