Python implementation for Git Hooks (prepare-commit-msg and pre-push)

This is an implementation for Git Hooks made with Python.

IMPORTANT: To use the scripts it is necessary to have a version of Python 3 installed on your machine.

---

What was done?

The files prepare-commit-msg and pre-push (for more details about it, check the git hooks documentation) were modified to use Python.

prepare-commit-msg

For each commit the script is called. Basically there is a verification if the commit message is in the defined patterns. We set our patterns as:

• Needs to initiate with feat, chore, test or bug
• Needs to reference, at the end of the message, an open issue and marked with a "doing" label, like this: "(#4)"

Some examples:

git commit -m "feat: implements delete user function (#6)"

git commit -m "test: tests user class (#16)"

git commit -m "bug: fix the insert task bug (#22)"

Simple. Like. That. 😁

But, you can also define you own patterns, for sure. All you need to do is change the line 36:

regex = '^(feat|hotfix|chore|test):.* \(#[0-9]+\)$'

But, keep in mind that the rest of the code depends on the patterns.

pre-push

Before each push, the script makes some comments on the issue of each commit involved in the operation.

For each commit, a comment with author's name, date and time, changed files and the description of the commit is made in the correspondig issue.

Be like:

And, for each push, a comment with author's name, date and time and number of commits.

Be like:

How it works

First of all you need to create a github personal acces token to use it. Place it in the variables inside the scripts:

USERNAME = 'vitumenezes'
TOKEN = 'Token 4Tby&8202&89#rfwtInNSUUnby&82'

⚠️ Need to be like this: 'Token your_access_token'.

Then, just copy the python script to corresponding script inside .git/hooks/ where the example files that git offers are usually located.

⚠️ NOTE: remove the file extension for the script to work. Your file must be like prepare-commit-msg and not prepare-commit-msg.py or prepare-commit-msg.example.

That's it! Want to contribute?

• Make a fork of this repo;
• Create a branch with your feature: git checkout -b my-feature;
• Commit your changes: git commit -m 'feat: my new feature';
• Push your new branch: git push origin my-feature.

NOTE: as you can see, i didn't recommend the patterns with git hooks, it's up to you. If you want to use it, it's great for training 😃
