Forked from the renowned tool Husky to skip another dotfile being added to the project's repo.
Husky can prevent bad git commit
, git push
and more 🐶 woof!
- Husky's postinstall setup script will not always run automatically due to pnpm super fast cached installation. It is recommended to include a
prepare: "husky install"
in your repo's rootpackage.json
scripts. - This fork was patched to be compatible with
pnpm
>=v6
.
- npm v7 users: if hooks aren't being installed with npm
v7
, check that your version is at leastv7.1.2
.
This will install @chotot/husky.
# npm
npm install @chotot/husky --save-dev
# pnpm
pnpm add --save-dev @chotot/husky
// package.json
{
"husky": {
"hooks": {
"pre-commit": "npm test",
"pre-push": "npm test",
"...": "..."
}
}
}
git commit -m 'Keep calm and commit'
Existing hooks are kept. Requires Node >= 10
and Git >= 2.13.0
.
If Husky is already in your node_modules
and you want to reinstall hooks, you can run npx husky install
or pnpm exec husky install
.
npm uninstall @chotot/husky
Git hooks installed by husky will be removed.
- Supported hooks
- Access Git params and stdin
- Skip all hooks (rebase)
- Disable auto-install
- CI servers
- Monorepos
- Node version managers
- Local commands (~/.huskyrc)
- Multiple commands
- Troubleshoot
Husky supports all Git hooks defined here. Server-side hooks (pre-receive
, update
and post-receive
) aren't supported.
Git hooks can get parameters via command-line arguments and stdin. Husky makes them accessible via HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS
and HUSKY_GIT_STDIN
environment variables.
"commit-msg": "echo $HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS"
During a rebase you may want to skip all hooks, you can use HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS
environment variable.
HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git rebase ...
If you don't want husky to automatically install Git hooks, simply set HUSKY_SKIP_INSTALL
environment variable.
HUSKY_SKIP_INSTALL=1 npm install
By default, Husky won't install on CI servers.
If you have a multi-package repository, it's recommended to use tools like lerna and have husky installed ONLY in the root package.json
to act as the source of truth.
Generally speaking, you should AVOID defining husky in multiple package.json
, as each package would overwrite previous husky installation.

If you're on Windows, husky will simply use the version installed globally on your system.
For macOS and Linux users:
- if you're running
git
commands in the terminal, husky will use the version defined in your shellPATH
. In other words, if you're anvm
user, husky will use the version that you've set withnvm
. - if you're using a GUI client and
nvm
, it may have a differentPATH
and not loadnvm
, in this case the highestnode
version installed bynvm
will usually be picked. You can also check~/.node_path
to see which version is used by GUIs and edit if you want to use something else.
Husky will source ~/.huskyrc
file if it exists before running hook scripts.
You can use it, for example, to load a node version manager or run some shell
commands before hooks.
# ~/.huskyrc
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
By design and just like scripts
defined in package.json
, husky will run hook scripts as a single command.
"pre-commit": "cmd && cmd"
That said, if you prefer to use an array, the recommended approach is to define them in .huskyrc.js
or husky.config.js
.
const tasks = (arr) => arr.join(' && ')
module.exports = {
hooks: {
'pre-commit': tasks(['cmd', 'cmd']),
},
}
Tools like npm-run-all can help too.
HUSKY_DEBUG=1
can provide additional information when running commands.
HUSKY_DEBUG=1 npm install @chotot/husky --save-dev
HUSKY_DEBUG=1 git commit ...
Check if hooks were installed. Verify that .git/hooks/pre-commit
exists and have husky code. It should start with:
#!/bin/sh
# husky...
If not, you may have another Git hooks manager defined in your package.json
overwriting husky's hooks. Check also the output during install, you should see:
husky > Setting up git hooks
husky > Done
Check if there's core.hooksPath
config defined in your repo .git/config
file. In that case, either:
- If the
hooksPath
config was added accidentally, (likely vianpx husky-init
), remove that line in.git/config
file. - If
hooksPath
was added by another tool that you are aware of, then it's better to install and use the official Husky package
For a commit to be blocked, pre-commit
script must exit with a non-zero exit code. If you commit isn't blocked, check your script exit code.
Husky is fast and only adds a few tenth of seconds to commits (~0.3s
on a low-end PC). So it's most probably related to how many things are done during pre-commit
. You can often improve this by using cache on your tools (babel, eslint, ...) and using lint-staged.
To isolate your issue, you can also create a new repo:
mkdir foo && cd foo
git init && npm init -y
npm install @chotot/husky --save-dev
# Add a failing pre-commit hook to your package.json:
# "pre-commit": "echo \"this should fail\" && exit 1"
# Make a commit
Verify that your version of Git is >=2.13.0
