compose-up...t-symlinks(1)

📦 version 0.1.51, in fedora 43, fedora 44

okay bestie, so the manual name is compose-up...t-symlinks(1) (they truncated it for the header, iconic of them) and this is a General Commands Manual situation. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

compose-update-latest-symlinks — creates the symbolic links of minor and major version to the given latest compose 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

compose-update-latest-symlinks [OPTIONS...]  COMPOSE_PATH

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so compose-update-latest-symlinks creates and updates symbolic links of minor and major version, and it points them at the latest generated compose. it's giving matchmaker but for symlinks 💅

the required path should point to a directory where symlinks should be updated. like, that's the whole assignment, no cap.

here's the vibe: the tool finds all symlinks of the form latest-<NAME>-X.Y.Z with the longest version. then it creates shorter symlinks with fewer version components. slay. 🔥

so, for example, if the directory contains latest-X-1.0.0, latest-X-1.0.1 and latest-X-1.1.0, it will create:

  • latest-X-1.0 -> latest-X-1.0.1
  • latest-X-1.1 -> latest-X-1.1.0
  • latest-X-1 -> latest-X-1.1
⚠️ heads up bestie: there is an expectation that only one product will be present in the directory. one product, one main character, periodt. 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -h, --help — print help and exit. the classic. when in doubt, ask for help, we love a self-aware queen 🙈
  • -n, --dry-run — only print what symlinks would be created, do not actually perform any actions. it's the "add to cart but never check out" option, lowkey obsessed, nothing gets touched 💖

💀 EXIT CODE 💀

this tool exits with a status code of 0 on success and a non-zero value on failure. so if it's 0, we ate. if it's not 0, something went sideways 😭
