CLI frontend for mage based on promptui.

Migrating from Makefiles I missed bash completion. It doesn't look like there will be bash completion for mage any time soon, so I wrote this little program.

Install mage first.

Clone or go get this repository and run mage install in $GOPATH/src/github.com/iwittkau/mage-select.

GO111MODULE=off go get github.com/iwittkau/mage-select
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/iwittkau/mage-select
mage install

The mages binary will be installed into $GOPATH/bin.

To select a mage target run:

mages

To abort selection press CTRL+C.

You can also just start to type to search for a target!

The mages command passes all arguments to mage, so you can run mages -h -debug to show the help of a target while debug output is enabled, for example.

There is nothing else to configure and there are no other options or flags at the moment, just run mages and select the mage target.

One little exception: the -version flag is overwritten, because mage-select bundles its own mage. To show the version of mages and its bundled mage, run:

mages -version

mages bundles its own mage and therefor needs to be updated when Mage gets updated. Run mages -version to show the bundled version.
