Description

Common installation scripts used in multiple products around the Dexter Industries Galaxy of products.

Installing

The most basic command used for updating/installing script_tools can be:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash

This will get the repository cloned on the Pi machine without installing any packages or dependencies.

Python Package Options

In order to enable the installation of the python package, option --install-python-package is a must. This holds true for both python executables (python and python3) in case you are wondering if this is for --use-python3-exe-too.

The options for the python package that can be appended to this command are (all these 3 options are mutually exclusive):

  • --system-wide - uses sudo for installing the python package system-wide.

  • --user-local - for installing the python package in the home directory of the given user, where no special write/read/execute permissions are required.

  • --env-local - for installing the python package system-wide, but without any special write/read/execute permissions - in order to use this you'll need a virtual environment.

On different distributions, Python 3 can only be used with python3 executable, in which case option --use-python3-exe-too is required.

Apt-Get Package Options

The options that can be added for apt-get/deb packages are:

  • update-aptget - will run sudo apt-get update.
  • --install-deb-debs - will run the sudo apt-get install [dependencies] command which installs the general dependencies.

Selecting a Branch/Tag to Checkout

Also, to this install script you can specify a tag or a branch you want to use, just by passing the name of it. Branches must have this format (master, develop, feature/*, hotfix/*, fix/) whereas tags can have this format (v* or DexterOS*). By default, master branch is pulled.

Installation Examples

To install the python package with sudo and skip installing apt-get packages (though in this case --system-wide can be omitted because it's turned on by default):

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- --install-python-package --system-wide

To install the python package locally in the home directory and skip installing apt-get packages:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- --install-python-package --user-local

To install the python package locally in the home directory, run apt-get update and install apt-get dependencies:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- --install-python-package --user-local --update-aptget --install-deb-deps

To only install script_tools at the designated location without installing the python package and take the version that's pointed by tag DexterOS2.0:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- DexterOS2.0

Or if we want the version that's on develop branch we can do:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- develop

To install packages for python and python3 executables/commands, you can do this:

curl -kL dexterindustries.com/update_tools | bash -s -- --install-python-package --use-python3-exe-too

Updating

For updating the package, you can use the same commands describe at the previous section.
