using bashly without ruby or docker #540
Description
Description
hi.
i really love bashly, it's honestly life changing, but i really hate that i either need a ruby install, or docker, to use it. it's the only thing i have ruby installed on my system for, since i dont like waiting for docker every time to build. (i guess i could create a daemon using compose that mounted my code dir and run the bashly commands there.... its lots of effort regardless)
i am not very familiar with ruby packaging and bundling, but I thought it might be a fun side-project to try to compile a giant redistributable bashly binary.
my thought was maybe i could try to bundle bashly and then just put that code into some binary with a ruby runtime and package that together.
i was curious if you had any experience with this, or if you knew of any weird libraries or ruby functionality that you are using within bashly which might make this difficult or impossible? or maybe i am on a wrong track and there is a hidden secret easy way to use bashly as single binary
if not i will try to do some research and see if i can hack something out.
