bash8 should be standalone and in pypi

[Antoine "hashar" Musso]

openstack-dev/devstack has a bash linter ./tools/bash8.py :

https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack/blob/master/tools/bash8.py

It would be very nice to make it a standalone module exposed in pypi for other project/folks to reuse/hack.

Sean, are you still working on this? I'd be interested in picking it up if not. I am moving the script to a Github repo and "project-tizing" it at the moment.

I was going to dive in next week, but if you want to instead, that's cool. Start with a clone of the cookie cutter repo.

[Mathew Odden (locke105)]

I have a commit up here to create the project from the upstream repo I put together (didn't know about cookiecutter until you mentioned it)

The repository openstack-dev/bash8 has been created! https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack-dev/bash8,n,z

Cant wait to have a first version uploaded to pypi. I might well create a Debian package for it.

[Mathew Odden (locke105)]

Version 0.1.0 is now uploaded to pypi and available for download. It's pretty much the original script forklifted from DevStack without any big modifications except it has a command line entry point when installed.

[Mathew Odden (locke105)]

I'm going to set this one to finished and open a new bug for having DevStack utilize the new pypi package.
