===================================================================== --- Changes ------------------------------ - AWS (the cli wrapper) now checks for it's required variables *on run*. This accomodates scwrypts which may need to run in multiple regions, but make the downstream scwrypt responsible for adding AWS_REGION to the REQUIRED_ENV list! - Got rid of all kinds of hackiness surrounding postgres password evals between both the postgres library and the rds library --- Bug Fixes ---------------------------- - scwrypts --update now pulls tags for proper versioning
ZSH Scwrypts
Since they emulate direct user interaction, shell scripts are often the straightforward choice for task automation.
Basic Utilities
One of my biggest pet-peeves with scripting is when every line of a (insert-language-here) program is escaped to shell. This kind of program, which doesn't use language features, should be a shell script. While there are definitely unavoidable limitations to shell scripting, we can minimize a variety of problems with a modern shell and shared utilities library.

library provides:
- common function wrappers to unify flags and context
- lazy dependency and environment variable validation
- consistent (and pretty) user input / output
