Simple [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) plugin that generates `VERSION` and `COMMITHASH` files during build based on a local [git](http://www.git-scm.com/) repository.
## Usage
Given a **webpack 5** project ([check below](#outdated-webpack) for **old webpack versions**), install it as a local development dependency:
```bash
npm install --save-dev git-revision-webpack-plugin
```
Then, simply configure it as a plugin in the webpack config:
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [new GitRevisionPlugin()],
}
```
It outputs a `VERSION` based on [git-describe](http://www.git-scm.com/docs/git-describe) such as:
```
v0.0.0-34-g7c16d8b
```
A `COMMITHASH` such as:
```
7c16d8b1abeced419c14eb9908baeb4229ac0542
```
And (optionally [when branch is enabled](#branch-false)) a `BRANCH` such as:
```
master
```
## Path Substitutions
It is also possible to use [path substitutions](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/output/#output-filename) on build to get the revision, version or branch as part of output paths.
- `[git-revision-version]`
- `[git-revision-hash]`
- `[git-revision-branch]` (only [when branch is enabled](#branch-false))
- `[git-revision-last-commit-datetime]`
Example:
```javascript
module.exports = {
output: {
publicPath: 'http://my-fancy-cdn.com/[git-revision-version]/',
filename: '[name]-[git-revision-hash].js',
},
}
```
## Plugin API
The `VERSION`, `COMMITHASH`, `LASTCOMMITDATETIME` and `BRANCH` are also exposed through a public API.
Example using the [DefinePlugin](https://webpack.js.org/plugins/define-plugin/#usage):
```javascript
const webpack = require('webpack')
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
const gitRevisionPlugin = new GitRevisionPlugin()
module.exports = {
plugins: [
gitRevisionPlugin,
new webpack.DefinePlugin({
VERSION: JSON.stringify(gitRevisionPlugin.version()),
COMMITHASH: JSON.stringify(gitRevisionPlugin.commithash()),
BRANCH: JSON.stringify(gitRevisionPlugin.branch()),
LASTCOMMITDATETIME: JSON.stringify(gitRevisionPlugin.lastcommitdatetime()),
}),
],
}
```
## Configuration
The plugin requires no configuration by default, but it is possible to configure it to support custom git workflows.
### `lightweightTags: false`
If you need [lightweight tags](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Tagging#_lightweight_tags) support, you may turn on `lightweightTags` option in this way:
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
lightweightTags: true,
}),
],
}
```
### `branch: false`
If you need branch name support, you may turn on `branch` option in this way:
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
branch: true,
}),
],
}
```
### `commithashCommand: 'rev-parse HEAD'`
To change the default `git` command used to read the value of `COMMITHASH`.
This configuration is not not meant to accept arbitrary user input and it is executed by the plugin without any sanitization.
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
commithashCommand: 'rev-list --max-count=1 --no-merges HEAD',
}),
],
}
```
### `versionCommand: 'describe --always'`
To change the default `git` command used to read the value of `VERSION`.
This configuration is not not meant to accept arbitrary user input and it is executed by the plugin without any sanitization.
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
versionCommand: 'describe --always --tags --dirty',
}),
],
}
```
### `branchCommand: 'rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD'`
To change the default `git` command used to read the value of `BRANCH`.
This configuration is not not meant to accept arbitrary user input and it is executed by the plugin without any sanitization.
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
branchCommand: 'rev-parse --symbolic-full-name HEAD',
}),
],
}
```
### `lastCommitDateTimeCommand: 'log -1 --format=%cI'`
To change the default `git` command used to read the value of `LASTCOMMITDATETIME`.
This configuration is not not meant to accept arbitrary user input and it is executed by the plugin without any sanitization.
```javascript
const { GitRevisionPlugin } = require('git-revision-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
plugins: [
new GitRevisionPlugin({
branchCommand: 'log -1 --format=%ci',
}),
],
}
```
## Outdated webpack
If your project is not running on Webpack 5, you will need older versions of this package.
### Webpack 4
```
npm install [email protected]
```
### Webpack 3 or older
```
npm install [email protected]
```
