Provides access to `git subrepo` in Python

Project description

Build Status codecov PyPI version

Git Subrepo Python Wrapper

In the same way that `GitPython <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/GitPython/>`__ wraps git, this library provides easy access to git subrepo in Python.

How to use

Prerequisites

  • git >= 2.10.0 (on path)

  • git-subrepo >= 0.3.1

  • python >= 3.6

Installation

Stable releases can be installed via PyPI:

$ pip install gitsubrepo

Bleeding edge versions can be installed directly from GitHub:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/wtsi-hgi/python-git-subrepo-wrapper.git@${commit_id_or_branch_or_tag}#egg=gitsubrepo

To declare this library as a dependency of your project, add it to your requirement.txt file.

API

The library currently supports 3 git subrepo operations: clone, pull and status. Please see the documentation for specific information on how to use these methods.

Example usage:

import gitsubrepo

remote_repository = "https://github.com/colin-nolan/test-repository.git"
repository_location = "/tmp/repo"
subrepo_location = f"{repository_location}/subrepo"
branch = "develop"

commit_reference = gitsubrepo.clone(remote_repository, subrepo_location, branch=branch)
updated_commit_reference = gitsubrepo.pull(subrepo_location)

subrepo_remote, subrepo_branch, subrepo_commit = gitsubrepo.status(subrepo_location)
assert subrepo_remote == remote_repository
assert subrepo_branch == branch

Development

Setup

Install both library dependencies and the dependencies needed for testing:

$ pip install -q -r requirements.txt
$ pip install -q -r test_requirements.txt

Testing

To run the tests and generate a coverage report with unittest:

$ PYTHONPATH=. coverage run -m unittest discover -v -s gitsubrepo/tests
