cwsn v1.0.3

Commit with prefix

Simple CLI tool built for personal use

Motivation :

In my current work assignment, there is a practice to add a certain prefix in the commit message based on the feature that we are working on. This prefix is then used to track the work around that feature.

If we put a wrong prefix in the commit message then it won't be able to track that commit for that specific feature.

I tended to mess up this prefix a couple of times. And hence decided to build this tool to rectify that.

Installation :

This tool can be installed using npm i -g cwsn

cwsn stands for commit with story number

Usage :

There are four flags - -i, -v, -m

cwsn -i <prefix> : This will instantiate the commit prefix.

cwsn -v : This will show the currently set commit prefix.

cwsn -m <message_without_prefix> : This will commit the message along with the prefix automatically.

cwsn -h : This will show how this tool can be used.

Common problem

If the command does not work due to the error node not found, follow the below steps: 1. Run the command which node to find the current node executable path in your machine. 2. Then run the command cp <current_path> /usr/local/bin/node

This will resolve the problem being faced.

Considerations :

The prefix message has to be initialised again on machine startup as it will be lost when the machine is shut down.
