c#svnsharpsvnpre-commit-hook

How can i get access to the SVN pre-commit message using SharpSVN?

i see that all I can set to is %repos% and %txn%

how can I use those to get to the commit message (in my case, so i can parse out the ticket number so i can see if it exists in the bug database before committing to it)

Solution

  • Using a recent SharpSvn release you can use

    SvnHookArguments ha; 
if (!SvnHookArguments.ParseHookArguments(args, SvnHookType.PreCommit, false, out ha))
{
    Console.Error.WriteLine("Invalid arguments");
    Environment.Exit(1);  
}

    to parse the arguments of a pre-commit hook and then use

    using (SvnLookClient cl = new SvnLookClient())
{
    SvnChangeInfoEventArgs ci;

    cl.GetChangeInfo(ha.LookOrigin, out ci);


    // ci contains information on the commit e.g.
    Console.WriteLine(ci.LogMessage); // Has log message

    foreach (SvnChangeItem i in ci.ChangedPaths)
    {

    }
}

    to get to the log message, changed files, etc.
