Githooks

Githooks is a gem that creates post-commit hooks for your application – if you are using git, of course. ;) Currently, it is just creating a post-commit hook to a campfire room of your choosing. That’s all I need it for, for now.

How to Use

Install the gem: sudo gem install revans-githooks

Once installed, cd to the root of your project directory and do the following:

githooks project_name --login your_campfire_login --pass campfire_password --domain campfire_subdmain --room "campfire room name"

This is a pretty log command, so I’d suggest writing a bash script where you can put in the login, password, domain and room details and just pass the project name to githooks. Here is what I have in my ~/.bash_profile:

function campfire_hook {
  githooks $1 --login robo@facollective.com --pass password --domain facollective --room "War Room"
}

Then I can just do campfire_hook project_name.

That’s about it. I’m sure I’ll be adding more to this as we have the need. If you feel you need more hooks, fork it and submit patches. Cheers!
