The ScriptCollection is the place for reusable scripts.

## Reference

The reference can be found [here](https://aniondev.github.io/ScriptCollectionReference/index.html).

## Hints

Most of the scripts are written in [python](https://www.python.org) 3.

Caution: Before executing any script of this repository read the sourcecode of the script (and the sourcecode of all functions called by this function directly or transitively) carefully and verify that the script does exactly what you want to do and nothing else.

Some functions are not entirely available on windows or require common third-party tools. See the [Runtime dependencies](#Runtime-dependencies)-section for more information.

When using ScriptCollection it is not required but recommended for better usability to have [epew](https://github.com/anionDev/Epew) installed.

## Get ScriptCollection

### Installation via pip

pip3 install ScriptCollection

See the [PyPI-site for ScriptCollection](https://pypi.org/project/ScriptCollection)

### Download sourcecode using git

You can simply git-clone the ScriptCollection and then use the scripts under the provided license.

git clone https://github.com/anionDev/ScriptCollection.git

It may be more easy to pip-install the ScriptCollection but technically pip is not required. Actually you need to git-clone (or download as zip-file from [GitHub](https://github.com/anionDev/ScriptCollection) the ScriptCollection to use the scripts in this repository which are not written in python.

## Troubleshooting

It is recommended to always use only the newest version of the ScriptCollection. If you have an older version: Update it (e. g. using pip3 install ScriptCollection –upgrade if you installed the ScriptCollection via pip). If you still have problems, then feel free to create an [issue](https://github.com/anionDev/ScriptCollection/issues).

If you have installed the ScriptCollection as pip-package you can simply check the version using Python with the following commands:

`lang-bash from ScriptCollection.ScriptCollectionCore import ScriptCollectionCore ScriptCollectionCore.get_scriptcollection_version() `

Or you can simply run pip3 freeze folder to get information about (all) currently installed pip-packages.
