A Go tool that determines Go Packages that have been affected by changes to other packages between VCS commits.

1. (Optional) Install the tool:

go install github.com/vidsy/affected/cmd/affected

The installed location will need to be in your $PATH for you to use the binary. Alternatively, use the go run method to run the tool against your target

2. How to use the tool to identify changed services

• Navigate to the folder you want to run the tool from

cd /Users/dhanakanesh/Vidsy/back-end

• Run the command:

go run github.com/vidsy/affected/cmd/affected \
  -a origin/master \
  -b HEAD \
  -f json \
  group --pkg-prefix github.com/vidsy/back-end/services \
  --after 1 \
  -i="/**/services/*/.service.yaml" \
  -i="/**/services/*/Makefile" \
  -i="/**/services/*/Dockerfile" \
  -i="/**/services/*/VERSION" \
  -i="/**/services/*/config/*.json"

This command can silently fail. Ensure the Git branch it is run from is up to date with master if it does

• Run affected, excluding a specific filepath:

go run github.com/vidsy/affected/cmd/affected -x="/**/services/project-rpc/*" -a origin/master -b HEAD -f json

go run github.com/vidsy/affected/cmd/affected
-a origin/master
-b HEAD
-f json
group --pkg-prefix github.com/vidsy/back-end/services
--after 1
-i="//services/*/.service.yaml"
-i="//services//Makefile"
-i="/**/services//Dockerfile"
-i="//services/*/VERSION"
-i="//services//config/.json" -x="/**/services/project-rpc/*" \
