A task runner written in Python
Project description
Bolt is a task runner inspired by grunt and written in python that helps you automate any task in your project whether it is executed in your development environment or in your CI/CD pipeline. Bolt gives you the power to specify how tasks should be executed, and it takes care of the rest. And it is as simple as describing and configuring your tasks in the boltfile.py.
# boltfile.py
import bolt
config = {
'pip': {
'command': 'install',
'options': {
'r': './requirements.txt'
}
},
'delete-pyc': {
'sourcedir': './src',
'recursive': True
},
'nose': {
'directory': './tests',
'options': {
'with-xunit': True,
'xunit-file': './logs/unit_test_log.xml'
}
}
}
bolt.register_task('run-tests', ['pip', 'delete-pyc', 'nose'])
# in your favorite shell
bolt pip
# to install requirements
bolt nose
# executes unit tests
bolt run-tests
# installs requirements, deletes .pyc files, and runs unit tests
Why Use Bolt?
Let’s face it, you want to automate everything, but doing so becomes a burden; especially, if you are working on a cross-platform application. You may find your-self switching CI/CD systems and going through the pain of rewriting your pipelines to the specific domain languages they use. Python is cross-platform and any pipline will allow you to execute a command. This makes Bolt ideal to create reusable tasks that can execute in any environment indpendently of tools. And, It’s fun!
How Can I Get Started?
You can start by installing bolt and following the examples in the Getting Started guide. Once you become familiar with Bolt, you can look at other topics in Using Bolt, to learn about the different features it provides.
