multi-call CLI (experimental)

multi-call CLI (experimental)#

Warning

This tool originates from zope.meta and has not been extensively tested in the plone.meta context. The default branch is master instead of main. Use with caution.

Synopsis#

multi-call SCRIPT PACKAGES_FILE CLONES_DIR [SCRIPT_ARGS...]

Positional arguments#

SCRIPT

Path to the Python script to run on each package (typically config-package).

PACKAGES_FILE

Path to a text file listing repository names, one per line. Lines starting with # are skipped.

CLONES_DIR

Directory where repositories are cloned. If a repository does not exist here, it is cloned from GitHub. If it already exists, it is cleaned, switched to master, and pulled.

SCRIPT_ARGS

Additional arguments passed to SCRIPT for each package.

Behavior#

For each package listed in PACKAGES_FILE:

  1. If no clone exists in CLONES_DIR, the repository is cloned.

  2. If a clone exists, uncommitted changes are stashed, the master branch is checked out, and the latest changes are pulled.

  3. The specified script is run with the package path and any extra arguments.

Caution

Uncommitted changes are stashed automatically. Use git stash pop to recover them.
