## Usage

Add commands to the pyproject.toml or pyqwe.toml file.

🚨**NOTE** - If you have both a pyproject.toml and a pyqwe.toml file, the pyqwe.toml
file will be used and the pyproject.toml file will be ignored.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
flask = "flask_app:run"
say_hello = "*:echo Hello World"
```

If you're using a pyqwe.toml file you can drop the `[tool.pyqwe]`

```toml
flask = "flask_app:run"
say_hello = "*:echo Hello World"
```

To see information on the available commands in the toml file you can run:

```bash
pyqwe list
# or
pyqwe ls
# or
qwe list
# or
qwe ls
```

You can run the commands by using the command name:

```bash
pyqwe flask
# or
qwe flask
```

Running `pyqwe` or `qwe` without any option or command 
will show all available commands
in a menu you can choose from.

```bash
pyqwe
# or
qwe
```

```text
🚥|🏎️
0 : Exit
1 : flask
2 : say_hello
Select a command to run [0]:
```

Choosing `1` will run the `flask` command.

## Python commands

For Python, the commands are structured like (package &/ module):function

### Package example

```text
project/
    flask_app/
        __init__.py
```

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
flask = "flask_app:run"
```

This command will run the function
`run()` from the `__init__.py` file in the `flask_app` package.

### Module example

```text
project/
    app.py
```

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
flask = "app:run"
```

This command will run the function
`run()` from the `app.py` file.

Now run the pyqwe command:

```bash
pyqwe flask
```

This will start the Flask app.

## *:... commands (terminal)

Any command that starts with `*` will be run using subprocess.

For example:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
say_hello = "*:echo Hello World"
```

Now running the pyqwe command:

```bash
pyqwe say_hello
```

Will print `Hello World`.

### Run as shell

To run the command as a subprocess shell command, add the `shell` key to the
command.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
say_hello = "*shell:echo Hello World"
```

### Change the working directory

You can change the working directory of a subprocess by adding the folder
within parentheses to the command, `(node_app)` for example.

**The folder must be relative** to the pyproject.toml file.

**Absolute paths are not supported**.

**Moving up directories is not supported**, `../node_app` for example.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
npm_install = "*(node_app):npm install"
```

The `shell` key is still available when changing the directory.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
npm_install = "*shell(node_app):npm i"
```

## Grouped commands

You can group commands together in a list to have one pyqwe command run
multiple commands.

Grouped commands can also be run in Step, Sync, or Async mode. Async being the
default.

This will run the commands in the group in sequence, pausing for confirmation
between each command:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
group = [
    "@step",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 1'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 2'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 3'"
]
```

This will run the commands in the group in sequence, one after the other:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
group = [
    "@sync",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 1'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 2'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 3'"
]
```

This will run the commands in the group in parallel:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
group = [
    "@async",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 1'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 2'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 3'"
]
```

Of course, you can leave out the `@step`, `@sync` or `@async` to use the
default async mode.

For example, this will also run the commands in the group in parallel:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
group = [
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 1'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 2'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 3'"
]
```

## Waiting before starting a runner

Sometimes you might need to have a runner wait before starting. This might
be the case if you have a group of runners in async mode but one runner
connects to another.

You can tell a runner to sleep for a number of seconds by using the sleep
for marker:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
group = [
    "@async",
    "*:~10~ echo 'Hello, World! 1'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 2'",
    "*:echo 'Hello, World! 3'"
]
```

This also works on module runs:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
flask = "~10~ flask_app:run"
```

Each of the examples above will sleep for 10 seconds before the runner will
start.

## Using environment variables

To use environment variables in the command, use the `{{ }}`
markers.

pyqwe will evaluate any environment variables that are set before running any
commands.

If pyqwe detects an environment variable that is not set, it will raise an
error. An error will
also be raised if environment variables are detected, and you do not have
`python-dotenv` installed.

Here's an example of setting an environment variable in a command:

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
talk = "*shell:echo {{MESSAGE}}"
```

pyqwe uses `load_dotenv()` from `python-dotenv` to load the `.env` file. You
can change the name of the file to load, or
add multiple env files by setting the `__env_files__` settings key.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
__env_files__ = [".env", ".env.local"]
talk = "*shell:echo {{MESSAGE}}"
```

This is the same as running `load_dotenv(".env")` and
`load_dotenv(".env.local")`.

If you want to disable pyqwe from doing anything with environment variables,
you can set the `__env_ignore__` settings
key to `true`.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
__env_ignore__ = true
talk = "*shell:echo {{MESSAGE}}"
```

This will disable the environment variable evaluation and loading of the `.env`
file, and result in `{{MESSAGE}}` being
printed to the console in this case.

## Clearing the terminal setting

Setting the `__clear_terminal__` setting option to true will clear the
terminal immediately after the `pyqwe` command is run. Results may very on
this setting between terminals and OS platforms.

This option is set to false by default.

```toml
[tool.pyqwe]
__clear_terminal__ = true
talk = "*shell:echo {{MESSAGE}}"
```

## Other commands

`pyqwe` `-h` or `--help` will display help information.

`pyqwe` `--version` or `-v` will display the version of pyqwe.
