## Overview

**Bodega** is an improved version of [go-task](https://github.com/go-task/task) that brings a slew of new features and improvements. It adds powerful UX features and functional improvements while retaining backwards compatibility. For those of you who do not know, Task is a task runner / Make alternative written in Go. It allows you to define bash script snippets in YML files and provides some advanced features. Some of the features it includes is the ability to define dependencies, running tasks conditionally, caching values, and a built-in method of housing CLI documentation. **Bodega** takes go-task to the next level by improving the TUI experience and including features that allow you to use the project as a CLI-generator.

## Features

### Prompt

A prompt field provides an interactive method of getting user data.
In addition, it controls execution with the `validate` sub-field
which, on correct input, executes the task `answer`.
The user's selection (or input) is available as the .ANSWER template variable

```yaml
---
version: '3'

tasks:
test_prompt:
vars:
TEST: 'string'
prompt:
# available types:
# multiline, multi_select, select, password, confirm, input
type: input
message: What day is it?
# The options sub-field is used with propmpts of type select and multi_select
# options:
# - msg: Sunday
# - Tuesday
# The following is a dynamic option
# - msg:
# sh: date +%A
validate:
sh: '[[ ".ANSWER" == "Tuesday" ]]'
answer:
desc: 'a task executed on valid input only'
cmds:
- echo "successfully executing the answer task"
```

### Initial Shell Script

The field `shell_rc` is used to load common shell scripts or functions.
It can be specified both globally (on the Taskfile level) and locally
(on each individual task). Commands inside each task loads the
`shell_rc` field before exeution.

```yaml
---
version: '3'

shell_rc: |
func(){
echo "global function called!"
}

tasks:
init-script-global:
desc: Testing a local shell_rc field
cmds:
- echo "trying out the global shell_rc field"
- func

init-script:
desc: Testing a local shell_rc field
shell_rc: |
export VAR_INSIDE_INIT_SCRIPT="Hello from init script"
func(){
echo "local function called!"
}
cmds:
- echo "This is a var inside init_script $VAR_INSIDE_INIT_SCRIPT"
- func
- sleep 2 # doing some work
```

### Hide tasks from being listed

The `hide` field allows a task to not be listed with task --list
It can be also templated using Go templates

> remember that Go is strongly typed. comparison must be done between equal types
> use double quotes for literals inside templates

```yaml
---
version: '3'

tasks:
error-with-hide:
desc: A hidden task that exits with an errors
vars:
CGO_ENABLED: 'true'
hide: '{{if eq .CGO_ENABLED "true"}} true else false end'
# hide: true
cmds:
- echo "text"
- exit 1
- echo "unreachable"
```

### Initial Status

The `initial_status` boolean field allows a task to be executed
once if the `status` has been successfully executed once.
An `initial_status` without a `status` is simple ignored

```yaml
---
version: '3'

tasks:
default:
cmds:
- generate-files
- rm -rf directory/
- generate-files

generate-files:
desc: Generate files diescription
cmds:
- mkdir directory
- touch directory/file1.txt
- touch directory/file2.txt
# test existence of files
status:
- test -d directory
- test -f directory/file1.txt
- test -f directory/file2.txt
initial_status: true
```

On running `task default` from the command line, only the first execution of task `generate-files` is done

### Stop commands before execution

Passing the `--debug` makes Task stop before each command execution, even for commands within a variable.

```shell
$ task --debug simple
task: [simple] echo 'hi'
Executing a shell command. Type enter to continue

hi
```

### Aliases

From the command line, you may call a task by its alias instead of its name

```yaml
---
version: '3'

tasks:
echo-with-errors-ignored:
desc: Echoes a string but with errors ignored
# Try calling the task from the command line as `task hello`
alias: hello
cmds:
- cmd: exit 1
ignore_error: true
- echo "Hello World"
```

On the command line type `task hello` to execute the task

### More output messages

Running `task` with more `-v`s produces more verbose output

| Option | Effect |
| ------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `-v` | Output each command executed, task running time |
| `-vv` | Output execution time of each command |

### Interactive Prompt

Executing `task` spawns a REPL-like shell by default. If you would like to execute the default task, please do `task default`

```
user@user:$ task
Type 'help' for a list of commands or 'quit' to exit
task> --list

Tasks

TASK │ ALIAS │ DESCRIPTION
───────────────────────────┼───────┼─────────────────────────────────
echo-with-errors-ignored │ hello │ Echoes a string but with
│ │ errors ignored
generate-files │ │ Generate files diescription
init-script │ │ Testing the new shell_rc field
simple │ │ A simple task with no extra
│ │ features
sleep │ │ zzzzzzz
test_prompt │ │ tests prompt
test_prompt_confirm │ │ test prompt confirm
test_prompt_password │ │ test prompt password

task> simple
task: [simple] echo "Hello"
Hello
task> sleep
task: [sleep] sleep "2"
task> ^D
readline error: EOF
user@user:$
```

### Fancy listing

`task --list` uses the [list](https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbles#list) component from bubbletea

