Synopsis
========

Basic usage

```

# assignment in opsboy file scope.
foo = bar; # opsboy's assignment syntax. variables can be interpolated like in shell.

# comment in opsboy file.
#foo = bar; # opsboy use # as comment syntax.

# rule and target.

Basically,

    foo {
        directive1;
        directive2;
    }

is a rule. And foo is the target. It's quite similar to Makefile's rules per se.

We use the opsboy compiler to generate standalone Perl scripts that can build a
system environment incrementally through a specification of rules.

./openresty-test.pl make foo

# command
All opsboy syntactic structures and directives are listed below.

# git
git git@github.com location;  # git clone resource to location.

# file
file location; # check if file exist, if not create.

# running
running 'process matching part'; # check the existence of running processes
through the specified command-line string pattern. if no processes match the
pattern, make the current rule fail immediately.

# dep
dep block1 block2 block3; # specifying dependency rule names which must be
checked and fulfilled before running the current rule.

# cwd
 cwd location; # change working directory.

# test
test cmd; # test if the command cmd can run successfully. If not, make the
current rule fail without executing any other commands associated with the
current rule.

# env
env key value; # working like bash's export command;
env PATH '~/git/lua-nginx-module/work/nginx/sbin:$PATH'; # we can interpolate
other environment variables inside the envirment variable values here.

# always
always; # exec blocking without conditions.

# sh
sh 'CMD'; # exec some shell command.

# yum
yum 'PKG'; # package installation through supported package manager (brew, yum,
dnf and pkg_add available now).

# debuginfo
debuginfo 'kernel-`uname -r`'; # install debuginfo.

# prog
prog program; # check whether the program exists and executable in the system's PATH environment.

# fetch
fetch source; # download source from internet with timestamp-checking.

# tarball
tarball file; # tar -xvf or -jxvf file.

# cpan
cpan package; # install perl CPAN packages.

```

Description
===========

This is a rule-based script generator for system environment incremental deployment.

    # on the developer host machine
    ./opsboy samples/openresty-tester.ob -o openresty-tester.pl

    # on the target machine
    ./openresty-test.pl make t-ngx_lua tv-ngx_srcache --git-pull force=1

Installation on the Developer Host Machine

    $ sudo cpan Pegex File::Copy

    This is not required on the target machine though. The target
    machine only needs to have perl 5 installed.
