has
has checks presence of various command line tools on the PATH and reports their installed version.
How ?
Install the has script. There is no dependency apart from bash itself.
$ has node npm java git gradle
✔ node 8.2.1
✔ npm 5.3.0
✔ java 1.8.0
✔ git 2.14.1
✔ gradle 4.0.1
If everything is good has exits with status code 0. The status code reflects number of commands not found on your path.
$ has node go javac
✔ node 8.2.1
✔ go 1.8.3
✘ javac
And echo the status:
$ echo $?
1
Installing
has is a single bash script that does it all. Just download the script and make it available on your $PATH. However, to make it even simpler, just follow one of these methods.
Cloning the Repo
Just execute the following command in a terminal: it clones has repo and installs it into your path.
git clone https://github.com/kdabir/has.git && cd has && sudo make install
For a non-root installation:
git clone https://github.com/kdabir/has.git
cd has
make PREFIX=$HOME/.local install
To update just do a git fetch or make update followed by the appropriate make install command.
Downloading to a file
curl -sL https://git.io/_has > /usr/local/bin/has
curl -sL https://git.io/_has | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/has >/dev/null
These commands are safe to be called multiple times as well (to update has)
Running directly off the Internet
If you are lazy, you can run has directly off the Internet as well:
curl -sL https://git.io/_has | bash -s git node npm
✔ git 2.17.1
✔ node 11.11.0
✔ npm 6.7.0
ProTip: if that's too much typing every time, setup an alias in your .bashrc/.zshrc file:
alias has="curl -sL https://git.io/_has | bash -s"
And use it
$ has git
✔ git 2.17.1
$ type has
has is aliased to `curl -sL https://git.io/_has | bash -s'
Command not understood by has?
Let's say $ has foobar returns foobar not understood, because has may not have whitelisted foobar.
In such cases, pass HAS_ALLOW_UNSAFE=y has foobar. This should still check for existance of foobar and tries to detect version as well.
The .hasrc file
has looks for .hasrc file in the directory from where has command is issued. This file can contain commands that has
will check for. List one command per line. Lines starting with # are treated as comments.
Following is example of .hasrc file:
# tools
git
curl
# interpreters
ruby
node
When has is run in directory containing this file, it produces:
$ has
✔ git 2.19.1
✔ curl 7.54.0
✔ ruby 2.3.1
✔ node 10.7.0
Also, CLI arguments passed to has are additive to .hasrc file. For example, in the same dir, if the following command is fired,
has checks for both commands passed from cli args and provided in .hasrc file.
$ has java
✔ java 11.0.1
✔ git 2.19.1
✔ curl 7.54.0
✔ ruby 2.3.1
✔ node 10.7.0
Pro Tip: commit .hasrc file in root of your project. This can work as a quick check for confirming presence all command
line tools required to build and run your project.
On machines that don't even have has installed, your project's .hasrc is honored by this command:
curl -sL https://git.io/_has | bash -s
