4. fox CLI

The command line interface to interact with the repository is the fox CLI. fox.py, in the root of the repository, is the tool that implements the tool to interact with the repository, to e.g., build the embedded binary or run tests.

For details of the fox.py implementation see fox.py .

To simplify the usage of this Python module, three shell wrappers are provided (also at the root of the repository):

  • fox.bat for Command Prompt (cmd.exe)

  • fox.ps1 for PowerShell (pwsh.exe)

  • fox.sh for Bash (bash)

To simplify and increase the readability of the documentation, the documentation will use the PowerShell script in example code. The notation for PowerShell is .\fox.ps1.

  • If you are using cmd.exe use fox.bat instead of .\fox.ps1.

  • If you are using bash use ./fox.sh instead of .\fox.ps1.
