Direct binaries in Zesk Build

🛠️ Guide · ⬅ Home


The included binaries at bin/build/ are:

  • tools.sh - source this to load all of Zesk Build. Run it with a defined function to run that function: bin/build/tools.sh urlFetch 'https://.../'
  • deprecated.sh - Run this on your code to update it to the latest. May break it, so use source control.
  • repair.sh - identicalRepair with some automatic configuration for your project
  • map.sh - mapEnvironment but can operate standalone (can move and run independently of other code)
  • need-bash.sh - For Docker image installs which lack bash (usually running sh). This script enables install of bash to run tools.sh properly. (used by alpineContainer specifically)
  • bash-build.sh - Ensures base packages in an operating system exist and loads Zesk Build and sets up a .bashrc file with any desired configuration

The other binaries at bin/build/ are:

  • application.sh - Copy this to your project to your bin directory and create bin/tools - loads Zesk Build and your tools
  • install.sample.sh - Create your own install-bin-build.sh
  • test.sample.sh - Create your own bin/test.sh
