Usage Examples

$ npm install git-fish

$ gitfish config
Listener port? [8000]
Security token? [secret]
Hook endpoint? [script] /foo
Hook script? [CWD/script.js]
Hook branch filter?
Saved configuration to /home/jmervine/config.json

$ cat config.json
{
  "port": 8000,
  "token": "secret",
  "foo": {
    "script": "/home/jmervine/script.js"
  }
}

Configuration note:

script can be anything; ruby, bash, python, etc. It doesn't have to be a node script.

Real World Config Example

Important Note:

script path must absolute and the script must be executable.

{
  "port": 8001,
  "token": "shhh_do_not_tell_anyone",
  "prod": {
    "script": "/home/me/update_prod.sh",
    "branch": "master" // optional branch matcher
        // "branch" can also be an array of branches:
        // e.g. `[ "master", "develop" ]`
  },
  "dev": {
    "script": "/home/me/update_dev.sh",
    "branch": [ "release", "develop" ] // optional branch matcher
  }
}

Where /home/me/update_prod.sh is something like:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
cd /path/to/mysite

# For safty, you can stash any changes, although best practice says
# there shouldn't be any here.
# git stash

git checkout master
git pull

make restart

And your post commit hooks would be:

http://mysite:8001/prod?token=shhh_do_not_tell_anyone
http://mysite:8001/dev?token=shhh_do_not_tell_anyone
