Another standard library for shell (bash/zsh) with cross-shell support

The std.sh provides various sourceable cross-shell scripts that can be used by downstream as dependencies to detect OS type or Package Manager installations.
As of v1.0.0 only provides system-related functions and variables ONLY.
NOTE: Do not use some of these scripts in CMake-based projects; use built-in variables instead.

Examples of scripts:

• std-sys-os.sh A cross-platform system-detection script - provides variables like OS_LINUX, OS_LINUX_DEBIAN or OS_BSD etc.; use cases include usage for specific system installation via shell scripts
• std-sys-package-manager.sh
  A cross-platform package-manager detection script - provides variables like PM_PKG, PM_DPKG, PM_YUM etc. ; use cases - detection of package manager for C/C++ project dependency installation
• More at doc/std-sh.md

By using basher:

basher install --ssh hinell/std.sh

Use it like so in your script:

inclue hinell/std.sh src/std-sys-os.sh

git clone --depth 1 git@github.com:hinell/std.sh.git /tmp/sh.std
cd ${_}
./config install --user # install to ~/.local/bin 
./config link --user # link to ~/.local/bin - dev-only 
sudo ./config install # install into /usr/bin 

The above will put executable/sourceable scripts into ${HOME}/.local/bin/ folder.
Don't forget to set PATH in your ~/.bashrc/.zshrc if you want to use user-local installation of executable scripts:

if [[ -d "$HOME/.local/bin" ]];
then
    PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
fi

Depending on the installation method, use:

basher uninstall hinell/std.sh
# or
rm $HOME/.local/bin/std-* 
# or

For full details see doc/std-sh.md. E.g.:

source $(which std-sys-os.sh) || { exit 1; }
source $(which std-sys-package-manager.sh) || { exit 1; }
# etc
