giterator

git log as a JavaScript generator

Installation

npm install --save giterator

Usage

import { giterator } from 'giterator';

for await (const commit of giterator('/Users/foldleft/Dev/syncpack', {
  pageSize: 20,
  skipMerges: true,
  tokenNames: ['authorName', 'subject', 'refNames'],
})) {
  console.log(commit);
}

Our example would produce;

{
  authorName: 'Jamie Mason',
  subject: 'chore(license): update year',
  refNames: 'HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD'
}
{
  authorName: 'Jamie Mason',
  subject: 'chore(release): 9.8.4',
  refNames: 'tag: 9.8.4'
}
{
  authorName: 'Jamie Mason',
  subject: 'docs(site): mark up required/optional config',
  refNames: 'origin/dev, dev'
}
{
  authorName: 'Jamie Mason',
  subject: 'feat(semver): support resolving with lowest version',
