✨ module to read git user config from the system and return it as a JSON object.

Read-git-user is a tiny 1.3kB✨ module that can be used to retrieve the git username and email right from the systems global .gitconfig file.

How this works is that the module looks for HOME || USERPROFILE and reads the ini file from there and returns it as a parsed JSON object.

Usage

import readGitUser = require('read-git-user'); (async () => { const gitUser = await readGitUser(); //=> {user: rocktimsaikia, email: rocktimsaikia@gmail.com} const gitUser = readGitUser.sync() //=> {user: rocktimsaikia, email: rocktimsaikia@gmail.com} })(); 

[ PS: I created this tool to use it in a project that I am working on. I thought someone might find it handy so made a quick post. Leave a star at the repo 🌟 if find this helpful. Thanks for reading 👋]
