husky

Git hooks made easy

Husky can prevent bad commit, push and more 🐶 woof!

Install

npm install husky --save-dev

yarn add husky --dev

// Edit package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "precommit": "npm test",
    "prepush": "npm test",
    "...": "..."
  }
}

git commit -m "Keep calm and commit"

Existing hooks aren't replaced and you can use any Git hook.

If you're migrating from ghooks, simply run npm uninstall ghooks --save-dev && npm install husky --save-dev and edit package.json. Husky will automatically migrate ghooks hooks.

Tricks

Debug hooks easily

If you need to debug hooks, simply use npm run <script-name>. For example:

npm run precommit

Git GUI clients support

If you've installed Node using the standard installer, nvm or homebrew, Git hooks will be executed in GUI applications.

Working with multiple version of Node

If nvm is installed, husky will try to use the default/current installed Node version or use the project .nvmrc.

Tip to use the system-installed version of node, nvm provides a system alias

Accessing Git params

Git params can be found in GIT_PARAMS environment variable.

Setting a different log level

By default, husky will run scripts using --silent to make the output more readable. If you want to override this, simply pass a different log level to your scripts:

"precommit": "npm run some-script -q"

-q/--quiet is equivalent to --loglevel warn which is npm default log level.
