JIRA Smart Commit

!tests

A Node.js git hook script to prefix commits automatically with the JIRA ticket, based on a branch name.

Usage

$3

1. Install Husky in your project to configure Git hooks easily.

``bash
npm install --save-dev husky
npx husky init
`

2. Install this package in your project:

`bash
npm install --save-dev jira-smart-commit
`

3. Configure scripts in package.json. The script expects his first argument to be the JIRA tag of the project.

`bash


.husky/commit-msg


npx jira-smart-commit YOUR_JIRA_ISSUE_KEY
`

Alternatively: use a regex to detect the Jira ISSUE_KEY in your branch.

- TAG_MATCHER - regular expression
- TAG_MATCH_INDEX - match index

Example: if your branch names looke like feature/JRA-1234/some-description template

`bash


.husky/commit-msg


TAG_MATCHER=\"^[^/]+/(JRA-[0-9]+)\" TAG_MATCH_INDEX=1 npx jira-smart-commit
`

4. Commit with git like usual. If the branch was prefixed with a JIRA tag, your commit message will get a Jira prefix added with
the same tag.

`
Branch: JRA-411-husky-git-hooks
Commit message: "Add git hooks to project" → "JRA-411 Add git hooks to project"
