CaptainHook is an easy to use and very flexible git hook library for php developers. It enables you to configure your git hook actions in a simple json file.
You can use CaptainHook to validate or prepare your commit messages, ensure code quality or run unit tests before you commit or push changes to git. You can automatically clear local caches or install the latest composer dependencies after pulling the latest changes.
CaptainHook makes it easy to share hooks within your team and even can make sure that everybody in your team activates the hooks locally.
You can run cli commands, use some built in validators, or write your own PHP classes that get executed by CaptainHook. For more information have a look at the documentation.
Install the CaptainHook PHAR using Phive or download the PHAR from the github release page.
phive install captainhook
Or use Composer to install CaptainHook.
composer require --dev captainhook/captainhook
After installing CaptainHook you can use the captainhook executable to create a configuration.
vendor/bin/captainhook configure
Now there should be a captainhook.json configuration file.
Now you have to activate the hooks by installing them to your local .git repository. To do so just run the following captainhook command.
vendor/bin/captainhook install
Have a look at this short installation video.
If you want to make sure your whole team uses the same hooks, and you want to make sure everybody has the
hooks installed you can add the following scripts
command to your composer.json
file.
{
"scripts": {
"post-autoload-dump": "vendor/bin/captainhook install -f -s"
}
}
Here's an example captainhook.json configuration file.
{
"commit-msg": {
"enabled": true,
"actions": [
{
"action": "\\CaptainHook\\App\\Hook\\Message\\Action\\Beams",
}
]
},
"pre-commit": {
"enabled": true,
"actions": [
{
"action": "phpunit"
},
{
"action": "phpcs --standard=psr2 src"
}
]
},
"pre-push": {
"enabled": false,
"actions": []
}
}
