[Command] Debug

[ctsstc]

I would like to know what version of node and hackbot are currently running.

May have some overlap with #62

There's already a version command :0

I feel like I already wrote something about this, but either I'm not finding where I hid it or I forgot to actually save/comment it (looks like I never commented it D: N000000 T-T).

It would be nice to see the SHA that the bot is running. I found some awesome libs previously to pull the SHA out of of the git files, but unfortunately heroku will remove those files, but it seems that heroku has some options to grab this information.

It could be nice to show this in the version command as well as #111 for the bot status message - maybe only on staging?

Research

Super bummed I lost the previous research. Most of them were npm packages that were really cool, but didn't look like they were going to work.

  • SOURCE_VERSION
  • Not 100% certain if this is always around or only in the build phase 🤔

Digging through my chrome history it looks like I came across these two packages

• ⭐ https://www.npmjs.com/package/git-repo-info
  • This one looked very promising
  • More recent updates
  • Good amount of people using it
  • Doesn't require git on the system
    • It parses the git directory (dang, but awesome)
  • Looked like a nice interface
• https://www.npmjs.com/package/git-repo-version
• https://www.npmjs.com/package/git-last-commit (not too much use or upkeep)
