README

The goal of Gitify is to provide a two-way sync of data typically stored in the MODX database, making it versionable with Git. To do this, it creates a representation of MODX objects in files. These files follow a certain human and machine friendly format, built from a block of YAML, followed by a separator, and then the main content (if there's a specific content field) below that.

The project configuration, which determines what data is written to file and build to the database, is stored in a .gitify file in the project root.

Upgrading to v2

Gitify v2 brings updated dependencies, additional functionality, and easier installation/updates via Composer.

The data file structure is unchanged, so you can safely update to v2.

1. To upgrade with the intention of contributing to Gitify, you can keep your exiting git installation.
   1. Bring it up to date with the master branch (git fetch origin && git reset --hard origin/master, or git fetch upstream && git reset --hard upstream/master)
   2. Install updated dependencies (composer install)
   3. Update your $PATH to point to the bin directory. This may be in your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.zshrc file.
2. To upgrade simply to use Gitify, it's recommended to remove the v1 git-based installation completely, and instead install Gitify globally with Composer as described in the installation section below.

Important to know:

• Gitify v2 is now compatible with Gitify Watch v2. Make sure you've upgraded to the latest version.
• The minimum PHP version has been increased to 7.2.5.
• Gitify has changed to gitify and is now in a /bin subdirectory.

Installation

composer global require modmore/gitify:^2

If that does not make gitify available on your path, add the output of composer global config bin-dir --absolute to your path (i.e. in the ~/.bash_profile or ~/.zshrc file on Mac/Linux).

To update, use composer global update modmore/gitify.

Alternatively, you can install Gitify local to a project with composer require modmore/gitify:^2. In that case you'll need to use vendor/bin/gitify as the command.

When installing an alpha/dev version, if you haven't modified your global composer config before, it's possible you'll get an error message pertaining to your minimum-stability setting. (Composer defaults to stable, and we want an unstable version!) To fix this, you'll need to set your global minimum stability with the following command:

composer global config minimum-stability alpha

Manual Installation

Use the manual installation to build from source, useful if you intend to help make Gitify better.

$ git clone https://github.com/modmore/Gitify.git Gitify
$ cd Gitify
$ composer install --no-dev
$ chmod +x bin/gitify

Please see the Installation documentation for more details.

Documentation

Check the modmore Gitify documentation! It contains information about the available commands and the way you would go about setting up a suitable workflow.

Please feel free to contribute to the wiki by editing existing pages, or adding new pages with extra information not covered elsewhere yet.

Changes & History

Gitify adheres to semver. As we are before v1 right now, expect breaking changes and refactorings before the API stabilises.

For changes, please see the commit log or the Changelog.
