A Trotfile.toml file is a TOML file.
[actions]
# NOTE: myaction is multiline
myaction='''
echo 1 - Line 1
echo 2 - Line 0x2
echo 3 - Line III
'''
TOML files are a user friendly alternative to JSON files. Since the Trotfile is a TOML file you can use TOML comments and multiline strings
[actions]
start='node index.js'
init='node initialize.js'
The [actions] section specifies the various actions that can be run. The left hand value is the name of the action and the right hand side is run as a bash script when specified. For example trot start would run 'node index.js' under a bash script.
Since the actions are run in a bash script returns via exit, arguments via $* or $1, or bash functions are valid.
[env]
WORLD='World'
[action]
hello='echo Hello $WORLD'
The [env] section specifies environmental variables to be added to any run shells.
[actions]
pyhello={ shell='python3', action='print("Hello")' }
Intead of running the action as a bash script you can specify a different shell to be used.
The following shell types are spported: bash, node, perl, python2, python3, and sh.
