Gitshots Post-Commit Hook

post-commit.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# Requires imagesnap from https://github.com/alexwilliamsca/imagesnap (brew install imagesnap)
# To assemble the video use http://www.dayofthenewdan.com/projects/tlassemble

file="~/.gitshots/#{Time.now.to_i}.jpg"
puts "Taking capture into #{file}!"
system "imagesnap -q -w 3 #{file}"
exit 0

Or you could simplify it like this ;)

#!/bin/sh
imagesnap -q $HOME/.gitshots/$(date "+%s").jpg &

Because on my system date -j -f "%a %b %d %T %Z %Y" "date" "+%s" fails to convert date

For Linux/Ubuntu you can use streamer..

file="~/.gitshots/#{Time.now.to_i}.jpg"
puts "Taking capture into #{file}!"
system "streamer -f jpeg #{file}"
exit 0
