## How ?
Download the `has` file. 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
Just download the `has` script in your path.
git clone https://github.com/kdabir/has.git && cd has && make install
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 2.14.1
✔ node 8.2.1
✔ npm 5.3.0
And if that's too much of typing every time, setup an alias
alias has="curl -sL https://git.io/_has | bash -s"
And use it
$ has git
✔ git 2.14.1
## 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 is 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 dir 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`
