Lancet

LANCET

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalpel:

A scalpel, or lancet, is a small and extremely sharp bladed instrument used for surgery, anatomical dissection, and various arts and crafts (called a hobby knife).

Lancet is a command line utility to streamline the various activities related to the development and maintenance of a software package.

• Documentation: http://lancet.rtfd.org

Installation

Check out the documentation.

Getting started

Once installed, set up the initial configuration by running:

lancet setup

For each not-yet-configured project, you can then run:

cd path/to/project
lancet init

This creates a new project-level configuration file that can be shared across different users (and thus commited to source control).

Install dev version

~/.local/venvs/lancet/bin/pip uninstall lancet
~/.local/venvs/lancet/bin/pip install https://github.com/GaretJax/lancet/archive/master.zip

TODO

A lot of commands are still missing, as for example:

• review: to streamline the whole reviewing process (pulling, linting,diffs,…).

• merge: to help in getting a more strict merge process in place (and cleanup afterwards). Can include rebasing helpers.

• Other issue tracker/Harvest interaction utilities (list, search, comment, …)

History

0.7.0 - 2015-02-26

• Added support for Jinja2-rendered templates to define the initial pull-request title/body used by the pr command.

• Update the Harvest API to make use of the external_ref argument instead of simulating a browsing session. This trims down on the number of requests needed to start a timer and improves performance.

• Added a checkout command to easily checkout an existing branch based solely on the issue ID.

• All commands are now dynamically loaded. Additional commands can be defined in the settings (this also supports custom external commands).

• The Harvest project is now retrieved from the supertask if none can be defined by looking at the subtask.

• Get the github login token from the keychain in a more robust way.

0.6.0 - 2015-01-19

• Added support for pluggable Harvest task/project mapper.

• Added support for epics based time tracking.

• Added support for pluggable branch naming backends.

• Added support for different branch prefixes based on issue type.

• Added URL hints to lancet setup.

• Fix assignee comparison bug.

• More robust support for flawed versions of the git osxkeychain credentials helper.

• Increase the slug length in branch names to 50 chars.

• Built in support for debugging exceptions.
