Install

This project requires Node.js ^8.10.0 || >=10.13.0. Install it using yarn or npm.
We highly recommend to use Yarn when you think to contribute to this project.

$ yarn add git-commits-since

Usage

In this example, we show how this package can be used in combination with parse-commit-message and detect-next-version to make robust automation, pblish & release flow.

This actually is used in the @tunnckocore/release-cli and the Release GitHub App.
In the CLI commits are collected from git log using this module, in the App commits are from the GitHub API.

Example

import { applyPlugins, plugins, parse, check } from 'parse-commit-message';
import gitCommitsSince from 'git-commits-since';
import detector from 'detect-next-version';
 
async function main() {
  const { rawCommits } = await gitCommitsSince({ cwd: 'path/to/repo' });
  const commits = applyPlugins(plugins, check(parse(rawCommits)));
 
  // detect-next-version, also can accept rawCommits (array of strings) directly,
  // but that is that way just for demo purposes.
  const result = await detector('my-npm-package', commits);
 
  console.log(result);
  console.log(result.pkg);
  console.log(result.patch);
  console.log(result.increment); // => 'patch'
  console.log(result.isBreaking); // => false
  console.log(result.lastVersion); // => 0.1.0
  console.log(result.nextVersion); // => 0.1.1
}

API

Generated using docks.

src/index.js

gitCommitsSince

Gets all commits since given options.from or since last semver tag (by default). In return you will get useful metadata and rawCommits. Where rawCommits is an array of commit message strings. Optionally you can pass a options.plugin functin which is passed with (rawCommit: string, result: object) signature and will be called on each commit. This behavior can be used to do fun stuff on per each project basis. Such as parsing each rawCommit or whatever.

Params

• options {object} basically passed to git-raw-commits and git-semver-tags

Returns

• Promise<object> resolves to an object with { from, to, cwd, rawCommits }

Examples

import gitCommitsSince from 'git-commits-since';
 
async function main() {
  const result = await gitCommitsSince({ cwd: 'path/to/git/repository' });
 
  console.log(result);
  // the @ means HEAD or the latest commit
  // => { from: 'v0.1.0', to: '@', cwd: 'path/to/cwd', rawCommits, options }
}
 
main().catch(console.error);

import gitCommitsSince from 'git-commits-since';
 
// Using the plugin API
async function main() {
  const plugin = (rawCommitString, result) => {
    console.log(rawCommitString);
    // log each commit
 
    result.qux = 12345;
 
    return { foo: 'bar' };
  };
 
  const res = await gitCommitsSince({ plugin });
  console.log(res);
  console.log(res.rawCommits);
  console.log(res.foo); // => 'bar'
  console.log(res.qux); // => 12345
}
 
main().catch(console.error);
