[haxelibrarian] Bash script to list description of libs (does `haxelib info` of each `haxelib search` result)

1

Not a big contribution to science.
But in case it is useful to someone, here is a little bash script.
It simply does a haxelib info for each result of haxelib search WORD, and drops the list of releases.

For example:

localuser@localhost> haxelibrarian bootstrap

Here’s the script if you’re interested:

#!/bin/bash
# Simply shows haxelib package description for each match of WORD

if [[ $# -lt 1 || $1 = -h || $1 = --help ]]; then
    echo "haxelibrarian makes an 'haxelib info' for each 'haxelib search WORD' result"
    echo "Missing search WORD"
    exit 1
fi

first=1
for lib in $( haxelib search "$1" | head -n -1 ); do
    [[ -z $first ]] && echo "----------------------------------------------------"
    haxelib info "$lib" | sed '/^Releases:/,$d'
    unset first
done
