A CLI to keep semantic git commits. With emoji support 😄 👍

Many projects got different git commit rules. It is hard to remember them all.

$ npm i -g semantic-git-commit-cli

or

$ yarn add global semantic-git-commit-cli

After installation it is available in your shell as:

$ semantic-git-commit

or even shorter:

$ sgc

Just create a .sgcrc in your project root or you can add everything in your package.json with the value sgc

You can even create a global config. Just go to your users home and create a .sgcrc. The global config will be triggered if no project configurations are present.

Options:

• body
• scope
• emoji
• types
• rules

Type: boolean

Default: true

Asks if more info (body) should be added. This will open your default editor.

Example:

{
  "body": false
}

Type: boolean

Default: false

Asks for the scope in parentheses of the commit.

Example:

{
  "scope": true
}

Type: boolean

Default: false

A boolean to enable emoji at the beginning of a commit message

Example:

{
  "emoji": true
}

Types will define your git commits. If types is not set in your own .sgcrc, the types of the global .sgcrc

Keys

• type - This will be your commit convention and will be your start of your commit - e.g.: Feat:
• description (optional) - The description to explain what your type is about
• emoji (optional) - An emoji which will be appended at the beginning of the commit (Emoji Cheat Sheet)

The .sgcrc:

{
    "types": [
      {
        "emoji": ":sparkles:",
        "type": "Feat:",
        "description": "Any description to describe the type"
      }
    ]
}

or the package.json:

{
    "name": "Your application name",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "sgc": {
        "types": [
            {
              "emoji": ":sparkles:",
              "type": "Feat:",
              "description": "Any description to describe the type"
            }
        ]
    }
}

• max-char
• min-char
• end-with-dot
