gsht is a shell script transpiler that allows you to divide source code in a modular way within a project, to later mix the different files implemented in a single file.

To install or update gsht, you can download and run the script manually, or I used the following cURL or Wget command:

curl -L https://github.com/NekoOs/gsht.sh/releases/download/nightly/gsht > gsht

wget https://github.com/NekoOs/gsht.sh/releases/download/nightly/gsht

To use gsht globally place the generated file in the binaries directory

sudo mv gsht /usr/local/bin/
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/gsht

Imagine a structure like this:

/our-project-path
 ├── sub-folder
 │ └── sub-folder
 │ │ └── file-4.sh
 │ └── file-3.sh
 ├── file-1.sh
 └── file-2.sh

Contents of the file /our-project-path/file-1.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "file 1 here!"

source ./sub-folder/file-3.sh

Contents of the file /our-project-path/file-2.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "file 2 here!"

Contents of the file /our-project-path/sub-folder/file-3.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "file 3 here!"

source ./sub-folder/file-4.sh

Contents of the file /our-project-path/sub-folder/sub-folder/file-4.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "file 4 here!"

source ../../file-2.sh

Run the following:

gsht /our-project-path/file-1.sh --output = file-1-transpilated

Only the input filename is required gsht source [--output=target]. If the name of the output file has not been specified, the script will default to a name based on the input file, for example above something like this: /our-current-path/file-1

The generated content will be:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "file 1 here!"

echo "file 3 here!"

echo "file 4 here!"

echo "file 2 here!"

gsht offers the watch option which will continue to run in your terminal and watch all files re-transpiling automatically:

gsht --watch --input source --output target

• Evaluation of imports with calculated path.

  current_dir=$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")
  source "$current_dir/sub-folder/file.sh"

./tests/01.sh # generated file ./bin/test-01-transpilated
