ensure
======
Ensure is a small library to help ensure state on a UNIX system. It is
currently pretty basic and doesn't have much to offer apart from a
file/directory and exec helper.
But with these small pieces more should easily be possible and go offers more
than enough to implement other functions on top of the ensurer interface and
the runner to ensure the state.
how to use
----------
To use this library use one of the provided resources or implement one yourself
with the Ensurer interface.
Either call Ensure on the resource yourself or let one of the runners do it
for all your resources.
```
package main
import (
"io/ioutil"
"os"
"path"
"git.zero-knowledge.org/gibheer/ensure"
"git.zero-knowledge.org/gibheer/ensure/file"
)
func main() {
tmpDir, _ := ioutil.TempDir("", "")
defer os.RemoveAll(tmpDir)
f := &file.F{
Path: path.Join(tmpDir, "test")
}
if !f.Is() {
if err := f.Ensure(); err != nil {
fmt.Fatalf("could not ensure file: %s\n", err)
}
}
// Use a runner to ensure multiple resources blocked by a check.
// In case of the runner, ensure will also run Is() before making changes.
// Better read the documentation, not all resources do that or can do that.
r := &ensure.Runner{
States: []ensure.Ensurer{f},
Is: f.Is,
}
if err := r.Ensure(); err != nil {
fmt.Fatalf("could not ensure directory: %s", err)
}
}
```
