Multik

Multi-repository management command-line tool.

This is handy when you're working on multiple SCM repositories and/or on multiple computers. E.g. rather than updating each repository one by one, it's easier to just run mk update and update all of them in one go. Rather than checking for uncommitted local changes one by one, it's easier to just run mk status and check all in one go. And if you often switch between multiple computers, simply use the same multik.json file on those computers and easily manage the same set of repositories.

Installation

Much more information is available via mk help once it's installed. This is just enough to get you started.

[sudo] npm install -g multik

Usage

Initialise local repositories:

mk install

Update local repositories with changes from remote repositories:

mk update

Display the changes in local repositories:

mk status

Configuration

Repositories can be configured in multik.json file:

{
    "groups": {
        "mygroup": {
            "directory": "multik_modules/repos23"
        }
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "demo-repo1": {
            "repo": "https://github.com/multik/demo-repo1.git",
            "version": "master"
        },
        "demo-repo2": {
            "group": "mygroup",
            "repo": "https://github.com/multik/demo-repo2.git",
            "version": "master"
        },
        "demo-repo3": {
            "group": "mygroup",
            "folder": "repo3",
            "repo": "https://github.com/multik/demo-repo2.git",
            "version": "master"
        }
    }
}
