bitbucket-multi-repo-management

A node.js console application that manages multiple git repositories in Bitbucket Cloud via the Bitbucket API.

This tool was created namely for creating branches and tags on multiple repositories without having to clone them locally. While this tool only calls a few Bitbucket API endpoints, there's no reason it couldn't be expanded to add more functionality.

Getting Started

Install globally via npm:

npm install -g @panirudh/bitbucket-multi-repo-management

or yarn:

yarn global add @panirudh/bitbucket-multi-repo-management

You should now have bmrm available as a global executable.

Run it without any commands to see the help page:

bmrm

Auth Configuration

Run the init command to setup your bitbucket username and app password.

bmrm init

Note: Do not use your own bitbucket password. Instead, create an "app password" with repositories read and write access. More info here on creating app passwords: https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/app-passwords/

Once finished, a config file will be created at ~/.bmrm-auth.json. You can edit this file anytime to change any configuration manually.

Configuration

Create a .bmrm.json file or run bmrm create-config to create a file for you.

{
    "repositories": [
        "organization/the-best-repository",
        "organization/awesome-repository"
    ]
}

The following fields are valid in the configuration file:

repositories

An array of bitbucket repositories you'd like to run commands on. This should be the full name of the repository, include the organization / user account.

versionPrefix

A prefix for versioning (eg "v").

When using the tag create --interactive command, a version prefix can be added to tags automatically.

prereleaseIdentifier

If following semver, and using the tag create --interactive command, this will be the pre-release suffix that can be generated for release versions (eg "alpha", "beta", "rc", etc).

You can also create a config file in any of these formats:

package.json -- as a "bmrm" key
.bmrm
.bmrm.json
.bmrm.yaml
.bmrm.yml
.bmrm.js
.bmrm.cjs
bmrm.config.js
bmrm.config.cjs

We use cosmiconfig to load these different files, checkout that library for more information.

Usage

Listing Configured Repositories

Run repo list to view all the repositories you'd added so far:

bmrm repo list

Creating + Deleting Branches

Run branch create or branch delete to manage branches on all repositories.

bmrm branch create <fromBranch> <branchName>
bmrm branch delete <branchName>

You will see your list of repositories, and some action information with a prompt to confirm before the action is executed.

Creating + Deleting Tags

Run tag create and tag delete to manage tags on all repositories.

bmrm tag create <fromBranchOrHash> <tagName>
# Or interactively with semver suggested versions based on the current version:
bmrm tag create --interactive

bmrm tag delete <tagName>
