# release-gitter
|
|
|
|
Easily download releases from sites like Github and Gitea
|
|
|
|
## Original repo
|
|
|
|
Originally hosted at https://git.iamthefij.com/iamthefij/release-gitter.git
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
From pypi `pip install release-gitter`
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can download `release_gitter.py` and run that file as long as you have `requests` installed.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
At minimum, release-gitter can be used to download the latest release file for a given repo using something like the following:
|
|
|
|
release-gitter --git-url https://github.com/coder/super-tool "super-tool-{version}-{system}-{arch}"
|
|
|
|
Originally created for downloading binary releases for [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com) hooks, so it also has features
|
|
to detect the remote repo automatically using `git remote get-url origin`, as well as detecting the currently checked out version
|
|
by parsing metadata files (currently only `Cargo.toml`).
|
|
|
|
In practice, it means that for a project like [StyLua](https://github.com/JohnnyMorganz/StyLua), when run within the repo one would only need to provide:
|
|
|
|
release-gitter --extract-files "stylua" --exec "chmod +x stylua" \
|
|
--map-system Windows=win64 --map-system Darwin=macos --map-system=linux=Linux \
|
|
"stylua-{version}-{system}.zip"
|
|
|
|
And `release-gitter` will get the release version from the `Cargo.toml`, get the URL from the `git remote`, call the Github API and look for a release matching the templated file name, extract the `stylua` file from the archive, and then make it executable. Alternatively, if you're project `--version-git-tag` can be used to pull the version from the latest tag. This will automatically do a shallow fetch (depth = 1), but this can be supressed with `--version-git-no-fetch`.
|
|
|
|
This allows a single command to be run from a checked out repo from pre-commit on any system to fetch the appropriate binary.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, it can be used to simplify install instructions for users by providing the `--git-url` option so it can be run from outside the repo.
|
|
|
|
Full usage is as follows:
|
|
|
|
usage: release-gitter [-h] [--hostname HOSTNAME] [--owner OWNER] [--repo REPO]
|
|
[--git-url GIT_URL] [--version VERSION]
|
|
[--version-git-tag] [--version-git-no-fetch]
|
|
[--map-system MAP_SYSTEM] [--map-arch MAP_ARCH]
|
|
[--exec EXEC] [--extract-files EXTRACT_FILES]
|
|
[--extract-all] [--url-only]
|
|

|
|
--hostname HOSTNAME Git repository hostname
|
|

|
|
look for project metadata
|
|
--version-git-tag, -t
|
|
Get the release version from a git tag
|
|
--version-git-no-fetch
|
|
Shallow fetch tags prior to checking versions
|
|
--map-system MAP_SYSTEM, -s MAP_SYSTEM
|
|
Map a platform.system() value to a custom value
|
|
--map-arch MAP_ARCH, -a MAP_ARCH
|
|
Map a platform.machine() value to a custom value
|
|
--exec EXEC, -c EXEC Shell commands to execute after download or extraction
|
|
--extract-files EXTRACT_FILES, -e EXTRACT_FILES
|
|
A list of file name to extract from downloaded archive
|
|
--extract-all, -x Shell commands to execute after download or extraction
|
|
--url-only Only print the URL and do not download
|
|
|
|
### Pre-Commit usage
|
|
|
|
This can be used a way to wrap a binary release from a Github or Gitea by adding a `pyproject.toml` file to your current project directory and adding a `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` file.
|
|
|
|
Take a look at the `./sample_pseudo_bin` directory to see an example.
