Crate shell2batch

shell2batch

Coverts simple basic shell scripts to windows batch scripts.

While it is not really possible to take every shell script and automatically convert it to a windows batch file, this library provides a way to convert simple basic shell commands to windows batch commands.
The original goal of this library is to provide users of cargo-make a way to write simple tasks with shell scripts without duplicating their code for each platform.

It is possible to provide custom conversion hints by using the # shell2batch: prefix (see below example).

Examples

extern crate shell2batch;

fn main() {
    let script = shell2batch::convert(
        r#"
        export FILE1=file1
        export FILE2=file2

        #this is some test code
        cp ${FILE1} $FILE2
        cp -r ${DIR1} $DIR2

        #another
        mv file2 file3

        export MY_DIR=directory

        #flags are supported
        rm -Rf ${MY_DIR}

        unset MY_DIR

        #provide custom windows command for specific shell command
        complex_bash_command --flag1 value2 # shell2batch: complex_windows_command /flag10 windows_value
        "#
    );

    assert_eq!(
        script,
        r#"
set FILE1=file1
set FILE2=file2

@REM this is some test code
copy %FILE1% %FILE2%
xcopy /E %DIR1% %DIR2%

@REM another
move file2 file3

set MY_DIR=directory

@REM flags are supported
rmdir /S /Q %MY_DIR%

set MY_DIR=

@REM provide custom windows command for specific shell command
complex_windows_command /flag10 windows_value
"#
    );

    println!("Script: {}", script);
}
