Introduction
============

Make single-file builds of Python tools using `zapp`_, `shiv`_, or `pex`_.

Repositories
------------

Binary distributions:

* https://pypi.org/project/toolmaker/

Source code:

* https://gitlab.com/sinoroc/toolmaker
* https://github.com/sinoroc/toolmaker

Usage
=====

.. code::

$ toolmaker --help
usage: toolmaker [-h] [--version] [--config CONFIG]
[--build | --rebuild | --delete] [--all]
[tool [tool ...]]

Make single-file builds of Python tools using zapp, shiv, or pex

positional arguments:
tool apply action on this tool(s)

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--version show program's version number and exit
--config CONFIG, -c CONFIG
configuration file (default:
/home/sinoroc/.config/toolmaker/toolmaker.cfg)
--build, -b build selected tool(s)
--rebuild, -r rebuild selected tool(s)
--delete, -d delete selected tool(s)
--all, -a apply action on all tools

Configuration
-------------

By default this tool looks for a configuration file at the following location:

* ``${HOME}/.config/toolmaker/toolmaker.cfg`` on *Linux*

* ``%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\toolmaker\toolmaker.cfg`` on *Windows*

.. code::

[toolmaker.tool.defaults]
tools_directory = ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:deptree]
entry_point = deptree.cli:main
requirements =
deptree

[toolmaker.tool.pex:http]
entry_point = http.server

[toolmaker.tool.shiv:shiv]
entry_point = shiv.cli:main
requirements =
shiv

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:something]
entry_point = something.cli:main
requirements =
--no-index
SomeRandomProject --find-links /path/to/location
requirements_txts =
requirements.txt
more.txt

Action
------

The action can be specified on the command line. Either one of:

* ``--build``, ``-b`` to build (already existing tools are skipped);
* ``--rebuild``, ``-r`` to rebuild (already existing tools are rebuilt);
* ``--delete``, ``-d`` to delete (tool target file is deleted if it exists,
then its parent directory is deleted if it is empty).

The default action when no flag is specified is to build the tools.

Configuration
=============

Place tools in current directory
--------------------------------

.. code::

[toolmaker.tool.defaults]
tools_directory =
tool_directory =

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo]
# ./foo

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:bar]
# ./bar

Place tools in specific directory
---------------------------------

.. code::

[toolmaker.tool.defaults]
tools_directory = /somewhere
tool_directory =

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo]
# /somewhere/foo

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:bar]
# /somewhere/bar

Place tools in subdirectories
-----------------------------

.. code::

[toolmaker.tool.defaults]
tools_directory = /somewhere

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo0]
# /somewhere/foo0/foo0

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo1]
tool_directory = foo0
# /somewhere/foo0/foo1

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo2]
# /somewhere/foo2/foo2

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo3]
tool_file = foo0
# /somewhere/foo3/foo0

Example to use with GNU stow
----------------------------

To use in combination with `GNU Stow`_:

.. code::

[toolmaker.tool.defaults]
tools_directory = ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo0]
# ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker/foo0/foo0

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo1]
tool_directory = foo0
# ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker/foo0/foo1

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo2]
# ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker/foo2/foo2

[toolmaker.tool.zapp:foo3]
tool_file = foo0
# ~/.local/bin/.toolmaker/foo3/foo0
