Objectives

Multiple sessions / different usage:

Check if there is a session, default to USER name, can be provided

• create session config
  • list and allow selection of available sources, interfaces, and context
  • how to define important context? e.g. with the sound interface, what is the difference between a driver and a required dependencies of a programs? how to show the relation between a dependencies its program?
  • if there was no argument for the session creation it takes the USER name has name
  • test session config can work on system and session

if a session with the given name exist display the config

Check if the build for given name exist

Multiple package manager / sources:

• test if session is configured for the current user
• build session
  • create script install;update;clean
  • post install action ? services to enable ? Other Config file to add, e.g. kanata config file (script that check and replace already exist) ?
  • 2 type of things to do, install something, configure
  • packages not in the list of data with special install Neovim, nextcloud
• detect change from session / and packages
• diff when rebuilding a session between tmp and newly created

Check if the build/scripts are in the Active directory

if every thing has been checked prompt with diff between currently installed and scripts in active dir

limitations

sometimes i do not have privilages access to base tool, language, available on any mac or linux

• AWK to parse data, #!/bin/sh
• do we need to separate the data ? packages.csv in different source?
