Install 📦

Install via npm:

npm install @push.rocks/projectinfo

Or with pnpm:

pnpm install @push.rocks/projectinfo

This module is ESM-only and requires Node.js 18+.

Usage 🚀

@push.rocks/projectinfo provides an async API for extracting npm and git metadata from any project directory. It uses @push.rocks/smartfs under the hood for filesystem operations.

All classes use async factory methods — no synchronous constructors.

Quick Start

import { ProjectInfo, ProjectinfoNpm, getNpmNameForDir } from '@push.rocks/projectinfo';

Get Full Project Info

The ProjectInfo class is the main entry point. It gathers both npm and git info from a given directory:

import { ProjectInfo } from '@push.rocks/projectinfo';

const info = await ProjectInfo.create('./my-project');

// npm info
console.log(info.npm.name);       // e.g. "@push.rocks/projectinfo"
console.log(info.npm.version);    // e.g. "5.0.2"
console.log(info.npm.license);    // e.g. "MIT"
console.log(info.npm.isNpm);      // true if package.json exists

// git info (parsed from directory path)
console.log(info.git.gitrepo);    // e.g. "projectinfo"
console.log(info.git.gituser);    // e.g. "push.rocks"

// project type
console.log(info.type);           // "npm" if package.json found, otherwise "git"

NPM Info Only

Use ProjectinfoNpm directly when you only need package.json data:

import { ProjectinfoNpm } from '@push.rocks/projectinfo';

const npm = await ProjectinfoNpm.create('/path/to/project');

if (npm.isNpm) {
  console.log(npm.name);           // package name
  console.log(npm.version);        // package version
  console.log(npm.license);        // license field
  console.log(npm.packageJson);    // full parsed package.json object
}

With Git Access Token

If your package.json has a repository field, ProjectinfoNpm will parse it into a GitRepo object. You can provide an access token for authenticated URLs:

const npm = await ProjectinfoNpm.create('/path/to/project', {
  gitAccessToken: 'ghp_your_token_here',
});

if (npm.git) {
  console.log(npm.git.httpsUrl);  // e.g. "https://[email protected]/user/repo.git"
}

Git Info Only

Use ProjectinfoGit for path-based git metadata extraction:

import { ProjectinfoGit } from '@push.rocks/projectinfo';

// Parses the directory path to extract git user and repo
const git = new ProjectinfoGit('/home/user/repos/myorg/myrepo');

console.log(git.gituser);  // "myorg"
console.log(git.gitrepo);  // "myrepo"

You can also parse a remote URL:

git.getGitInfoFromRemote('git+https://github.com/someuser/somerepo.git');

Quick Helper: Get Package Name

A convenience function to quickly get the npm package name from a directory:

import { getNpmNameForDir } from '@push.rocks/projectinfo';

const name = await getNpmNameForDir('./my-project');
console.log(name); // e.g. "@push.rocks/projectinfo"

Returns undefined if no valid package.json is found.
