Declarative shell scripting using Rust native bindings inspired by [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/)

## Getting Started & Documentation

For installation and usage, see our
[Documentation](https://rash.sh/docs/rash/master/getting-started.html#quickstart).

## Why Rash

Manage your scripts in a declarative style.

If you:

- think that long bash scripts are difficult to maintain
- love Ansible syntax to setup your environments

Or use it for your local scripts!

Then keep on reading.

Here is Rash!

### Declarative vs imperative

Imperative: `entrypoint.sh`:

```bash
#!/bin/bash
set -e

REQUIRED_PARAMS="
VAULT_URL
VAULT_ROLE_ID
VAULT_SECRET_ID
VAULT_SECRET_PATH
"

for required in $REQUIRED_PARAMS ; do
[[ -z "${!required}" ]] && echo "$required IS NOT DEFINED" && exit 1
done

echo "[$0] Logging into Vault..."
VAULT_TOKEN=$(curl -s $VAULT_URL/v1/auth/approle/login \
--data '{"role_id": "'$VAULT_ROLE_ID'","secret_id": "'$VAULT_SECRET_ID'"}' \
| jq -r .auth.client_token)

echo "[$0] Getting Samuel API key from Vault..."
export APP1_API_KEY=$(curl -s -H "X-Vault-Token: $VAULT_TOKEN" \
$VAULT_URL/v1/$VAULT_SECRET_PATH | jq -r .data.api_key)

exec "$@"
```

Declarative: `entrypoint.rh`

```yaml
#!/bin/rash

- name: Verify input parameters
assert:
that:
- env.VAULT_URL is defined
- env.VAULT_ROLE_ID is defined
- env.VAULT_SECRET_ID is defined
- env.VAULT_SECRET_PATH is defined

- name: launch docker CMD
command:
cmd: { { rash.argv } }
transfer_pid: yes
env:
APP1_API_KEY: "{{ lookup('vault', env.VAULT_SECRET_PATH ) }}"
```

### Docopts

[docopt](http://docopt.org/) implementation included:

- Easy to define interfaces for command-line app.
- Automatically generate a parser from doc.

Example:

```yaml
#!/usr/bin/env -S rash --
#
# Copy files from source to dest dir
#
# Usage:
# copy.rh [options] ...
# copy.rh
#
# Options:
# -h --help show this help message and exit
# --mode MODE dest file permissions [default: 0644]

- copy:
src: "{{ item }}"
dest: "{{ dest }}/{{ item | split('/') | last }}"
mode: "{{ options.mode }}"
loop: "{{ source | default ([]) }}"
```

### Lightness

All you need to run Rash is a Linux kernel!

You can use it in your favorite IoT chips running Linux or in containers from scratch!

## Status

Stable API with few modules.
