Script.swift is a small library that lets you write a Swift script with ease by using method chaining, inspired by [bitfield/script](https://github.com/bitfield/script).

Using `Script.swift` with `swift-sh`

When you want a script, you typically want it in a single file. With usual setup using Swift Package Manager to interact with external libraries, you would end up a directory with Package.swift, which is bit much as a script.

By using swift-sh, you only have to take care of a single Swift file for your script, which makes your Swift script as portable as possible.

Examples

<table> <thead> <tr> <th>Source</th> <th>Script</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>

echo.swift

</td> <td>

Script()
    .exec(#"echo "testing""#)
    .stdout()

</td>

</tr> </tbody> </table>
