Boku
What is this?
Boku (僕, servant from Japanese) is a simple, sequential YAML task runner written in Python. While other, most likely much better tools exist that achieve this and much more, the intention was to create a lightweight tool that can help me with recurring tasks without writing much code to achieve this.
Why?
The idea was (and remains) to create a simple tool that I can personally use to automate simple tasks (with some added benefits like dependencies) without having to write code (either bash or python) to achieve this. It's NOT meant to be a replacement to other, much better and more sophisticated tools, but rather a simple solution to a simple problem with little to no learning curve, hence a simple YAML based syntax.
Installation
You can easily install/run boku via tools like pipx or uv:
- Via
pipx:pipx install https://git.sr.ht/~hxii/boku/archive/0.2.3.tar.gz. - Via
uv:uv tool install https://git.sr.ht/~hxii/boku/archive/0.2.3.tar.gz.
!!! Note I will figure out a brew formula for this at some point.
!!! Note There is probably a way to install the latest version when deploying on SourceHut, but I haven't gotten around to figuring that out yet.
Configuration
!!! IMPORTANT Configuration is yet to be implemented. Sorry!
See configuration documentation here.
