# netrun

Run scripts from the Internet in a way that is safer and more secure than
running `curl <url> | bash`

## Work in Progress

`netrun` is still experimental; don't rely on its working properly. In
particular, HTTP response codes are ignored (see #1).

## Try it

    git clone https://git.kj7rrv.com/kj7rrv/netrun
    cd netrun
    python3 -m pip install requests # Or install requests with your distro's
                                    # package manager; just don't use pip as
                                    # root or with sudo
    python3 netrun.py https://git.kj7rrv.com/kj7rrv/netrun/raw/branch/master/demos/shell.sh
    python3 netrun.py --interpreter=python3 https://git.kj7rrv.com/kj7rrv/netrun/raw/branch/master/demos/python.py
    python3 netrun.py --help

## Installation

### Single user

    # requests must be installed either with pip (run as the same user that is
    # installing and will use netrun), or with your distro's package manager;
    # do not run pip as root or with sudo
    cp netrun.py ~/.local/bin/netrun
    chmod +x ~/.local/bin/netrun
    netrun https://git.kj7rrv.com/kj7rrv/netrun/raw/branch/master/demos/shell.sh

### System-wide

    # Install requests using your distro's package manager first; using pip as
    # a regular user only installs it for that user, and using it as root/with
    # sudo is not recommended
    sudo cp netrun.py /usr/bin/netrun
    sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/netrun 
    sudo netrun https://git.kj7rrv.com/kj7rrv/netrun/raw/branch/master/demos/shell.sh
