GSTame
Node library and command-line tool to help developers maintain Google Apps Script projects.
Install with npm:
$ npm install -g gstame
Command-line
Start authenticating to grab a token to your Google Drive:
$ gstame auth
You can then create a new Apps Script project in your Drive account:
$ gstame create
Then list projects in your account:
$ gstame list
Project1
Project2
To save a project to the current folder like:
$ gstame pull Project1
Wrote Dialog.html
Wrote DialogJavaScript.html
Wrote Sidebar.html
Wrote Stylesheet.html
Wrote SidebarJavaScript.html
Wrote Code.gs
Modify it locally, and push back!
$ gstame push Project1
Updated Stylesheet.html
Updated Code.gs
Updated Dialog.html
Updated DialogJavaScript.html
Updated Sidebar.html
Updated SidebarJavaScript.html
Open projects in Script Editor to rename, publish, etc:
$ gstame open Project1
Future
More than offering a command line tool, I'd like to enable real local development of Google Apps Script using Node.js stubs.
For instance, take this typical Code.gs
file:
{ DocumentApp ;}
With the right stubs immitating Google elements and ui, you could test your gs
with your favorite Node testing tools:
var assert = assert;var myProject = ;var DocumentApp = ; ;
Talking about node packages, it should be possible to allow developers to define Node dependencies for their gs
code using npm, and have these bundled/compiled to something that Google can execute on push
.
Please let me know if you have any feedback on these!
