The Produgit CLI tool offers various commands for analyzing, reporting, and visualizing your git repositories.

Requirements

Install

go install github.com/christian-gama/produgit@latest

Available Commands

Command	Description
anomaly	Check what commits have a quantity of lines that may be considered an anomaly.
config	Manage the produgit configuration.
list	List general information like authors or repositories.
plot	Plot the data from the report command.
report	Generate a report of your produgit using a specialized git log.

Report

Generate a comprehensive report of your git repositories. This command lets you select specific directories, exclude patterns or directories, and even suppress the output for a quiet run. Several paths and extensions are excluded by default, such as node_modules, package-lock.json, etc. These paths can be edited any time using the git config edit command.

Flag/Option	Short	Default Value	Description
--dir	-d		Directories to include in the report.
--output	-o		Output file.
--exclude	-e		Patterns or directories to exclude from the report.
--quiet	-q		Quiet mode. Suppresses output.

Example:

produgit report --dir "~/personal" --dir "~/work" --exclude "**path/to/ignore/*" --exclude "*.extension"

Plot

Visualize your git data in a variety of ways. From monthly breakdowns to insights on top authors or languages, get a clear picture of your repositories' trends and activities. It's required to run the produgit report command first to generate the data for plotting.

Flag/Option	Short	Default Value	Description
--input	-i	(from config)	Input file.
--start-date	-s		Start date (Formats accepted: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm, yyyy-mm-dd, yyyy-mm).
--end-date	-e		End date (Formats accepted: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm, yyyy-mm-dd, yyyy-mm).
--author	-a	(from config)	Authors.
--output	-o	(from config)	Output file.
--period	-p		Period to plot (options: today, 24h, this_week, 7d, this_month, 30d, this_year, 1y).

Subcommands within plot:

• monthly: Plot the monthly data.
• time_of_day: Plot the time of day data.
• top_authors: Plot the top authors data.
• top_languages: Plot the top languages data.
• weekday: Plot the weekday data.

Example:

produgit plot monthly --author "Foo" --author "Bar" -s 2023-09-12 14:15

Config

Keep your tool settings in check. Modify or reset the tool's configurations as per your needs, ensuring the CLI adapts to your workflow.

Command	Description
edit	Edit the produgit configuration.
reset	Reset the produgit configuration to its default values.

Anomaly

Identify unusual commit behaviors. Discover commits that contain a larger than usual quantity of lines. Great for spotting potential errors or oversized commits.

Flag/Option	Short	Default Value	Description
--quantity	-q	3000	Quantity of lines to be considered an anomaly.
--input	-i	(from config)	Input file.
--start-date	-s		Start date (Formats accepted: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm, yyyy-mm-dd, yyyy-mm).
--end-date	-e		End date (Formats accepted: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm, yyyy-mm-dd, yyyy-mm).
--authors	-a	(from config)	Authors to be considered.

Example:

produgit anomaly -q 5000 -s "2023-01-01" -e "2023-12-31"

List

Quickly access essential repository data. Find out key contributors or get a list of all the repositories you're working with.

Flag/Option	Short	Default Value	Description
--dir	-d	.	The starting directory to search for .git repositories.

Commands within list:

• author: List authors of all repositories.
• repos: List all repositories.

Config File

The Produgit CLI tool harnesses a configuration file to fine-tune and facilitate its functions. This file is automatically generated when the tool initializes, but you can also create or modify it manually for added customization.

Example Config File:

quiet = false
authors = ["John"]

[plot]
output = "<chart>_<authors>_<date>.html"

[report]
exclude = [
    "**node_modules/*",
    # other paths
]
output = "path/to/your/report.pb"

Configuration Breakdown:

Section/Attribute	Type	Description
quiet	Boolean	Determines if the tool should run in a quiet mode.
authors	Array of Strings	Lists default authors for tool operations.
[plot]	Section	Contains configurations for the plot command.
[plot].output	String	Specifies the naming format for plotting outputs.
[report]	Section	Contains configurations for the report command.
[report].exclude	Array of Strings	Paths and patterns to be excluded in reports.
[report].output	String	Default location for generated reports.

Placeholders for Plot's Output:

The naming convention for plotting outputs can incorporate several placeholders. These will be replaced with their actual values during runtime.

Placeholder	Represents
<authors>	The authors involved.
<date>	Current date of plot generation.
<start_date>	Specified start date in the plot command.
<end_date>	Specified end date in the plot command.
<chart>	Type of chart or graph plotted.
<timestamp>	Exact timestamp of plot generation.

Using the example config, plotting a monthly chart for the author "John" on "2023-09-12" could produce a file named: monthly_John_2023-09-12.html.
