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 automatically posts your Lolcommit to Twitter. The tweet features your commit message (shortened, with some optional surrounding text) and the captured image. See the #lolcommits hash tag for some examples in the wild. You can also configure the plugin to auto-open the tweet in your default browser.
- Ruby >= 2.4
- A webcam
- ImageMagick
- ffmpeg (optional) for animated gif capturing
After installing the lolcommits gem, install this plugin with:
$ gem install lolcommits-twitter
The configure the plugin to enable it and auth with Twitter
$ lolcommits --config -p twitter
# set enabled to `true` (then set your own options or choose the defaults)
NOTE: if you enable this plugin on another repository you may want to
copy the credentials from ~/.lolcommits/{your-repo}/config.yml (so
Twitter does not de-authorize the connection).
The following options are available:
- prefix
- suffix (default: #lolcommits)
- auto-open tweet url?
You can always reconfigure the plugin later, to change these options without having to re-authenicate with Twitter.
To disable - set enabled: false and revoke plugin access to your
twitter account here.
