Description:

scripnix 0.1.12

Replaces the old Scripnix0
project which had grown crufty and was not macOS-friendly.

Motivation
Scripnix was born during my Linux server admin days when I wanted all of
my aliases and scriplets to follow me from machine to machine. Packaging
everything together made installing and keeping up-to-date that much
easier. Writing it was also a bash scripting learning exercise, although
I soon grew to loathe space-containing-filenames and all of the quoting
that implied.
As I moved more to MacOS, the BSD version of most commands clashed with
the GNU/Linux versions that Scripnix assumed. Still wanting those handy
aliases and scriplets on MacOS, I resurrected Scripnix, but with many
more of the commands written in Python, and with Homebrew-supplied GNU
versions of my favourite utilities. The Python rewrite sidestepped much
of the silly bash quoting and syntax, and made testing practical.

Change Log
The current version is 0.1.12. Scripnix is
semver-ish in its versioning scheme.
Scripnix is currently an alpha release, so expect many many breaking
changes. Once ready for prime time, the major version number will jump
to 2 to reflect that this is actually the second incarnation of
Scripnix.

Installation
Following installation using one of the methods below, you may also want
to run the install-scripnix command as the root user to setup the
system-wide configuration. Any other users that also wish to use
Scripnix should also run that command.
The install-scripnix command will also suggest changes to your
~/.bashrc or ~/.profile files to persist Scripnix in your
environment. It will also suggest changes to the /etc/sudoers file
(vi visudo) so that the Scripnix commands can be run via sudo
when necessary.

Homebrew (macOS)
On macOS, Homebrew will take care of installing any dependencies,
including Python 3.
brew tap yukondude/tap
brew install scripnix
install-scripnix

PyPI (POSIX)
On *NIX, you will first need to install Python 3.3 (or higher) using
your preferred method.
pip3 install scripnix
install-scripnix

Development Setup

Install Scripnix, as above, so that all of its dependencies are
available.
Create a Python 3 virtualenv for Scripnix:
mkvirtualenv --python=$(which python3) Scripnix
Clone the Scripnix repo:
git clone https://github.com/yukondude/Scripnix.git
Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-dev.txt -r requirements-test.txt
Install the project in development mode: ./setup.py develop
Run the unit tests to make sure everything is copacetic:
./setup.py test
Pour a snifter of Martell XO and light up a Bolivar Belicoso.
