gitopia v1.0.0

Git Utils

git-utils is yet another Git wrapper (yes, I thought about calling it yag or something similar, but that joke's a little played out, I think). So why another Git wrapper? Mainly because I looked at all the existing ones and they didn't do what I need, and I didn't feel that they were well-suited for contribution. Which is why I'm rolling my own. My goals are:

• Extremely easy to create new functions.
• Write one (synchronous) function, and the framework will automatically generate sync and (promise-based) async versions.
• Fast, easy unit testing.

Sync/Async

The full API is available sync and async versions. The only difference is that the async version returns promises. To use the sync version:

const git = require('gitopia')().sync

// example usage:
const commits = git.commits()

To use the async version:

const git = require('gitopia')()

// example usage:
git.commits(commits => console.log(commits))

Working Directory

By default, gitopia assumes the current working directory is part of the desired repository. To change this or make the working directory explicit, use the workdir option:

const git = require('gitopia')({ workdir: '/path/to/your/repo' ))

API

For simplicity, all examples use sync API.

• Get information about all commits: commits()
• Get all tags and their associated commit: tagsWithCommit() (array) or commitsByTag() (object map)
• Get all valid semver tags and their associated commit: semverTagsWithCommit() (array) or commitsBySemver() (object map)
• Determine if working directory or index is dirty: isDirty(). Note that untraced files, by default, do not indicate a dirty working directory. To change this, use strict option: isDirty({ strict: true }).
