The Risks of Misguided Research in Supply Chain Security
Snyk's use of malicious npm packages for research raises ethical concerns, highlighting risks in public deployment, data exfiltration, and unauthorized testing.
git-hooks
is an utility for managing and running project git hooks for nodejs projects.
It has zero dependecies and easy to use.
Just install git-hooks and it will run your hooks when a hook is called by git.
Hooks are little scripts you can place in $GIT_DIR/hooks
directory to trigger action at certain points.
They are very powerful and helpful.
You can do a lot of things with them:
Note. When you use git-hooks
, you should not modify $GIT_DIR/hooks
directory manually because git-hooks
will do it for you.
Install git-hooks
in your project.
npm install git-hooks --save-dev
To keep things organized, git-hooks
looks for scripts in sub-directories named after the git hook name.
All these sub-directories should be stored in .githooks
directory in the project root.
Let's create some dummy pre-commit hook.
mkdir -p .githooks/pre-commit
echo -e '#!/usr/bin/env node' "\nconsole.log('hi!');" > .githooks/pre-commit/hello.js
chmod +x .githooks/pre-commit/hello.js
Then just try to commit and see how things are rolling.
git add .githooks package.json
git commit -m "Add git-hooks"
See also hooks examples.
It's worth to mention that our library checks for gitignore rules while executing scripts in .githooks/ directories.
