Google ZX – A tool for writing better scripts
I’m partial to Sindre Sorhus’ execa, this document outlines the differences:

The Bun Shell
Yeah, or over https://github.com/sindresorhus/execa?
And given the existence of those npm packages, is there any aspect of Bun Shell that required it to be built into the Bun runtime instead of published to npm?
For something which works across all JS runtimes (Deno, Node) and achieves basically the same, check out the popular JS library Execa[1]. Works like a charm!

How to run DB migrations in CICD Pipeline
Hello, this is an interesting problem. At https://stacktape.com (where we're creating a developer-friendly abstraction of AWS), we're recommending 2 options: - use a "deployment script" (basically a custom-resource lambda function that runs during the CloudFormation deployment). You can install prisma into it, and then execute the migration command from the lambda function using something like execa, if you're using Javascript/Typescript. You can easily do this with Stacktape anytime. - use a bastion (EC2) instance (deployed to the the VPC where your RDS db is). The cheapest instances cost ~4.5$/month, so it shoudln't be too costly. You can also securely connect to it using EC2 instance connect, that leverages IAM to grant permissions to connect to it. (this is something we're currently implementing as Stacktape, and will be ready in ~2 weeks).

Testing in ReScript
For FE, it’s usually Cypress or Playwright; for BE, it’s to run a server and start sending requests; for CLI, I like the tool called execa.

Getting vim ex command output without a TTY?
Essentially when I run this from my shell I get a listing of keymaps configured for vim. However, when I run it from a program without a PTY or TTY (e.g., via Rust's Command or Node's execa) I get an exit code of 0 and no output.

Bun 1.1
> Also with Deno, it become very easy to write typed cli. .ts file can be run as script very easily with permission access defined on top of the script such as:
I do this all the time. I used to use npx in my hashbang line to run TS scripts with node, but I've started using Deno more because of the permissions. Another great package for shell scripting with Deno is Dax, which is like the Deno version of Bun shell: https://github.com/dsherret/dax
> Also project such as https://cliffy.io has made writing cli way more enjoyable than node.
This looks cool. I've always used the npm package inquirer (which also works with Deno), but I'll have to compare cliffy to that and see how it stacks up.
> Hono (projects conform to modern web standard, and is runtime agnostic for JS)
Hono is awesome. It's fast, very well typed, runs on all JS runtimes, and has zero dependencies.
