yeenbean / odt-builder Goto Github PK

I want to colorize the console output so that it is more legible and so that important information isn't overlooked.

The proposed new build flow would be, for lack of a better term, hell to work with. Needs a rework.

For example, could set variables to specify what args need to be passed to build function. This would negate the need to build a billion nested blocks.

$version
$bits

switch (Read-Host) {
    '1' {
        $version = "business"
    }
}

In the script's current state, it does not check for dependencies when run. Instead, it just fails during execution.

My plan is to implement something along the lines of

1. Program launches and checks for 7-zip and ODT dependencies.
2. When a dependency is missing, print output for each missing dependency with info on how to install them and links to download. Script will exit after pressing the "any" key.
3. If dependencies are met, script will drop into main menu as usual.
