Q Git

Build Status

Thin Q promise wrapper for Git.

About

Promise-based wrapper based on Q that provides an asynchronous interface to Git.

The motivation behind this project was to create a promise wrapper for Git to be used when scripting Travis-CI deployments.

Install

With npm do:

npm install git-q --save

Usage

var GitQ = require('git-q'),
  gitQ = new GitQ();

gitQ
  .setUserInfo()
  .writeGitCredentials()
  .setRemoteUrl('https://...')
  .fetch(true)
  .tag({ a: '1.0.1', m: 'Commit message associated with tag' })
  .pushTags()
  .catch(function(){
    // Handle any errors from any of the above steps
  })
  .done();

API

var gitQ = GitQ()

Initialise a GitQ wrapper object for Git.

gitQ.setUserInfo([name], [email])

Sets user name and email address globally to be available with every Git command to be used.

If no parameters are passed, name and email are fetched from the environment variables GIT_NAME and GIT_EMAIL respectively. These two environment variables are set by the Travis-CI build environment.GI

gitQ.writeGitCredentials([token])

Stores current user's credentials for the given repository token to disk. Method assumes that repository token always belongs to github.com.

gitQ.setRemoteUrl(url, [remoteName])

Sets a remote url against a remoteName which defaults to origin. This method runs the following Git command:

git remote set-url <remoteName> <url>

gitQ.fetch([tags])

Runs git fetch with the --tags option if tags is true.

// Fetches all branch heads and all commits.
git fetch

// Fetches all tags and commits. Will not update branch heads.
git fetch --tags

gitQ.tag(options)

Runs git tag. If options is an Object, method will assume it is a collection of annotated tags and append it to the git tag command after flattening the structure. If options is a string, command will use the latter and run it as a lightweight tag.

// Lightweight Tags
git tag v1.4-lw

// Annotated Tags
git tag -a v1.4 -m 'my version 1.4'

gitQ.pushTags()

Pushes tags to a repository by runningi the git command:

git push --tags
