goji

Note

Commitizen-like tool for formatting commit messages using emojis written in go.

goji is an easy-to-use commit message formatting tool, inspired by Commitizen and cz-cli, that helps you create conventional commits with emojis with streamlined [git] commit process by providing a user-friendly TUI for selecting the type of change, scope, and description of your commit message..

? Select the type of change you are committing: (Use arrow keys)
❯ feature   ✨  Introducing new features.
  fix       🐛  Fixing a bug.
  docs      📚  Documentation change.
  refactor  🎨  Improve structure/format of the code.
  clean     🔥  Remove code or files.
? What is the scope of this change? (class or file name): (press [enter] to skip)

Features

• Interactive and Non-interactive CLI with sensible defaults for choosing commit types, scopes, and descriptions and signing off commits.
• Predefined commit types with corresponding emojis.
• Customizable commit types and scopes through a JSON configuration file.
• Supports Git out of the box

Install

Homebrew (macOs/Linux)

brew install muandane/tap/goji

Linux (or WSL)

VERSION=$(curl --silent "https://api.github.com/repos/muandane/goji/releases/latest" | jq .tag_name -r)
curl -Lso goji.tar.gz https://github.com/muandane/goji/releases/download/$VERSION/goji_${VERSION}_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
tar -xvzf goji.tar.gz
chmod +x ./goji
# optionnal
sudo mv ./goji /usr/local/bin/

Windows (winget)

winget install muandane.goji

Build locally

git clone https://github.com/muandane/goji.git && cd goji
go build -ldflags "-s -w -X goji/cmd.version=0.0.8"
mv goji /usr/local/bin
goji --version

Usage

Simply run goji in your terminal to start the interactive commit process:

If you don't want the interactive screen you can use the flags to construct a message:

goji --type feat --scope home --message "Add home page"

Check command

To check if a commit message is conventional run:

goji check

To use the check command, add the following to your pre-commit hook in your git repository:

- repo: https://github.com/muandane/goji
  rev: v0.0.8
  hooks:
  - id: goji-check
    name: goji check
    description: >
      Check whether the current commit message follows commiting rules. Allow empty commit messages by default, because they typically indicate to Git that the commit should be aborted.

Customization

By default goji comes ready to run out of the box and you can initialize a config file with commands. For now customization is in the works (?)

goji init --repo # Writes the config in the git repo's root
goji init --global # Writes the config to home directory

HOW TO

You can customize the .goji.json generated file to add or change the scopes, types and other parameters:

{
  "types": [
    //***
    {
      "emoji": "✨",
      "code": ":sparkles:",
      "description": "Introducing new features.",
      "name": "feat"
    },
    {
      "emoji": "🐛",
      "code": ":bug:",
      "description": "Fixing a bug.",
      "name": "fix"
    }
    //***
  ],
  "scopes": [
    "home",
    "accounts",
    "ci"
  ],
  "noemoji": false,
  "skipquestions": [],
  "subjectmaxlength": 50,
  "signoff": true
}

Only "Scopes" question can be skipped since it's optional according to the Commit Spec

Configuration options

Option	Type	Description
types	Array of objects	Types for the commit messages (emoji, code, description, name)
scopes	Array of strings	Optional scopes for the commit messages (you can auto-complete with ctrl+e)
noemoji	Boolean	Creates commit message with emojis in types
subjectmaxlength	Number	Maximum length for the description message
signoff	Boolean	Add a sign off to the end of the commit message
skipquestions	Array of strings	Skip prompting for these questions (Unimplemented)
