Installation

Install bashly using one of these methods.

Bashly requires Ruby 3.2 or higher (ruby -v).

gem install bashly

Installing Ruby

../installing-ruby/

If you have docker installed, you can create an alias that will run the docker image:

alias bashly='docker run --rm -it --user $(id -u):$(id -g) --volume "$PWD:/app" dannyben/bashly'

The bashly docker image can also be installed using Whalebrew:

whalebrew install dannyben/bashly

Bash Completions

To enable bash completions for the bashly executable itself run:

bashly completions --install

You might need to install the bash-completion package for your operating system if it is not already installed. For example:

brew install bash-completion
# or
sudo apt install bash-completion

To generate bash completions for your own scripts, see
Advanced Features Bash Completion

The bash scripts generated by bashly can run in any shell, but require that bash 4.2 or higher is installed.

Mac users can upgrade bash by running:

brew install bash
