API

gitclone

Clones github repository, optionally pass destination folder. By defaults uses HTTPS to clone the repository. If you want SSH clone you should pass second, third or fourth argument boolean true, or object {ssh: true}. Pattern can be user/repo#branch as first argument. Or first argument user, second argument repo, third branch, fourth ssh.

Hint: All arguments are super flexible and they are handled absolutely directly with gitclone-defaults, so read its API docs. In addition, you also can pass callback as last argument, otherwise it will return Spawn stream.

Params

  • [callback] {Function}: optional, if not given, returns a stream
  • returns {Stream}: if not callback given as last argument - a Spawn stream

Example

const gitclone = require('gitclone')
 
// clones with SSH
gitclone('node-minibase/minibase', true)
 
// clone with HTTPS
gitclone('node-minibase/minibase', (err) => {
  if (err) return console.error(err)
})
 
// clone `dev` branch from `verbose/verb` repo
gitclone('verbose/verb#dev', console.log)
 
// clone `jonschlinkert/nanomatch` with SSH
gitclone('jonchlinkert', 'nanomatch', true)
 
// clone to different destination folder
gitclone('hybridables/always-done', { dest: 'foobar' })
 
// clone SSH + dest + branch
gitclone('verbose/verb', { dest: 'verb0.9.0', branch: 'dev', ssh: true })
