rgw-cli-contract 0.1.2

Shared runtime and scaffolding contract for Python CLI/TUI apps

rgw-cli-contract

rgw-cli-contract is the shared runtime and scaffolding contract for Ryan's Python CLI/TUI apps.

It has two jobs:

• provide a small runtime layer for exact -h, -v, -u, and conf
• sync canonical root files such as install.sh, push_release_upgrade.sh, and baseline contract tests into app repos

Runtime

from pathlib import Path

from rgw_cli_contract import AppSpec, run_app

APP_SPEC = AppSpec(
    app_name="demo",
    version="0.0.0",
    help_text="demo\n",
    install_script_path=Path(__file__).resolve().with_name("install.sh"),
    no_args_mode="dispatch",
)


def dispatch(argv: list[str]) -> int:
    print(argv)
    return 0


raise SystemExit(run_app(APP_SPEC, ["-h"], dispatch))

Sync

Create cli_contract.toml in an app repo, then run:

PYTHONPATH=src python -m rgw_cli_contract.sync /path/to/app

Supported install strategies:

• standalone-binary for tagged release bundles that contain <app>/<app>
• python-source for tagged source bundles that contain main.py and _version.py

Source installers may also inline small app-specific hook snippets through optional install_*_path keys in cli_contract.toml.

Use --check to fail when managed files have drifted.
