dq

Check how developer friendly your machine is!

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/core/dq.sh | sh

This should produce output like :

✔ curl
✔ git
✔ java
✔ node
✔ perl
✔ python
✔ ruby
✔ vi
Your dq is 8 / 8

There is more to it. Depending on what you develop, we have got some preselected profiles:

Minimal

To see if you have some common commands installed that a developer machine usually needs curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/core/dq.sh | sh

shell tools

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/shell/dq.sh | sh

ruby dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/ruby_dev/dq.sh | sh

frontend dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/frontend_dev/dq.sh | sh

java dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/java_dev/dq.sh | sh

clojure dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/clojure_dev/dq.sh | sh

groovy dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/groovy_dev/dq.sh | sh

scala dev

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/scala_dev/dq.sh | sh

db

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/db/dq.sh | sh

all

Feeling courageous, see what all you have got :

curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/all/dq.sh | sh

This checks for about 41 commands on your box

Rolling out your own

When you need to mix and match it equally simple. Checkout the repo, and execute from the root:

ruby build.rb <group1> <group2>... | sh

For example, if you develop frontend apps with node/ruby and use some typical databases

ruby build.rb ruby_dev frontend_dev db| sh

or, you develop server side java/groovy and use some common databases

ruby build.rb java_dev groovy_dev db | sh

There no external gem dependency, you just need to have ruby though.

About

Ever got onto a new machine or a remote server ? If you develop, you almost certainly need to check availability of your tool-chain on command line. DQ is intended to relieve you from pain of checking each command individually.

It was named DQ as Developer Quotient (or Developer Friendliness Quotient of a machine), which may not be the most apt name but that was the best name I could think of.

Contributing

Please submit more command checks, it's very easy to do so. Fork the repo and send PR. Issues and feedback welcomed.

Paranoid ?

Don't want to run curl piping to sh. Understandably, you might be concerned. Worry not.

• The source is hosted and is served directly from github, no app server in the middle.
• If you still want to check, do a curl -sL https://raw.github.com/kdabir/dq/master/bin/core/dq.sh | cat first. (basically, replacing sh with cat, to see the content of the file )
