# shellexeclist
List all executables called by a shell script.
Take this tool as a package maintainer's knife to check if all needed 3rd binaries are referenced
## Usage
```shell
usage: shellexeclist [-h] [--forceshell FORCESHELL] files [files ...]
a tool to list executables called by a shell script
positional arguments:
files Files to analyze
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--forceshell FORCESHELL
Force to interpret as shell x
```
By default the used shell is guessed by the shebang, to override that decision pass `--forceshell=` to CLI.
## Currently supported shells
- bash
- sh (POSIX shell)
- ksh
- zsh
if a not supported shell is found interpretation will fall back to *POSIX shell*
## Example
```shell
shellexeclist testfiles/K01speech-dispatcher
```
returns
```shell
[
dirname
echo
exit
install
ln
log_daemon_msg
log_end_msg
set
sh
sleep
start-stop-daemon
test
```
meaning that this particular script calls all of the mentioned executables in some way
## Note
There's is no way to tell if a script is gracefully handling missing executables - this process still requires manual inspection of the sources
