Generic CLI task runner

Run all executables local to you project behind namespace (zc).

Example

Consider this example project where scripts, tasks and command line utilities is scattered over time through out the project, or you just keep the scripts semantically separated, and then have to fight your way through the directory structure to find the scripts in order to invoke them.

zc helps keeping your local project tools, scripts and utilities easily accessible at all times.

Installation

via npm

$ sudo npm install -g @zeroconf/cli

or yarn

$ sudo yarn global add @zeroconf/cli

Configuration

There are minor tweaks that can be done via an .env file (dotenv) in the root of you project.

The project path can be configured via PROJECT_PATH or ZC_PROJECT_PATH variables. ZC_PROJECT_PATH takes precedence over PROJECT_PATH. However if no project path is configured, zc will try make a guess where your project root is located.

Environment variableDefault valueDescription
PROJECT_PATH""This value controls where zc consider the root path of the project is, thus where to look for executables from. It can be superseded by ZC_PROJECT_PATH.
ZC_PROJECT_PATH$PROJECT_PATHOverrides PROJECT_PATH. If neither PROJECT_PATH nor ZC_PROJECT_PATH is set, zc will traverse from current working directory and traverse towards / (root) and try to guess where the project root will be. Things such as .git and node_modules directories or .env and package.json files are considered. More will probably come later. If the guessing mechanism isn't sufficient place a .env file in the root of you project and use the PROJECT_PATH or ZC_PROJECT_PATH variables to control where zc should look for executables from.
ZC_BIN_PATHS("$ZC_PROJECT_PATH/.bin" "$ZC_PROJECT_PATH/bin" "$ZC_PROJECT_PATH/scripts" "$ZC_PROJECT_PATH/tasks" "$ZC_PROJECT_PATH/tools" )The directories to look for executables within. NB! per default the task finder mechanism won't recursive inside the ZC_BIN_PATHS, this behavior can however be altered by setting ZC_BIN_PATH_RECURSE=true.
ZC_BIN_PATH_RECURSEfalseControlling whether or not the task finder mechanism should look for tasks recursively from the ZC_BIN_PATHS.
