Lately I've found myself writing small programs that I use across multiple machines. I use gitlab to manage these programs. Is there a command line tool that will help me keep my programs up-to-date?



If this question is too general or too vague, then I can post a simple example to illustrate what I'm interested in.

  • Please extend the question with examples. On what platforms do you run these applications is also required to recommend a distribution method, and the programming scripting language as stated in the comment above is also needed to know if you will be compiling or just running.

I would suggest taking a look at fpm - effing package manager is the name or the docs here. You can use fpm to convert anything to a package, such as RPM, DEB, etc. Pretty solid tutorial here - How To Use FPM To Easily Create Packages in Multiple Formats.



Using fpm you can take builds of your software and generate .deb or .rpm files like this:



$ cd dir_with_my_app_built
$ fpm -s dir -t rpm -C /tmp/project --name project_name
--version 1.0.0 --iteration 1 --depends redhat_dependency1
--description "A sample package" .


Results in this: project_name-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm.
