NodeGit
-------
> Node bindings to the [libgit2](http://libgit2.github.com/) project.
[](https://travis-ci.org/nodegit/nodegit)
**Stable: 0.2.0**
Maintained by Tim Branyen [@tbranyen](http://twitter.com/tbranyen), Michael Robinson [@codeofinterest](http://twitter.com/codeofinterest), John Haley [@johnhaley81](http://twitter.com/johnhaley81), Max Korp [@maxkorp](http://twitter.com/MaximilianoKorp), and Nick Kallen [@nk](http://twitter.com/nk) with help from [awesome contributors](https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit/contributors)!
## API Documentation. ##
http://www.nodegit.org/
## Getting started. ##
NodeGit will work on most systems out-of-the-box without any native
dependencies.
``` bash
npm install nodegit
```
If you encounter problems while installing, you should try the Building from source instructions below.
## Building from source. ##
Minimum dependencies:
- [Python 2](https://www.python.org/)
If you wish to help contribute to nodegit it is useful to build locally.
``` bash
# Fetch this project.
git clone git://github.com/nodegit/nodegit.git
# Enter the repository.
cd nodegit
# Installs the template engine, run the code generation script, and build.
npm install
```
If you encounter errors, you most likely have not configured the dependencies correctly.
### Installing dependencies: ###
#### Mac OS X ####
- [Install XCode Command Line Tools](http://railsapps.github.io/xcode-command-line-tools.html)
#### Linux ####
Using APT in Ubuntu:
``` bash
sudo apt-get install build-essential
```
Using Pacman in Arch Linux:
``` bash
sudo pacman -S base-devel
```
#### Windows ####
- [Download and install Python](https://www.python.org/download/windows).
- [Download and install VS Express](http://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs#d-express-windows-desktop).
You may have to add a build flag to the installation process to successfully install. Try first without, if the build fails, try again with the flag.
*Allegedly the order in which you install Visual Studio could trigger this error.*
``` bash
npm install nodegit --msvs_version=2013
# Or whatever version you've installed.
```
## API examples. ##
### Cloning a repository and reading a file: ###
``` javascript
var clone = require("./").Clone.clone;
// Clone a given repository into a specific folder.
clone("https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit", "tmp", null)
// Look up this known commit.
.then(function(repo) {
// Use a known commit sha from this repository.
return repo.getCommit("59b20b8d5c6ff8d09518454d4dd8b7b30f095ab5");
})
// Look up a specific file within that commit.
.then(function(commit) {
return commit.getEntry("README.md");
})
// Get the blob contents from the file.
.then(function(entry) {
// Patch the blob to contain a reference to the entry.
return entry.getBlob().then(function(blob) {
blob.entry = entry;
return blob;
});
})
// Display information about the blob.
.then(function(blob) {
// Show the name, sha, and filesize in byes.
console.log(blob.entry.name() + blob.entry.sha() + blob.size() + "b");
// Show a spacer.
console.log(Array(72).join("=") + "\n\n");
// Show the entire file.
console.log(String(blob));
})
.catch(function(err) { console.log(err); });
```
### Emulating git log: ###
``` javascript
var open = require("nodegit").Repository.open;
// Open the repository directory.
open("tmp")
// Open the master branch.
.then(function(repo) {
return repo.getMasterCommit();
})
// Display information about commits on master.
.then(function(firstCommitOnMaster) {
// Create a new history event emitter.
var history = firstCommitOnMaster.history();
// Create a counter to only show up to 9 entries.
var count = 0;
// Listen for commit events from the history.
history.on("commit", function(commit) {
// Disregard commits past 9.
if (++count >= 9) {
return;
}
// Show the commit sha.
console.log("commit " + commit.sha());
// Store the author object.
var author = commit.author();
// Display author information.
console.log("Author:\t" + author.name() + " <", author.email() + ">");
// Show the commit date.
console.log("Date:\t" + commit.date());
// Give some space and show the message.
console.log("\n " + commit.message());
});
// Start emitting events.
history.start();
});
```
## Unit tests. ##
You will need to build locally before running the tests. See above.
``` bash
npm test
```
## Migrating from old versions. ##
The bump from 0.1.4 to 0.2.0 was a big one. Many things changed, see here:
https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit/compare/refs/tags/0.1.4...0.2.0
This update is wholly and entirely a breaking one, and older versions won't be
maintained. For the purpose of migration, perhaps the biggest point to make
is that async methods can now use promises, rather than just taking callbacks. Additionally, lots of method and property names have changed.
