rscripter

Recommended quick setup

I recommend leveraging cargo-generate.

1. If you don't have cargo-generate already, install it:

shell cargo install cargo-generate

1. Generate your repo using this one as a template:

shell cargo generate -n my-rust-scripts aQaTL/rscripter

Take a look at examples in the examples directory.

1. Let's say you want to create a script that pings 1.1.1.1 3 times.

• Start by creating a file in src/bin/

```rust /// src/bin/ping_cldflr.rs

use rscripter::*;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box> { cmd!("ping", "-c", "3", "1.1.1.1")?;

Ok(())

} ```

• Test it

``shell $ cargo run --bin ping_cldflr Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.00s Runningtarget/debug/pingcldflr` ping -c 3 1.1.1.1 PING 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmpseq=1 ttl=56 time=51.9 ms 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmpseq=2 ttl=56 time=51.7 ms 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmpseq=3 ttl=56 time=43.6 ms

--- 1.1.1.1 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2003ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 43.574/49.041/51.858/3.866 ms ```

• You can install all scripts from the bin directory

shell cargo install --path . -f

• Now you can use the scripts without cargo anyhwere

shell me@pc:~$ ping_cldflr ping -c 3 1.1.1.1 PING 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=56 time=51.9 ms 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=56 time=51.7 ms 64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=56 time=43.6 ms me@pc:~$
