- trees are a treat for treeeater
- use it to call git commands in Node
- it is written in CoffeeScript and is heavily using its sweet syntactic sugar
-
http://flattr.com - yes, you can give me money :P
- an asynchronous wrapper around git spawning commands
- use
git help to find out how to get things done
- specify command line options in an readable and easy way in Coffee Script
- some output is being parsed into objects which actually make some sense!
- provide a callback to get the whole output
git.version console.log
# git version 1.7.5.2
- or listen on item or data events to get it line-, item- or chunkwise
n = 0
buffer = git.log()
buffer.on 'item', (line) -> console.log "#{n += 1}:", line
buffer = git.cat 'package.json', 'HEAD^'
file = fs.createWriteStream("package.json.bak")
file.on 'open', -> buffer.pipe file
- put command line arguments as
key: value pairs or strings into your call
Git = require 'treeeater'
# an option on construction is default for all calls
git = new Git cwd: 'parrot'
# ~/parrot$ git log -1 --pretty=raw HEAD^^
log = git.log 1:null, pretty:'raw', 'HEAD^^'
log.on 'item', do_something_with_it
# change current working directory, which must exist
git.opts.cwd = 'dead'
# git init --bare -L .
git.init bare:null, L:'.'
- some functions are not named after git commands and provide some parsed
output
