A ShellJS plugin for generating a nicely formatted list of authors.
Let's assume that we're inside a git repo, and the output of git shortlog -se
gives us something like:
24 Andrew Powlowski <Andrew_Powlowski@yahoo.com>
39 Gregorio Heaney <Gregorio.Heaney43@yahoo.com>
55 Miller Reichel <Miller_Reichel@yahoo.com>
70 Mervin Graham <Mervin69@yahoo.com>
99 Hallie Paucek <Hallie.Paucek@yahoo.com>
We want to generate a nicely formatted list of authors sorted alphabetically by author name. There are two ways to do that with this module, first you can use it as a ShellJS plugin:
const shell = require('shelljs')
require('shelljs-plugin-authors')
const authors = shell.authors()
shell.echo(authors.stdout)
/*
Andrew Powlowski <Andrew_Powlowski@yahoo.com>
Gregorio Heaney <Gregorio.Heaney43@yahoo.com>
Miller Reichel <Miller_Reichel@yahoo.com>
Mervin Graham <Mervin69@yahoo.com>
Hallie Paucek <Hallie.Paucek@yahoo.com>
*/
Or you can use it via the CLI:
$ shelljs-authors
Andrew Powlowski <Andrew_Powlowski@yahoo.com>
Gregorio Heaney <Gregorio.Heaney43@yahoo.com>
Miller Reichel <Miller_Reichel@yahoo.com>
Mervin Graham <Mervin69@yahoo.com>
Hallie Paucek <Hallie.Paucek@yahoo.com>
If you'd prefer the list be sorted by number of commits per author, pass the -n
option:
const shell = require('shelljs')
require('shelljs-plugin-authors')
const authors = shell.authors('-n')
shell.echo(authors.stdout)
/*
Hallie Paucek <Hallie.Paucek@yahoo.com>
Mervin Graham <Mervin69@yahoo.com>
Miller Reichel <Miller_Reichel@yahoo.com>
Gregorio Heaney <Gregorio.Heaney43@yahoo.com>
Andrew Powlowski <Andrew_Powlowski@yahoo.com>
*/
$ shelljs-authors -n
Hallie Paucek <Hallie.Paucek@yahoo.com>
Mervin Graham <Mervin69@yahoo.com>
Miller Reichel <Miller_Reichel@yahoo.com>
Gregorio Heaney <Gregorio.Heaney43@yahoo.com>
Andrew Powlowski <Andrew_Powlowski@yahoo.com>
