Quickstart

1. Create a pask package called a with files in it:

   mkdir pkga
   cd pkga
   mkdir -p pask/tasks
   cat > pask/tasks/mytask << MYTASK
   #!/bin/sh
   
   echo compile task A
   MYTASK
   chmod a+x pask/tasks/mytask
   mkdir files
   touch files/a
   tar cJf ../a-1.0.tar.xz $(ls -1A)
   cd ..
   

2. Do the same thing to create a package called b:

   mkdir pkgb
   cd pkgb
   mkdir -p pask/tasks
   cat > pask/tasks/mytask << MYTASK
   #!/bin/sh
   
   echo compile task B
   MYTASK
   chmod a+x pask/tasks/mytask
   mkdir files
   touch files/b
   tar cJf ../b-1.3.tar.xz $(ls -1A)
   cd ..
   

3. Write out a pask/spec.yml file relative to the root of your project:

   packages:
     - name: a
       version: 1.0
       location: file://<path-to-where-a-was-made>/a-1.0.tar.xz
     - name: b
       version: 1.3
       location: file://<path-to-where-b-was-made>/b-1.3.tar.xz
   

   Pask also accepts HTTP and HTTPS URLs.

4. Have pask install the contents of the packages:

   pask install
   find .
   

5. Run pask run mytask:

   pask run mytask
