Lolcommits Uploldz

lolcommits takes a snapshot with your webcam every time you git commit code, and archives a lolcat style image with it. Git blame has never been so much fun!

This plugin uploads each lolcommit to a remote server after capturing. You configure the plugin by setting a remote endpoint to handle the HTTP post request. The following params will be sent:

file - captured lolcommit file
message - the commit message
repo - repository name e.g. lolcommits/lolcommits
sha - commit SHA
author_name - the commit author name
author_email - the commit author email address
key - optional key (string) from plugin config

You can also set an optional HTTP Basic Auth header (username and/or password).

Requirements

Ruby >= 3.1
A webcam
ImageMagick
ffmpeg (optional) for animated gif capturing

Installation

After installing the lolcommits gem, install this plugin with:

$ gem install lolcommits-uploldz

Then configure to enable and set the remote endpoint:

$ lolcommits --config -p uploldz
# set enabled to `true`
# set the remote endpoint (must begin with http(s)://)
# optionally set a key (sent in params) and/or HTTP Basic Auth credentials

That's it! Provided the endpoint responds correctly, your next lolcommit will be uploaded to it. To disable use:

$ lolcommits --config -p uploldz
# and set enabled to `false`
