Generate whatthecommit messages locally w/o web server? about commitment HOT 7 CLOSED

You should be able to use shuf to pick a random line out of the commit_messages.txt file as shown here:

shuf -n 1 commit_messages.txt

On MacOS, shuf is available as gshuf through brew install coreutils.

For Powershell, my (probably not great) solution:

Get-Content commit-messages.txt | Select -Index (Get-Random (Get-Content commit_messages.txt).Count)

My npm package does the trick as well: https://github.com/janraasch/javascript-commitment

And there's a package for Atom: https://atom.io/packages/commitment

Both work offline.

Okay! (I’m on Linux, BTW.) How would I get it to interpret forms like XNAMEX, XUPPERNAMEX, XLOWERNAMEX, XNUMX, XNUM30X, XNUM2,5X etc. correctly?

I'm not sure whether the easiest way to do that is with a bash find-replace or by refactoring the application so it can be run locally, to be quite honest.

All right, thanks! Feel free to mark this as a feature request.

There are some great alternatives, so I'm going to close this.
