Installation

npm install -g adviser

Usage

Adviser's goal is to run rules defined in a configuration file. It doesn't get involve in what the rules do; it just run them and control them.

In order to use it, you need to:

1. Create a configuration file
2. (Optional) Install the plugins you've like to use
3. Set the rules we want to use

Run adviser

$ adviser

If you run adviser without any arguments it will try to find a valid configuration file in the current directory and continues in through the parent directories until find a configuration file.

CLI Arguments

-c, --config Specify config file path

-i, --init Run config initialization wizard

-d, --debug Output debugging information

-V, --verbose Display extra information

-t, --tags Run rules that match tags

-h, --help Show help

-v, --version Output the version number

Configuration example file

All the rules documentation is located inside /docs/rules

2. Add a title and body that follows the Conventional Commits Specification.
3. Run $ git checkout master; git pull origin master
4. Run $ npm run release
5. Run $ git push --follow-tags origin master && npm publish

Tests

Unit Tests

There is a small set of tests implemented using Jest, to run them use: $ npm test
