Setting up Bashlib

Requirements

  • Node >= 16.0.0

Setup

Using github 

git clone git@github.com:SolidLabResearch/Bashlib.git
cd Bashlib
npm install 
npm run build
After the install, add an alias to your .bashrc for convenience: 
alias sld="node /path/to/folder/.../bin/solid.js"

Using NPX 

npx solid-bashlib
This will automatically install any dependencies. You can add an alias to your .bashrc for convenience: 
alias sld="npx solid-bashlib"

Note that while more straightforward, using NPX incurs a performance penalty of up to 1 second! Consider installing the tool via Github to speed things up!
