## 🔧 Installation
### Prerequisites
- Node.js 14.0.0 or higher
- Git repository
- OpenAI API key
### Install via npm
```bash
npm install -g git-axiom
```
### Local Development Setup
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Abdiev003/git-axiom.git
cd git-axiom
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Make executable
chmod +x index.js
# Link for global usage (optional)
npm link
```
## 🔑 Setup
### 1. Get OpenAI API Key
1. Visit [OpenAI Platform](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys)
2. Create a new API key
3. Copy your API key
### 2. Set Environment Variable
```bash
# Add to your shell profile (.bashrc, .zshrc, etc.)
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key-here"
# Or set for current session
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
```
### 3. Initialize Git Axiom
```bash
git-axiom init
```
## 🚀 Usage
### Basic Workflow
#### For Commit Messages:
1. **Stage your changes**
```bash
git add .
# or
git add specific-file.js
```
2. **Generate AI commit message**
```bash
git-axiom commit
```
3. **Review and confirm**
The tool will:
- Analyze your staged changes
- Generate a professional commit message
- Show you the message for approval
- Commit automatically if you approve
#### For Branch Naming:
1. **Make your changes** (don't stage yet)
```bash
# Edit your files
vim src/auth.js
```
2. **Generate AI branch name**
```bash
git-axiom branch
# or specify branch type
git-axiom branch --type feature
```
3. **Review and create**
The tool will:
- Analyze your current changes
- Generate a descriptive branch name
- Show you the suggested name
- Create and switch to the branch if approved
### Example Sessions
#### Commit Message Generation
```bash
$ git add src/auth.js
$ git-axiom commit
⠋ Analyzing staged files...
⠋ Generating commit message with AI...
✅ Commit message generated!
📝 Generated commit message:
"feat(auth): add user authentication middleware"
? Do you want to proceed with this commit message? (Y/n)
⠋ Committing changes...
✅ Commit successful!
✨ Successfully committed with message: "feat(auth): add user authentication middleware"
```
#### Branch Name Generation ✨ **NEW**
```bash
$ # After making changes to authentication system
$ git-axiom branch --type feature
⠋ Analyzing your changes...
⠋ Generating branch name with AI...
✅ Branch name generated!
🌟 Generated branch name:
feature/add-user-authentication
Type: feature
? Do you want to create this branch and switch to it? (Y/n)
⠋ Creating new branch...
✅ Branch created successfully!
✨ Successfully created and switched to branch: "feature/add-user-authentication"
💡 You can now make your changes and use "git-axiom commit" when ready!
```
## 📋 Commands
### `git-axiom commit`
Generate AI-powered commit messages for staged changes.
```bash
git-axiom commit
```
**What it does:**
1. Analyzes your staged Git changes
2. Sends the diff to OpenAI for analysis
3. Generates a conventional commit message
4. Asks for your confirmation
5. Commits the changes if approved
### `git-axiom init`
Initialize Git Axiom and check setup.
```bash
git-axiom init
```
### `git-axiom --help`
Show help information and available commands.
```bash
git-axiom --help
# or
git-axiom -h
```
## 🎯 Conventional Commits
Axiom automatically generates commit messages following the [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) specification:
```
():
```
### Common Types:
- `feat`: New features
- `fix`: Bug fixes
- `docs`: Documentation changes
- `style`: Code style changes (formatting, etc.)
- `refactor`: Code refactoring
- `test`: Adding or updating tests
- `chore`: Maintenance tasks
### Examples:
```bash
feat(auth): add OAuth2 authentication
fix(api): resolve user data validation error
docs(readme): update installation instructions
refactor(utils): simplify helper functions
```
## 🛠️ Configuration
### Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Default |
|----------|-------------|---------|
| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | Your OpenAI API key (required) | - |
| `AI_MODEL` | OpenAI model to use | `gpt-3.5-turbo` |
| `AI_BASE_URL` | Custom API endpoint | `https://api.openai.com/v1` |
### Custom Configuration Example
```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
```
## 🐛 Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**"No staged changes found"**
```bash
# Solution: Stage your changes first
git add .
```
**"OpenAI API key not found"**
```bash
# Solution: Set your API key
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key-here"
```
**"Not a git repository"**
```bash
# Solution: Make sure you're in a Git repository
git init
```
**"Rate limit exceeded"**
```bash
# Solution: Wait a moment and try again
# Or upgrade your OpenAI plan
```
**"The changes are too large to analyze"**
```bash
# Solution: Commit smaller chunks of changes
git add specific-file.js
git-axiom commit
# Or stage specific lines/hunks
git add -p
git-axiom commit
```
**"Maximum context length exceeded"**
```bash
# Solution: The tool automatically handles large diffs
# But you can also commit changes in smaller parts
git add src/
git-axiom commit
git add tests/
git-axiom commit
```
**"No changes found to analyze" (for branch command)**
```bash
# Solution: Make some changes to your files first
vim src/example.js
git-axiom branch
```
**"Branch already exists"**
```bash
# Solution: Use a different branch type or delete existing branch
git branch -D feature/existing-branch
git-axiom branch --type fix
```
