A component manager based where your components live in Git.
Project description
Gitvier is a CLI “component management” tool for when you’ve got a container repository and then that repository relies on a bunch of components to operate, which you’re then actively working on those components. As such, it aims to allow the user to try and manage these components, allowing for installing, updating, etc. as well as running commands over some/all components. However, it differs from something like GitMan in that it will not explicitly revert dependencies to specified revisions unless explicitly forced as most likely if you install a component on “master” and the component is currently on branch “develop”, if you run “gitvier update”, you don’t expect that component to be put back onto master, but rather that maybe just do a git pull on this component (and all others). I primarily built this to support the usecase of Submitty and for my research projects.
This borrows concepts heavily from GitMan which is a great dependency manager with Git, but less useful as a “component manager” (hence the existance of this tool).

Gitvier Config File
Gitvier operates over a .gitvier.yml config file which contains the various components of our system. At the root level you can specify a location (defaults to current directory if omitted) where all components would live and components which is a list of components which contain the following elements:
name: <component_name/subfolder where component will be installed to> repo: <git_url> rev: <branch or tag or commit hash or branch/tag@timestamp> commands: <list of bash commands to run after install/update> (optional)
An example of a .gitvier.yml file (taken from Submitty):
location: . components: - name: RainbowGrades repo: https://github.com/Submitty/RainbowGrades rev: master - name: grading repo: https://github.com/Submitty/AutoGrading rev: master
