bes-build

bes-build is a small bash bes application to build bash program.
the building process simply consist to append shell script files from your src/ project directory into a single dist/project executable file

since version 0.5 bes-build attempt to be a dependency manager like composer (for php projects) but in a more extra-light way
since version 0.7 bes-build is able to manage his own dependencies on self building process

Install

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/meta-tech/bes-build/latest/dist/bes-build
bash ./bes-build -i

Usage

# change directory to your project
cd /home/repo/meta-tech/bes
bes-build
# you can now execute program with : 
./dist/bes
# to display help execute :
bes-build -h 

Requirements

using bes-build script require you to conform to these following rules :

  • respect this directory structure :

    project/
       |
       |--- bes.ini         # project information and requirements (optional)
       |
       |--- dist/project    # project build (auto generated by bes-build)
       |
       |--- src/
       |     |
       |     |--- file1.sh
       |     |--- file2.sh
       |     | ...
       |     |--- filen.sh
       |
       |--- vendor/         # project dependencies (auto generated by bes-build update)
  • each src/ shell file require a shebang on first line (#!/bin/bash)
  • src/main.sh file is append to the end of the build file
  • we strongly recommand you to use function and prefix function name
bes.install(){
   ...
}

Dependency Manager

note: This functionnality is still in progress
to use bes-build like a dependency manager, you need a bes.ini file in your application root path

[require]
bes.echo    = 1.3

then you can run the update command before building

bes-build update

bes-build call git on a vendor directory and clone the require lib

on next build, bes-build will append the dependencies to your dist file

External dependencies

since version 0.6 you can now add external dependencies :

[require]
test.echo   = https://git.pluie.org/meta-tech/bes-echo:master

Releasing bes lib

if you intend to release your lib as a bes dependency you must provide a bes.ini file as following : (example is taken from bes-echo)

[project]
vendor      = bes
name        = echo
version     = 1.3
license     = "GNU GPL v3"
author      = a-Sansara
type        = library
homepage    = "https://git.pluie.org/meta-tech/bes-echo"
description = "bash bes display utility library"
keywords    = "bash, bes"

[require]
bes.color   = 1.3
