[ANN] New beer.db Build System - Welcome ./Datafile e.g. $beerdb new at

[Gerald Bauer]

Hello,

FYI: I've uploaded a new beerdb command line tool version, that is,
v0.10.1 What's news?

The beerdb command line tool now includes a new build system (as a
new and easier all-in-one option).

To try it - use the new Datafile - a mini language a.k.a.
domain-specific language (DSL) that lets you setup new beer.db's in
minutes.

For example, to setup a beer.db for Austria use:

Datafile:

world 'openmundi/world.db', setup: 'countries'
world 'openmundi/austria.db'

beer 'openbeer/at-austria'


That's it. Now run

$ beerdb build

The new build command will look for the ./Datafile script in your
working folder and

Step 1) Download all datasets as zip archives (from GitHub) to ./tmp
Step 2) Create all database tables
Step 3) Read/import all datasets from the zip archives in ./tmp (no
need to unpack)

That's it. Still early and rough. If you try the new Datafile
build let us know how it goes.

Cheers.

PS: The repo also includes new quick starter Datafile templates. Use like

$ beerdb new <name> e.g.
$ beerdb new at

See the new quick start Datafile repo [1] for details.
