scriptManager

Manages the execution of multiple JS scripts of a target project optionally running them in containers. Scripts & lookup directories are defined in the target project`s configuration file.

• Allows to pick & execute scripts from target project`s configuration file or lookup for scripts in configured directories. Helps in deployment tasks/scripts (e.g. building docker images and executing commands) in a more manageble way, instead of having to deal with shell scripts/commands.
• Exposes a CLI tool and a visual interface.
• Optionally can run JS scripts in containers.

Dependencies:

• scriptExecution module to run the Javascript scripts.
• configurationManagement module to lookup and load configuration file.

---

Use cases for running scriptManager in a container as opposed to directly on the host machine OS:

• Ease the development of scriptManager for a specific OS environment (i.e. Linux).
• Not to pollute the host OS environment.
• For a more secure execution, preventing bugs from affecting the host OS & filesystem outside the target project`s root.
• To gain the benifit of controlled container with ability to manipulate folder structure with volumes and create symlinks easily.

---

Development & Contribution:

• scriptManager uses a previous version of itself to run deployment tasks.
