habitat

Habitat is a lightweight command line tool to manage source and binary dependencies in monorepo, plus dependency integration in CI environment.

It is also easy to use for developers. No need to execute many commands manually, just run ./hab sync . to set up local development environment.

Installation

We provide both a binary (hab.pex) and a wrapper script. You can find them in the releases and choose to download one of them as your need.

The simplest way is to download the wrapper using following instruction:

curl -L -O https://github.com/lynx-infra/habitat/releases/latest/download/hab

Usage

1. Generate habitat configuration file in the repo.

   ./hab config <repo remote uri>
   

   A .habitat file will be generated. it should look like this.

   solutions = [
       {
           'name': '.',
           'deps_file': 'DEPS',  # dependency list
           'url': 'git@github.com:namespace/repo.git'  # main repo's remote url
       }
   ]
   

2. Add a dependency in DEPS file.

   deps = {
       'lib/example': {
           'type': 'git',
           'url': 'git@github.com:namespace/lib.git',
           'branch': 'dev'
       }
   }
   

3. Track habitat wrapper script and configuration files.

   git add hab .habitat DEPS && git commit -m "Add habitat to manage dependencies."
   

4. Integrate the dev branch of dependency to path lib/example.

   ./hab sync .
