A (toy) language that compiles to bash.
You can think of bashup as just a little syntactic sugar sprinkled on top of bash;
any valid bash script is also a valid bashup script.

  *Just a spoonful of sugar makes the bashisms go down...*


.. code:: bash

    #!/bin/bash

    @fn hi greeting='Hello', target {
        echo "${greeting}, ${target}!"
    }

    hi --target='World'


Installation:

.. code:: shell

    $ pip install bashup


Compile and run the above example:

.. code:: shell

    $ bashup -i above_example.bashup -o above_example.sh
    $ bash above_example.sh
    Hello, World!


Or just run it directly:

.. code:: shell

    $ bashup -r above_example.bashup
    Hello, World!


Compiled code (``above_example.sh``):

.. code:: bash

    #!/bin/bash

    #
    # usage: hi [--greeting=<GREETING>] --target=<TARGET> [ARGS]
    #
    hi() {
        local greeting='Hello'
        local target
        local target__set=0
        local args=()

        while (( $# )); do
            if [[ "${1}" == --greeting=* ]]; then
                greeting=${1#--greeting=}
            elif [[ "${1}" == --target=* ]]; then
                target=${1#--target=}
                target__set=1
            else
                args+=("${1}")
            fi
            shift
        done

        if ! (( target__set )); then
            echo "[ERROR] The --target parameter must be given."
            return 1
        fi

        __hi "${greeting}" "${target}" "${args[@]}"
    }

    __hi() {
        local greeting=${1}
        local target=${2}
        shift 2

        echo "${greeting}, ${target}!"
    }

    hi --target='World'


Supported Bash Versions
-----------------------

The generated bash code works with bash 3.1 and above (tested against 3.1 to 4.3).


Nifty Features
--------------

Bashup tries its best to match the indentation of its compiled code against your hand-written bash.
For example:

.. code:: bash

    @fn hi greeting='Hello', target {
      echo "${greeting}, ${target}!"
    }

...compiles to:

.. code:: bash

    #
    # usage: hi [--greeting=<GREETING>] --target=<TARGET> [ARGS]
    #
    hi() {
      local greeting='Hello'
      local target
      local target__set=0
      local args=()

      while (( $# )); do
        if [[ "${1}" == --greeting=* ]; then
          greeting=${1#--greeting=}
          ...
