Quick proof of concept git hook integration with the Paydirt API

.git config

[paydirt]
  apikey = abcdef
  jobid = 12345

post-commit

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'httparty'

API_ENDPOINT = "https://paydirtapp.com/api/v1/time"

commit_message = `git log -1 HEAD --format=format:%s`

# Fetch the Paydirt API key with from .git/config
api_key = `git config --get paydirt.apikey`.strip

# Fetch the Paydirt task this repo is associated with from .git/config
# This could be part of the commit message format, or associated with the issue #, or anything really
job_id = `git config --get paydirt.jobid`.strip

# If commit message ends in [Xm]
# This could be extended to match different formats (eg. XhYm, Xh, X.YZh, X:YZ etc)
if commit_message.match(/\[(\d+)m\]$/)
  duration_in_minutes = $1.to_i
  duration_in_seconds = duration_in_minutes * 60

  # Log time in Paydirt towards the appropriate task
  response = HTTParty.post(API_ENDPOINT, query: { api_key: api_key, job_id: job_id, duration_only: true, duration: duration_in_seconds, date: Date.today })

  if response.success?

    exit 0
  else
    abort "Error: #{response.parsed_response['errors']}"
