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 <[email protected]>
39 Gregorio Heaney <[email protected]>
55 Miller Reichel <[email protected]>
70 Mervin Graham <[email protected]>
99 Hallie Paucek <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>
Gregorio Heaney <[email protected]>
Miller Reichel <[email protected]>
Mervin Graham <[email protected]>
Hallie Paucek <[email protected]>
*/Or you can use it via the CLI:
$ shelljs-authors
Andrew Powlowski <[email protected]>
Gregorio Heaney <[email protected]>
Miller Reichel <[email protected]>
Mervin Graham <[email protected]>
Hallie Paucek <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>
Mervin Graham <[email protected]>
Miller Reichel <[email protected]>
Gregorio Heaney <[email protected]>
Andrew Powlowski <[email protected]>
*/$ shelljs-authors -n
Hallie Paucek <[email protected]>
Mervin Graham <[email protected]>
Miller Reichel <[email protected]>
Gregorio Heaney <[email protected]>
Andrew Powlowski <[email protected]>
