Repository Details

Single-file dependency-free automation tool written in Bash

Space | build status latest stable version Gitter

Space.sh

Welcome to Space!

This tool is not for the faint of heart, but here we go!

The Space.sh is a single file program, referred to as Space, that relies only on Bash version 3.2 or later as dependency for loading and running configuration files and invoking programs in a structured manner.

Space assembles shell script applications built out of reusable modules and it also provides automation features.

One could say "it's like Ansible but written in Bash".

Space provides the notion of Modules, which in essence are Git repositories filled with user content defined as Space descriptions and operations. Modules can also point to other modules, so it is possible to create content on top of other users' work.

Space is part of Space.sh and can be found at https://space.sh.

Dependencies

Space requires Bash version 3.2 or later.

Some external programs related to I/O operations are not POSIX 1003.1 compliant. Non-standard programs have been tested to work with:

  • GNU/Linux
  • BusyBox/Linux (Android)
  • MacOS 10+

Quick start

Please choose one of the methods below for installing Space or read the installation documents in the /doc directory for the complete guide.

Automated install

curl https://get.space.sh/ | sh

mkdir space
curl https://space.sh/static/download/space-1.5.0/space-1.5.0.tar.gz | tar xvfz - -C ./space && cd ./space && ./space /install/

Note: this exact method does not check for the integrity of the downloaded .tar.gz file. It is possible to do so while still performing a manual install, please refer to the install documentation.
