The husky command to add JIRA ticket ID into the commit message if it is missing.
The JIRA ticket ID is taken from the current git branch name.
Installing Jira prepare commit msg hook into your project will mean everyone contributing code to your project will automatically tag each commit with its associated issue key based on the branch name.
So if your branch name is feature/TEST-123-new-feature, then when you commit with a message "initial commit" it will automatically become "TEST-123: initial commit".
Why would you want this? Well, Jira has many hidden goodies, and this is one of them! If you include an issue key in your commit messages AND you have your deployment pipeline connected to Jira this will unlock many bonus features, such as the Deployments view, Cycle time report, Deployment frequency report and I've heard many more features are coming soon!
Install the package using NPM
npm install husky jira-prepare-commit-msg --save-dev && npx husky installExecute command
npx husky add .husky/prepare-commit-msg 'npx jira-prepare-commit-msg $1'To quiet the output of the command, you can use the --quiet flag.
npx husky add .husky/prepare-commit-msg 'npx jira-prepare-commit-msg --quiet $1'Inside your package.json add a standard husky npm script for the git hook
{
"husky": {
"hooks": {
"prepare-commit-msg": "jira-prepare-commit-msg"
}
}
}Starting with v1.3 you can now use different ways of configuring it:
jira-prepare-commit-msgobject in yourpackage.json.jirapreparecommitmsgrcfile in JSON or YML formatjira-prepare-commit-msg.config.jsfile in JS format
See cosmiconfig for more details on what formats are supported.
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"messagePattern": "[$J] $M",
"jiraTicketPattern": "([A-Z]+-\\d+)",

}jira-prepare-commit-msg supports special message pattern to configure where JIRA ticket number will be inserted.
- Symbols
$Jwill be replaced by the JIRA ticket number - Symbols
$Mwill be replaced by the commit message.
Pattern [$J]\n$M is currently enabled by default.
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"messagePattern": "[$J]\n$M"
}
}[$J] $M[$J]-$M$J $M
NOTE: the supplied commit message will be cleaned up by strip mode.
jira-prepare-commit-msg supports by default replacing all occurrences variables in message pattern.
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"allowReplaceAllOccurrences": true
}
}If set the message pattern to [$J] $M. \n Line for CI ($J): $M, then all occurrences will be replaced:
[JIRA-1234] test message.
Line for CI (JIRA-1234): test message
jira-prepare-commit-msg allows using custom regexp string pattern to search JIRA ticket number.
Pattern ([A-Z]+-\\d+) is currently supported by default.
NOTE: to search JIRA ticket pattern flag i is used: new RegExp(pattern, i')
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"jiraTicketPattern": "([A-Z]+-\\d+)"
}
}Git uses # by default to comment lines in the commit message. If default char was changed jira-prepare-commit-msg can allow set it.
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"commentChar": "#"
}
}The commit message might be empty after cleanup or using -m "", jira-prepare-commit-msg might insert the JIRA ticket number anyway if this flag is set.
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"allowEmptyCommitMessage": true
}
}The git root folder might be set. It is either absolute path or relative path which will be resolved from cwd
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"gitRoot": "./../../"
}
}The package will search commit message so:
const pathToGit = path.resolve(cwd, './../../');
const pathToCommitMessage = path.join(pathToGit, '.git', 'COMMIT_EDITMSG');Branches can be ignored and skipped by regex pattern string
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"ignoredBranchesPattern": "^main|develop|(maint-.*)$"
}
}Moreover, this can be solved by replacing the Husky hook. Put in your prepare-commit-msg file (husky git hook):
#!/bin/sh
. "$(dirname "$0")/_/husky.sh"
if [[ "$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)" =~ YOUR_BRANCH_REGEX ]]; then
npx --no-install jira-prepare-commit-msg $1
fiwhere YOUR_BRANCH_REGEX e.g. ^(feature|(bug|hot)fix)\/[A-Z]+-[0-9]+$
Be silent and skip any branch with missing jira ticket
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"ignoreBranchesMissingTickets": true
}
}jira-prepare-commit-msg supports conventional commit. To insert JIRA
ticket number to the description set the following setting:
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"isConventionalCommit": true
}
}NOTE: For description will be applied messagePattern
If the configuration is:
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"messagePattern": "[$J] $M",
"isConventionalCommit": true
}
}and commit message is fix(test)!: important changes then at result will be fix(test)!: [JIRA-1234] important changes
Additionally, you can customize the conventional commit format with the following setting:
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"conventionalCommitPattern": "^([a-z]+)(\\([a-z0-9.,-_ ]+\\))?!?: ([\\w \\S]+)$"
}
}The above regular expression is the default conventional commit pattern so, if you don't provide this property, jira-prepare-commit-msg will use this by default.
In the default regular expression, from left to right:
([a-z]+)is the committype.(\\([a-z0-9.,-_ ]+\\))?!?is the commitscope.- And
([\\w \\S]+)is the commitsubject.
With this setting you can change how jira-prepare-commit-msg reads your custom conventional commit message and rewrite it adding the Jira ticket id.
You can allow the scope to have capital letters adding A-Z to the regular expression above. If the configuration is:
{
"jira-prepare-commit-msg": {
"messagePattern": "[$J] $M",
"isConventionalCommit": true,
"conventionalCommitPattern": "^([a-z]+)(\\([a-zA-Z0-9.,-_ ]+\\))?!?: ([\\w \\S]+)$"
// ^^^
// Now we can use capital letters in the conventional commit scope
}
}and commit message is "test(E2E): some end-to-end testing stuff" then at result will be "test(E2E): [JIRA-1234] some end-to-end testing stuff"
Be aware that if you leave the default conventionalCommitPattern value (that it not allows capital letters in the commit scope), and the same values for messagePattern and isConventionalCommit in the example above, your resulting message will be "[JIRA-1234] test(E2E): some end-to-end testing stuff". Maybe, this is not the result you are expecting and you can have problems using other tools like commitlint.
