It supports direct calls corresponding to Git command line operations.\n2. It includes wrapper classes for primary Git actions, with straightforward and easy-to-use names.\n3. It is extendable and customizable using Artificial Intelligence, adhering to the AI-XOSS (AI-Extendable Open Source Software) pattern. More details on this will follow.\n\n## Installation\n\n### Java \n\nSympleGit requires Java version 11 or newer.\n\n### Maven\n\n```xml\n\u003cgroupId\u003ecom.symplegit\u003c/groupId\u003e\n\u003cartifactId\u003esymplegit\u003c/artifactId\u003e\n\u003cversion\u003e1.0\u003c/version\u003e\n```\n\n## Why Choose SympleGit Over JGit?\n\n[JGit](https://www.eclipse.org/jgit/) is an excellent Java implementation of Git, richly featured and well-regarded for its clean and fluent API.\n\nDesigned primarily for complete Git support within Eclipse, JGit implements all the sophisticated actions required by end-users developing Java projects.\n\nFor those looking to develop a Java editor and integrate Git management, [JGit is a recommended choice](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.eclipse.jgit/org.eclipse.jgit).\n\nHowever, JGit's API comes with a learning curve and lacks direct, one-to-one support for CLI actions. Therefore, SympleGit is likely to be a more straightforward option for simple Git integration in many Java projects, particularly those utilizing basic Git functionalities. Let's delve into the details!\n\n------\n\n## Choosing SympleGit Over JGit: Understanding the Advantages\n\n### Support for CLI Git Calls\n\nUsing JGit for staging files typically requires utilizing the API:\n\n```java\n// Staging files with JGIT\n\nfinal File localPath;\n\n// Prepare a new test-repository. \n// This uses https://github.com/centic9/jgit-cookbook tutorial\n\ntry (Repository repository = CookbookHelper.createNewRepository()) {\n    localPath = repository.getWorkTree();\n\n    try (Git git = new Git(repository)) {\n \t\t// Files existence tests skipped for the sake of clarity\n        \n        // run the add-call\n        git.add()\n            .addFilepattern(\"testfile\")\n\t\t\t.addFilepattern(\"testFile2\")\n            .call();\n\n        System.out.println(\"Added file \" + myFile + \" to repository at \" + repository.getDirectory());\n    }\n}\n```\n\nIn contrast, [SympleGit](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/javadoc) offers two straightforward options:\n\n- Direct invocation using the [GitCommander](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/javadoc/com/symplegit/api/GitCommander.html) class with command-line interface (CLI) syntax, such as: `git add testfile`.\n- Utilizing the Facilitator API with the [GitAdder](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/javadoc/com/symplegit/api/facilitator/GitAdd.html) class.\n\nThe code for direct invocation is simpler:\n\n```java\n// Staging files with SympleGit using GitCommander\nString repoDirectoryPath = \"/path/to/my/git/repository\";\n\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n    .setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n    .build();\n\n// Files existence tests skipped for the sake of clarity\n\nGitCommander gitCommander = sympleGit.gitCommander();\n// Well, git add testfile testFile2 ;-)\ngitCommander.executeGitCommand(\"git\", \"add\", \"testFile\", \"testFile2\"); \n```\n\nAlternatively, you can use the `GitAdder` class:\n\n```java\n// Staging files with SympleGit using GitAdder\nString repoDirectoryPath = \"/path/to/my/git/repository\";\n\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n            .setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n            .build();\n\nGitAdder gitAdder = new GitAdder(sympleGit);\ngitAdder.add(\"testFile\", \"testFile2\");\n```\n\nThe one-to-one correspondence with `GitCommander` offers significant advantages:\n\n- It simplifies the process for those not well-versed in Git, allowing them to execute necessary Git commands without errors or spending time searching for the correct API parameters. This makes it easier for Git experts to assist non-experts in implementing accurate Git commands. Conversely, it's also convenient for Git experts who are less familiar with Java to integrate Git calls into a Java workflow.\n- Given Git's complexity, the ability to directly use CLI commands in Java enables users to execute complex or uncommon commands without the need to program every option in the API. An example is using detailed Git log commands like `git log --graph --abbrev-commit --decorate --date=relative --all --pretty=format:'%h - %ar | %s (%an)%d' --max-count=10`.\n\n### Straightforward Git Implementation\n\nIf you're not developing a Java Editor, a more straightforward Git implementation that covers all the basic commands could be easier to use.