Commands orchestrator

A simple tools which allows to run set of shell commands in a script like manner but on steroids.

Why?

An initial problem which this tool tries to solve is to run several subscripts in parallel. This can easily be achieved by using bash & but you will not be able to wait until all background tasks will be finished to run next loop.

How?

Tool usage is:

  -u    Check if newer version is available and self-update
  -v    Print version end exit
  -vv   Verbose output

It takes config of the following format:

vars:
  test: 123
  sleep_time: 1

play:
  - steps:
      - sleep {{.sleep_time}}
      - ./examples/test.sh
      - exit 121

  - steps:
      - echo {{.test}}

  - steps:
      - sleep 2
      - ./examples/test.sh
      - ./examples/test.sh
      - exit 1

And executes steps one by one. Step is running all commands of single step in parallel. So in example above there will be 3 parallel run on the first step and 4 for second step. Output is piped into back into terminal.

Output

In result run it will print table with run summary and also dump all output to temporary location. Example output:

NAME    START           END             DURATION        STATUS  COMMAND                 LOGS AT

Vars templating

It is possible to use templating for commands. In order to specify variables for templating define vars top level key with set of values. In the command it is required to add gotpl syntax expression to reference variable name.

For example:

vars:
    here_goes_keys: "value"

play:
    - steps:
        - echo {{.here_goes_keys}}

Will use value from vars section.

Another example is here.
