## 'pre-commit' ("replaces" precommit)
|
|
|
|
### Introduction
|
|
|
|
[`pre-commit`](https://pre-commit.org) is a framework for managing and
|
|
maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks.
|
|
|
|
"pre-commit hooks" integrate with `git` and are run when you perform a
|
|
`git commit` for instance.
|
|
|
|
Historically there was `precommit` for Dolibarr which you can find in this
|
|
directory. That script runs `phplint`, `phpcs` and `phpcbf` upon commit.
|
|
|
|
`pre-commit` is not specific to Dolibarr and is deployed on many projects -
|
|
mostly Python projects, but it is applicable to most (or *all*) code and
|
|
documentation development.
|
|
|
|
You can find documentation at https://pre-commit.com/ .
|
|
|
|
Now you can use `pre-commit` which uses the configuration found at the root of
|
|
the project: `pre-commit-config.yaml`.
|
|
|
|
### How to
|
|
|
|
1. Install `pre-commit`.\
|
|
If you do not have python installed, install
|
|
[python](https://www.python.org) first.\
|
|
If you do not have
|
|
[`pip`](https://pypi.org/project/pip), install that as well.\\
|
|
|
|
Then you can install pre-commit: `python -m pip install pre-commit`.
|
|
|
|
1. In you local git clone of the project, run `pre-commit install`. That will
|
|
add the hooks.
|
|
|
|
### Tips
|
|
|
|
After installing `pre-commit` onto your local git clone, pre-commit will run
|
|
on every commit.
|
|
|
|
When it finds some issue, the git commit will be aborted, so you can fix it,
|
|
or verify it.
|
|
|
|
The tools run by `pre-commit` may modify your code: format PHP code
|
|
(`phpcbf`), fix line endings, end of files, etc.
|
|
|
|
They may also alert about potential issues: syntax errors, spelling errors,
|
|
code quality, an execute bit that was (not) set in the git repository, etc.
|
|
|
|
One way to use it is this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd PROJECT_DIR
|
|
pre-commit install # Only needed once
|
|
# Repeat until success.
|
|
git commit -a -m "My message"
|
|
# `pre-commit` is run and reports
|
|
# Check the results, make fixes, and re-commit (=repeat above line).
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In some cases you may want to commit despite the changes.\
|
|
You can just add
|
|
`--no-verify` to your git command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git commit -a -m "My message" --no-verify
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to skip certain checks for whatever reason, you can set the SKIP
|
|
environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
SKIP=no-commit-to-branch git commit -a -m "My message"
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
export SKIP=no-commit-to-branch # In your .bashrc or session.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is much more you can do with pre-commit, check out its
|
|
[documentation](https://pre-commit.com).
|
|
|
|
Now your commit is less likely to fail in the Continuous Intagration (CI) run
|
|
on github.\
|
|
CI also runs pre-commit to help maintain code quality.