\n\nAs a Java developer, a common scenario involves automatically fixing code in a repository after certain operations. This was our primary motivation behind developing SympleGit. \n\nOur goal was simple: to provide an uncomplicated Git implementation that allows for the creation and pushing of new branches after modifying source code. A typical use case, for example, would be replacing all `Statement` instances with `PreparedStatement` for enhanced SQL Injection protection. You can learn more about this aspect of security at [Sqlephant](https://www.sqlephant.com/product/#sqli).\n\n## The GitCommander API\n\nThe [GitCommander](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/javadoc/com/symplegit/api/GitCommander.html) API is versatile, allowing the execution of any Git command regardless of the command's complexity or the size of its output.\n\n### Short Output\n\nFor standard operations, `GitCommander` efficiently handles the command execution and retrieves the results directly.\n\n```java\n// List all branches of a repo and print them on console\nString repoDirectoryPath = \"/path/to/my/git/repository\";\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n    .setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n    .build();\n\nGitCommander gitCommander = sympleGit.gitCommander();\ngitCommander.executeGitCommand(\"git\", \"branch\", \"-a\");\n\nif (! gitCommander.isResponseOk()) {\n    System.out.println(\"An Error Occured: \" + gitCommander.getProcessError());\n    return;\n}\n\n// OK, display branches on console\nString[] branches = gitCommander.getProcessOutput().split(\"\\n\");\nfor (String branch : branches) {\n    System.out.println(branch);\n}\n```\n\n### Large Output \n\nIn cases involving more extensive data, such as full commit messages and metadata for each commit in large repositories, `GitCommander` employs `InputStream` to retrieve the output. This approach ensures that even with ~~infinite~~ substantial amounts of data, `GitCommander` can efficiently process.\n\n```java\n// List full commit messages and metadata for each commit, which can be quite substantial \n// for large repositories.\nString repoDirectoryPath = \"/path/to/my/git/repository\";\n\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n\t.setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n\t.build();\n\nGitCommander gitCommander = sympleGit.gitCommander();\ngitCommander.executeGitCommand(\"git\", \"--no-pager\", \"log\");\n\nif (!gitCommander.isResponseOk()) {\n    System.out.println(\"An Error occured: \" + gitCommander.getProcessError());\n    return;\n}\n\n// It's always cautious to test the output\nif (gitCommander.getSize() \u003c= 1 * 1024 * 1024) {\n    // Small output size: use String\n    String[] lines = gitCommander.getProcessOutput().split(\"\\n\");\n    for (String line : lines) {\n\t    System.out.println(line);\n    }\n} else {\n    // Large output size: use an InputStream\n    try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(\n\t    new InputStreamReader(gitCommander.getProcessOutputAsInputStream()));) {\n        String line;\n        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {\n            System.out.println(line);\n        }\n    }\n}\n```\n\n### Setting a Timeout\n\nSympleGit enables setting a timeout for the Git process with `Builder.setTimeout`: \n\n```java\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n\t.setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n\t.setTimeout(300, TimeUnit.SECONDS) // The process will be terminated after 300 seconds\n\t.build();\n```\n\nThe Git process is executed within a thread using `java.util.concurrent.Future`, enabling controlled termination of operations. However, it's important to note that while this stops the process, the thread itself may continue running until it reaches a natural stopping point.\n\nWhen the timeout is reached, GitCommander (or the Facilitator API) throws an unchecked exception, [UncheckedTimeoutException](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/javadoc/com/symplegit/api/exception/UncheckedTimeoutException.html). \n\n### Releasing Resources by Closing the SympleGit Instance\n\nIt's a recommended practice to call the `close` method on the SympleGit instance to ensure the cleanup of temporary files. SympleGit is designed to be `AutoCloseable`.\n\n## The Facilitator API\n\nThe Facilitator API consists of a suite of classes designed to encapsulate the `GitCommander`, each tailored to specific types of Git operations. This approach streamlines the process of executing various Git commands by providing specialized, easy-to-use wrappers.\n\n### API List\n\n| Class Name      | Purpose                                                |\n| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |\n| GitAdd          | Manages the staging area for changes.                  |\n| GitBranchModify | Handles branch-related operations in write mode.       |\n| GitBranchRead   | Manages branch-related operations in read mode.        |\n| GitCommit       | Facilitates the process of making commits.             |\n| GitDiff         | Compares and tracks changes in the repository.         |\n| GitMerge        | Handles merging of branches.                           |\n| GitRemote       | Manages remote repositories and tracks changes.        |\n| GitRepo         | Provides functionality for repository-wide operations. |\n| GitTag          | Manages tagging operations in the repository.          |\n| GitVersion      | Retrieves information about the installed Git version. |\n\n### API Usage\n\nUtilizing the Facilitator API is straightforward. Refer to the [Javadoc](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/javadoc/com/symplegit/api/facilitator/package-summary.html) for detailed documentation.\n\n```java\n// Staging Files \u0026 Committing with SympleGit using GitAdd \u0026 GitCommit\nString repoDirectoryPath = \"/path/to/my/git/repository\";\n\n// Create a SympleGit instance\nfinal SympleGit sympleGit = SympleGit.custom()\n            .setDirectory(repoDirectoryPath)\n            .setTimeout(5, TimeUnit.MINUTES)\n            .build();\n\n// Create a GitAdd instance to manage staging\nGitAdd gitAdd = new GitAdd(sympleGit);\ngitAdd.add(\"testFile1\", \"testFile2\");\n\n// Create a GitCommit instance for making commits\nGitCommit gitCommit = new GitCommit(sympleGit);\ngitCommit.commitChanges(\"Modified test files\");\n\n// It's advisable to check the result of the commit operation:\nif (!gitCommit.isResponseOk()) {\n    System.out.println(\"An Error occurred: \" + gitCommit.getError());\n    if (gitCommit.getException() != null) {\n        System.out.println(\"An Exception has been raised: \" + gitCommit.getError());\n    }\n    return;\n}\n\nSystem.out.println(\"Added test files to the Git repository\");\n\n```\n\n## SympleGit and Artificial Intelligence\n\n### Using AI (GPT-4) to Generate the Facilitator API\n\nAll classes in the Facilitator API were generated using GPT-4 and have not been manually updated since, with the following exceptions:\n\n1. Enhancing Javadoc Documentation and Improving code formatting.\n2. The `getStagedDiffAsStream()` method in `GitDiff` was added manually due to the possibility of the command returning a large volume of data.\n\nThe generation process for these classes utilized a single, parameterized prompt. This prompt included three specific parameters:\n\n- `${0}`: Represents the [class name].\n- `${1}`: A list of method names, each potentially with self-descriptive parameters, separated by commas.\n- `${2}`: The intended purpose of the class.\n\nMoreover, the prompt included source code from SympleGit, which enabled GPT-4 to efficiently produce contextually relevant new code. (Note: Only GPT-4 is supported; the prompt will *not work correctly with GPT-3.5* and has not been test with other AI providers.)\n\nFor illustration purposes, the template below was employed to generate the `GitRepo` class. To keep it simple, the actual source code of the referenced classes has been omitted from this prompt (full prompt [URL](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/templates/facilitator_prompt_template.txt)):\n\n```bash\nYou are a Java expert and a Git expert, world-class.\n\nI will pass you 4 Java classes:\n\n- SympleGit: a class that is the main point of entry, and allows to get GitCommander with SympleGit.getCommander()\n- GitCommander: a class that allows passing Git commands and getting output and errors.\n- GitWrapper: an interface for Git Wrapper classes \n- GitBranchExample: a simplified example of a wrapper class that does an only update and only a read Git operation.\n\nThese classes will be used as a guideline for building a new Wrapper class.\nI want you to write following these guidelines a ${0} wrapped class that will have these methods:\n\n${1} \n\nin order to wrap these Git operations: ${2}\n\nThe values of ${0}, ${1}, and ${2} are at the end of this prompt.\n\nAdd a \"@author GPT-4\" at first Javadoc.\nPlease include clean \u0026 professional Javadoc in the generated class.\n\nPlease make sure to use Git commands with the options that do not use a pager or an editor. \n(Remember that, if required, \"--no-pager\" option must follow immediately \"git\" command.)\n\nHere are the 4 classes:\n\n[content of SympleGit.java]\n[content of GitCommander.java]\n[content of GitWrapper.java]\n[content of GitBranchExample.java]\n\n${0}=GitRepo\n${1}=Methods: cloneRepository(repoUrl), initializeRepository(), getRepositoryStatus(), addRemote(name, url), removeRemote(name)\n${2}=For repository-wide operations.\n```\n\nThe `GitBranchExample` serves as a 'generic' example within the Facilitator classes and is the sole class manually written to guide the volatile and session \"training\" of GPT-4 for our needs. \n\nThis template was then applied to all other classes, with modifications limited to the values of the three sub cited parameters:\n\n```bash\n${0}=GitAdd\n${1}=addAll(), add(List\u003cString\u003e files), add(List\u003cFile\u003e files)\n${2}=Git add operations.\n \n${0}=GitCommit\n${1}=Methods: commitChanges(message), amendCommit(), getCommitHistory(), getCommitDetails(commitHash)\n${2}=To handle commits.\n\n${0}=GitDiff\n${1}=Methods: getDiff(commitHash1, commitHash2), getStagedDiff(), getFileDiff(filePath)\n${2}=To compare changes.