1. create new bash script (without repo)

bashew.sh script                    # will interactively ask for author & script details
bashew.sh -f script                 # will create new script with random name
bashew.sh -f -n "../list.sh" script # will create new script ../list.sh

Example:

$ bashew script
⏳  1. first we need the information of the author
Author full name         (pforret) > Peter Forret
Author email             (peter@forret.com) > 
Author (github) username (pforret) > 
⏳  2. now we need the path and name of this new script/repo
Script name (./bespoke_bunny.sh) > 
⏳  3. give some description of what the script should do
Script description (This is my script bespoke_bunny) > process log files
⏳  Creating script ./bespoke_bunny.sh ...
./bespoke_bunny.sh

$ bashew -f script 
⏳  Creating script ./mediums_appease.sh ...
./mediums_appease.sh

2. create new bash project folder/repo (with README.md, CI/CD)

$ bashew project               # will interactively ask for author & script details
or
$ bashew -f project            # will create new project with random name
or
$ bashew -f -n "tango" project # will create new project in folder "tango"

Example:

$ bashew -f project
⏳  Creating project ./bounden_brawled ...
CHANGELOG.md README.md VERSION.md LICENSE .gitignore .env.example bounden_brawled.sh bitbucket-pipelines .github  
✅  next step: 'cd ./bounden_brawled' and start scripting!

3. create a bash script repo, with CI/CD, with README, with tests, with versioning ...

• on github.com/pforret/bashew, click on 'Use this template'
• then clone your new repo

$ git clone https://github.com/<you>/<your repo>.git
$ cd <your repo>
$ ./bashew.sh init             # will ask for details and initialise/clean up the repo

and then, if you have setver.sh:

$ setver push          # will commit and push new code
$ setver new patch     # will set new version to 0.0.1
$ setver set 1.0.0     # when your first working version is committed

4. git clone into new repo

$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/pforret/bashew.git <newname>
$ cd <newname>
$ ./bashew.sh init             # will ask for details and iniialise/clean up the repo
