gitignorer

Build Status codecov

Creates .gitignore for you with your very own profiles.

No more copy and pasting people's .gitignore. Start building your profiles!

Abstract

gitignorer has only two commands, yet they are very convenient:

  1. gitignore init [profile]
  2. gitignore profiles

Installation

npm install -g gitignorer

Usage

gitignore init [profile]

gitignore init creates .gitignore with the given profile.

# create .gitignore with "default" profile or empty profile 
> gitignore init
 
# create .gitignore with "node" profile 
> gitignore init node

gitignore profiles

gitignore profiles lists the profiles exported by ~/.gitignore.profiles.js.

> gitignore profiles

 default
  |- *.sw*
  |- .DS_Store

 node
  |- *.sw*
  |- .DS_Store
  |- node_modules
  |- npm-debug.log*

You can create a `.gitignore` using `gitignore init [profile]`

gitignore -h

gitignore help:

> gitignore -h

  Usage: gitignorer [options] [command]


  Options:

    -V, --version  output the version number
    -h, --help     output usage information


  Commands:

    init [options] [profile]  Create .gitignore at current directory
    profiles                  List all profiles and their corresponding files

subcommands help:

> gitignore init --help

  Usage: init [options] [profile]

  Create .gitignore at current directory


  Options:

    -f, --force  overwrite the existing .gitignore
    -h, --help   output usage information

Profiles (~/.gitignore.profiles.js)

gitignorer looks into ~/.gitignore.profiles.js which should export profiles.

A simple example that defines the default profile:

module.exports = {
  default: ['*.sw*', '.DS_Store']
};

A more complicated example:

const common = [
  '*.sw*',
  '.DS_Store'
];
 
const node = [
  'node_modules',
];
 
const java = [
  'url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gitignore/master/Java.gitignore',
  '.object2'
];
 
module.exports = {
  default: common,
  node: [...common, ...node],
  java: [...common, ...java],
  awesome: [...common, ...node, ...java],
};

Note that you could attach an url with any gitignore template. A very nice repository provides loads of templates available: github/gitignore.

Urls entry should start with "url: ".
