Whisky is the simplest, framework agnostic, CLI tool for managing and enforcing a php project's git hooks across an entire team.
Git hooks are a fantastic tool to ensure that code hitting version control satisfies your org's code quality standards. However, .git/hooks
is not included in your git tree. This makes it impractical to have all contributors to a repository use the same checks with the same settings.
Whisky's only dependency is php^8.1
.
You can install the package via composer:
composer require --dev projektgopher/whisky
./vendor/bin/whisky install
This is the recommended method, as every developer on your project will have access to the tool.
Whisky can be installed globally, however this means that any developer on your project will also need it installed globally if they want to use it.
composer global require projektgopher/whisky
whisky install
If Whisky is installed both globally, and locally, on a project the version that's run will depend on how the command is invoked.
The install
command will create a whisky.json
file in your project root:
// whisky.json
{
"disabled": [],
"hooks": {
"pre-commit": [
"./vendor/bin/pint --dirty"
],
"pre-push": [
"php artisan test"
]
}
}
For a complete list of supported git hooks, see the Git Documentation.
Warning all hooks are evaluated as-is in the terminal. Keep this in mind when committing anything involving changes to your
whisky.json
.
Adding or removing any hooks (not individual commands) to your whisky.json
file should be followed by ./vendor/bin/whisky update
to ensure that these changes are reflected in your .git/hooks
directory.
While we suggest leaving Whisky as an 'opt-in' tool, by adding a couple of Composer scripts we can ensure consistent git hooks for all project contributors. This will force everyone on the project to use Whisky:
// composer.json
// ...
"scripts": {
"post-install-cmd": [
"whisky update"
],
"post-update-cmd": [
"whisky update"
]
}
// ...
### Skipping Hooks
Sometimes you need to commit or push changes without running your git hooks,
like when handing off work to another computer. This can usually be done
using git's _native_ `--no-verify` flag.
```bash
git commit -m "wip" --no-verify
However, some git actions don't support this flag, like git merge --continue
.
In this case, running the following command will have the exact same effect.
./vendor/bin/whisky skip-once
Note by adding
alias whisky=./vendor/bin/whisky
to yourbash.rc
file, you can shorten the length of this command.
Adding a hook's name to the disabled
array in your whisky.json
will disable the hook from running.
This can be useful when building out a workflow that isn't ready for the rest of the team yet.
For anything more complicated than simple terminal commands it's recommended to create a
scripts
directory in your project root. This comes with the added benefit of allowing
you to run scripts written in any language.
// whisky.json
// ...
"pre-push": [
"composer lint",
"rustc ./scripts/complicated_thing.rs"
]
// ...
Note When doing this, make sure any scripts referenced are executable:
chmod +x ./scripts/*
# Run test suite
composer test
# Test hook without having to make a dummy commit
git hook run pre-commit
If you've installed Whisky both locally and globally, and your hooks are being run twice, try uninstalling whisky from your hooks for one of those installations.
# Remove global Whisky hooks, leaving the local ones,
# while keeping `whisky.json` in the project root.
whisky uninstall -n
Note Don't build the binary when contributing. The binary will be built when a release is tagged.
