Install and use JBang from Python-based projects.
Lets you use your own local scripts, JBang AppStore alias or any network reachable jar or Maven artifact.
The jbang.exec()
function accepts a string that will be passed as the command-line arguments to the jbang
executable.
Given this script test.py
:
#! /usr/bin/env python
import jbang
jbang.exec('properties@jbangdev')
Now you can invoke the test
script from the command-line:
python test.py
You can easily pass command-line arguments around:
import sys
args = ' '.join(sys.argv1:])
jbang.exec('com.myco.mylib:RELEASE ' + args)
So now if you run python test.py arg1 arg2
, arg1 arg2
will be appended to the command executed.
When you run pip install
- JBang and other dependencies will be installed. This uses the app setup
command.
Opening a new terminal or shell may be required to be able to use the jbang
command from the system PATH
.
This was made as a quick hack to see if it was possible to use JBang from Python based on jbang-npm. If you have any ideas on how to improve this, please open an issue or PR and lets see where this brings us.
- jgo - allows execution of Maven artifacts by using Maven.
