Installing

Create Virtual Environment

[!NOTE] Use whichever kind env you please, just make sure to use one to avoid clobbering your system pacakges.

mkdir -p ~/.local/opt/package-scripts
python3 -m venv ~/.local/opt/package-scripts
source ~/.local/opt/package-scripts/bin/activate

Set File Prefix

• File prefixes should match the regex pattern [\w-]+.
• With a prefix of 'run', the resulting files will be: run-build, run-format, run-bump-version, run-create-service.

export SCRIPT_PREFIX="run"

Install PyPI Package

 PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX="${SCRIPT_PREFIX:-run}" pip install --no-cache-dir package-scripts

Ensure Scripts are in PATH

Do one of the following:

• Option 1 - Symlink the scripts from the virtual environment to any location already in PATH

for script in build format bump-version create-service; do
  ln -s "$HOME/.local/opt/package-scripts/bin/${PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX}-${script}" "$HOME/.local/bin/${PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX}-${script}"
done 

• Option 2 - Copy the generated script files to a location in PATH

cp "$HOME/.local/opt/package-scripts/bin/${PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX}-"* "$HOME/.local/bin/"

• Option 3 - Add the virtual environment's bin directory to PATH. This has the side effect of including every other executable file in that directory to the search path, so be warned.

# Append to PATH rather than prepend so that the executables we add will be used only if they don't exist elsewere.
echo "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/opt/package-scripts/bin" >> ~/.bashrc

Install Shell Completion

This will generate a file in the local shell completion directory

for script in build format bump-version create-service; do
  ${PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX}-${script} --install-completion
done

[!TIP] If you want to place the completion scripts elsewhere, you can redirect the output of ${PACKAGE_SCRIPT_PREFIX}-${script} --show-completion to your desired location instead of using --install-completion.
