Examples

Look into the commits to see how OpenCommit works. Emoji and long commit description text is configurable.

Setup

The minimum supported version of Node.js is the latest v14. Check your Node.js version with node --version.

1. Install opencommit globally to use in any repository:

   npm install -g opencommit
   

2. Get your API key from OpenAI

3. Set the key to opencommit config:

   opencommit config set OPENAI_API_KEY=<your token>
   

   Your token isn't sent to anyone, it's saved in ~/.opencommit config file.

Usage

You can call opencommit directly to generate a commit message for your staged changes:

git add <files...>
opencommit

You can also use the oc shortcut:

git add <files...>
oc

Features

opencommit config set emoji=false

Postface commits with descriptions of changes 🤠

Payments

You pay for your own requests to OpenAI API. OpenCommit uses ChatGPT official model, that is ~10x times cheaper than GPT-3.
