This is an implementation of an idea we discussed a while ago; a launcher for town-specific
commands.
The idea is to put town commands in one of three places:
- /town/launcher/core
- /town/launcher/contrib
- /town/launcher/admin
and pair each command with a corresponding .yml file.
For example, the `aup` command is a simple wrapper around elinks that opens our code of conduct. I
put the executable `aup` in /town/launcher/core and matched it with /town/launcher/aup.yml. The
purpose of the yaml file is to provide documentation for your executable, so `aup.yml` looks like:
```yaml
shortDesc: View the town's Acceptable Use Policy
longDesc: |
This command will open our code of conduct, a type of document that evokes the Acceptable Use
Policies that governed servers like this in the past. It will open the elinks browser to a
page on the wiki.
examples: |
$ town aup # open the aup
$ town aup --rainbow # open the aup with rainbow colors
maintainer: vilmibm
```
and using the launcher is like:
$ town aup
$ town aup --rainbow
$ town writo
$ town admin ban vilmibm
You can see all the commands with `town help` as well as their descriptions; `town help
aup` would show you the docs from `aup.yml`.
I'd love feedback on this approach while I wrap up this implementation. I can put it up on
git.tilde.town if anyone desires to collaborate (and let me know if you want a git.tilde.town
account).
Remaining TODOs:
- [ ] make tab completion available for common shells
- [ ] document / script submitting a tool for inclusion in contrib
- [x] make little wrappers for things like `mail` and `chat`
- [x] fix arg passing
- [x] test with a command that makes use of stdin/stdout
- [x] add all existing commands to the buckets
- [x] add to users' paths
