Api

Start a script by calling a function named script() with the name of the script as the first arguement. Then you can specify the rest of the script by chaining the run() and execute() methods.

To start a script just use the rs command by doing rs <name of the script>

/**
 * How to use run()
 * run() take one or more commands and execute them
 */
run('ls').run('cat package.json')
run('ls', 'cat package.json')
// In each case `ls` will be executed then `cat package.json`

/**
 * How to use execute()
 * execute() take a javascript and execute it
 */
execute((args) => console.log(`The arguments are: ${args.join(',')}`))
// args will the args of the provided when the scripts is called