[![bubbletea_list_demo](https://asciinema.org/a/sem2Ac3yZIUJ03HTMHyOEOq7I)](https://asciinema.org/a/sem2Ac3yZIUJ03HTMHyOEOq7I)

### Output custom messages on task success/failure

Customize the output message if the task successfully ran or failed. You can also define a custom message that runs before the task start.

```yaml
---
version: '3'

tasks:
custom-logs:
run: once
desc: 'includes custom messages on start/stop and error'
cmds:
- echo 'hey'
- cmd: exit 99
ignore_error: true
- cmd: exit 12
ignore_error: false
log:
success: 'hello custom-logs task'
start: 'Log message to show before Go starts running the task logic (including env scripts)'
error:
default: 'Log message to show if the cmds return exit code 1 or greater'
codes: # optional!
- code: 12
message: 'code exited with error code 12'
```

If the task exited with a particular error number, you may also tailor a speicific message for each error code with the `codes` field. Running the above task should output:

```
hello custom-logs task
task: [custom-logs] echo 'hey'
hey
task: [custom-logs] exit 99
task: [custom-logs] exit 12
code exited with error code 12
task: Failed to run task "custom-logs": exit status 12

```

## Installation

There are several ways you can install this CLI. You can:

1. Use our bash scripts which will handle everything automatically with as few dependencies as possible
2. Compile the program using Go and add it to your `PATH`
3. Install it via an NPM convienience wrapper
4. Download the pre-built binary from the GitLab or GitHub releases page and then place it in your `PATH`

### Quick Method

If you are looking to install the CLI as quickly as possible then you can run the following script which will install the binary to your `/usr/local/bin` folder on macOS or Linux:

```
curl -sS https://install.doctor/task | bash
```

Or, if you are on Windows, you can install it by running:

```
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://install.doctor/task?os=win'))
```

### Compile Program with Go

You can install the CLI by compiling it from the source as long as you have a recent version of Go installed:

```
git clone https://github.com/megabyte-labs/Bodega.git
cd {{#withLast (split repository.github "/")}}this/withLast
go build -o dist/task cmd/task/task.go
sudo mv ./dist/task /usr/local/bin
```

After you compile the program, you should then move the binary file to a location that is in your `PATH` (which is what the last line does in the snippet above).

### NPM Install Method

Every release is bundled into an NPM package that you can install by running the following command:

```
npm install -g task
```

### Pre-Built Binary

If you trust us (and you should not.. trust.. anybody.. EVER), then you can also download the binary directly from the Bodega GitLab release page or the GitHub release page. After you download the release, you will have to either place the binary somewhere in your `PATH` or run the installer (in the case of the `.deb` or `.rpm` releases, for instance).

## Usage

All of the usage instructions can be found by running `task --help`. After running the command, you should be greeted with the following output:

```
Usage: task [-ilfwvsdm] [--init] [--list] [--force] [--watch] [--verbose] [--silent] [--dir] [--taskfile] [--dry] [--menu] [--summary] [--debug] [task...]

Runs the specified task(s). Runs a built-in shell if no task name
was specified, or lists all tasks if an unknown task name was specified.

Example: 'task hello' with the following 'Taskfile.yml' file will generate an
'output.txt' file with the content "hello".

'''
version: '3'
tasks:
hello:
cmds:
- echo "I am going to write a file named 'output.txt' now."
- echo "hello" > output.txt
generates:
- output.txt
'''

Options:
-c, --color colored output. Enabled by default. Set flag to false or use NO_COLOR=1 to disable (default true)
-C, --concurrency int limit number tasks to run concurrently
--debug stop before each command execution
-d, --dir string sets directory of execution
--dry compiles and prints tasks in the order that they would be run, without executing them
-f, --force forces execution even when the task is up-to-date
-h, --help shows Task usage
-i, --init creates a new Taskfile.yaml in the current folder
-l, --list lists tasks with description of current Taskfile
-a, --list-all lists tasks with or without a description
-m, --menu runs an interactive listing of tasks
-o, --output string sets output style: [interleaved|group|prefixed]
-p, --parallel executes tasks provided on command line in parallel
--server runs as a server
-s, --silent disables echoing
--status exits with non-zero exit code if any of the given tasks is not up-to-date
--summary show summary about a task
-t, --taskfile string choose which Taskfile to run. Defaults to "Taskfile.yml"
--use-tls enable server to use TLS
-v, --verbose count enables verbose mode (repeat option for more output)
--version show Task version
-w, --watch enables watch of the given task
```

### Man Page

Alternatively, if you installed the package via NPM or an installer that set up the man page (e.g. `.deb` or `.rpm`), then you can find usage instructions by running `man task`.

Sponsorship





Dear Awesome Person,


I create open source projects out of love. Although I have a job, shelter, and as much fast food as I can handle, it would still be pretty cool to be appreciated by the community for something I have spent a lot of time and money on. Please consider sponsoring me! Who knows? Maybe I will be able to quit my job and publish open source full time.


Sincerely,

**_Brian Zalewski_**
