Go (golang) package for providing a means to handle git-log.

Installation

To install go-gitlog, simply run:

$ go get -u github.com/tsuyoshiwada/go-gitlog

Usage

It is the simplest example.

package main

import (
	"log"
	"github.com/tsuyoshiwada/go-gitlog"
)

func main() {
	// New gitlog
	git := gitlog.New(&gitlog.Config{
		Bin:  "/your/custom/git/bin", // default "git"
		Path: "/repo/path/to",        // default "."
	})

	// List git-log
	commits, err := git.Log(nil, nil)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}

	// Output
	for _, commit := range commits {
		fmt.Printf(
			"%s %s %s\n",
			commit.Hash.Short,
			commit.Author.Name,
			commit.Subject,
		)
	}
}

See godoc for API detail of Log 👍

Options

By using Params you can customize the log retrieval.

MergesOnly

Give the --merges option.

IgnoreMerges

Give the --no-merges option.

Reverse

Give the --reverse option.

Examples

$ git log <sha1|tag|ref>

Specification of revisionrange can be realized by giving a RevArgs interface.

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.Rev{"5e312d5"}, nil)

$ git log <sha1|tag|ref>..<sha1|tag|ref>

For double dot notation use RevRange.

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.RevRange{
	Old: "v0.1.7",
	New: "v1.2.3",
}, nil)

$ git log -n <n>

Use RevNumber to get the specified number of commits.

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.RevNumber{10}, nil)

$ git log --since <time> --until <time>

By using RevTime you can specify the range by time.

Since and Until:

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.RevTime{
	Since: time.Date(2018, 3, 4, 23, 0, 0, time.UTC),
	Until: time.Date(2018, 1, 2, 12, 0, 0, time.UTC),
}, nil)

Only since:

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.RevTime{
	Since: time.Date(2018, 1, 2, 12, 0, 0, time.UTC),
}, nil)

Only until:

commits, err := git.Log(&gitlog.RevTime{
	Until: time.Date(2018, 1, 2, 12, 0, 0, time.UTC),
}, nil)

How it works

Internally we use the git command to format it with the --pretty option of log and parse the standard output.
So, only local git repositories are eligible for acquisition.
