About:
dhall-bash is a compiler that transforms Dhall configurations into executable Bash scripts. It enables you to leverage Dhall's powerful type system and functions to generate dynamic, safe, and maintainable shell scripts. This tool bridges the gap between declarative configuration and imperative shell execution.
Key Features:
  • Compiles Dhall expressions to POSIX-compliant Bash
  • Preserves Dhall's type safety and import system
  • Supports generating shell functions and environment variables
  • Enables configuration reuse across different systems
Use Cases:
  • Generating dynamic deployment scripts from typed configurations
  • Creating safe and maintainable CI/CD pipeline scripts
  • Managing environment variables and secrets via Dhall
Alternatives:
  • dhall-json – dhall-json targets JSON/YAML output, while dhall-bash specifically generates executable Bash code
  • nix – Nix is a full package manager, whereas dhall-bash is a focused configuration-to-script compiler