\n\n${0}=GitMerge\n${1}=Methods: mergeBranches(targetBranch, sourceBranch), abortMerge(), getMergeStatus()\n${2}=For merging branches.\n\n${0}=GitRemote\n${1}=Methods: fetchRemote(remoteName), pushChanges(remoteName, branchName), pullChanges(remoteName, branchName), listRemotes()\n${2}=For operations on remote repositories.\n\n${0}=GitRepo\n${1}=Methods: cloneRepository(repoUrl), initializeRepository(), getRepositoryStatus(), addRemote(name, url), removeRemote(name)\n${2}=For repository-wide operations.\n\n${0}=GitTag\n${1}=Methods: createTag(tagName, commitHash), deleteTag(tagName), listTags()\n${2}=For tagging operations.\n\n${0}=GitVersion\n${1}=getVersion()\n${2}=Get Git version.\n```\n\n### Using GPT-4 to Generate the Facilitator API Test Classes\n\nThis approach also extends to all unit tests, which were similarly produced by GPT-4:\n\n```Bash\nYou are a Java expert and a Git expert, world-class.\n\nPlease write a complete unit test class for the following ${0} Java class.\nThe value ${0} is at the end of this prompt.\n\nUse this Java line to get the repository File:\nFile repoDir = GitTestUtils.createIfNotTexistsTemporaryGitRepo();\nThe class GitTestUtils and the createIfNotTexistsTemporaryGitRepo method already exist, do not create them.\n        \nAs the repoDir is real and exists as a Git repo, do not use mocking in the code, use only real calls.      \n\n${0}=GitRepo\n```\n\nSee the [source code tests](https://github.com/kawansoft/SympleGit-Java/tree/master/src/test/java/com/symplegit/test/util) for more info.\n\n### The SympleGit AI Code Generation Prompt\n\nThe prompt used for generating code with SympleGit is accessible at the following link: [GitHub SympleGit Prompt Template](https://www.symplegit.com/rest/soft/v1.0/templates/facilitator_prompt_template.txt).\n\n## Extending SympleGit Facilitator API using a Development Pattern (AI-XOSS)\n\n### How to Extend the SympleGit Facilitator API\n\nCurious about what's next? The SympleGit open source software can now be effortlessly extended by simply submitting a prompt to GPT-4, accompanied by the parameters for any new class you aim to create.\n\nFor instance, if you want to manage Git configurations, you can resubmit the prompt template with the following three parameter values:\n\n```bash\n${0}=GitConfig\n${1}=Methods: getUserConfig(), setUserConfig(userName, userEmail), getGlobalConfig(), setGlobalConfig(configKey, configValue)\n${2}=For managing Git configurations.\n```\n\nThis approach of developing open source code with AI, utilizing parametrized templates, is termed \"AI-Extendable Open Source Software\" or AI-XOSS.\n\n### The AI-XOSS Pattern\n\nAI-XOSS is a software development pattern that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities into open-source software projects. This approach allows users, even those with limited or zero AI knowledge, to enhance software using AI-assisted tools.\n\nThe AI-XOSS pattern combines AI technologies with open-source development principles, resulting in software that is both adaptive and user-friendly. A key aspect of AI-XOSS is its user-centric design, enabling users to expand software capabilities through AI.\n\nThe primary objective of the AI-XOSS pattern is to encourage open-source developers to publish software that is extendable using AI, without requiring users to have any AI expertise, except for knowing how to submit a prompt to a language model like GPT-4.\n\nUtilizing the AI-XOSS pattern offers numerous advantages for both open-source developers and their community of users/developers:\n\n1. Open-source software authors can release products that may not include every anticipated feature initially, reducing the time to market.\n2. Users don't need to request pull requests or wait for the next version; they can extend the software for their specific needs without traditional programming.\n3. It fosters a collaborative ecosystem where users contribute to the software’s evolution, potentially leading to more innovative and diverse functionalities.\n4. The pattern can reduce the overall development burden on the core team, as users can independently develop extensions and customizations.\n5. It democratizes software development, enabling a wider range of contributors to participate in the software creation process.\n6. AI-XOSS can lead to faster iteration and improvement of software, as AI-generated solutions can be quickly tested and refined.\n7. This approach can potentially increase the software's adaptability to different use cases and environments, enhancing its versatility and appeal.\n8. AI-XOSS may attract a broader user base, as the ease of customization and extension can appeal to both technical and non-technical users.\n\n\n\n-----------------\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkawansoft%2Fsymplegit-java","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fkawansoft%2Fsymplegit-java","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkawansoft%2Fsymplegit-java/lists"}
