# @ship.zone/szci

A lightweight CI/CD orchestrator built with Deno that unifies Node.js, Docker, NPM, SSH, and Git workflows into a single CLI. Compiles to standalone binaries — no runtime required.

## 🏗️ Architecture

szci is a **thin orchestrator** — it doesn't reinvent the wheel. Instead, it wires up best-in-class tools and handles the CI-specific glue:

| Domain | What szci does | Delegates to |
|--------|---------------|-------------|
| 🐳 Docker | Bridges `SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER*` env vars, auto-detects GitLab CI tokens | [`@git.zone/tsdocker`](https://code.foss.global/git.zone/tsdocker) |
| 📦 NPM | Generates `.npmrc` from `SZCI_TOKEN_NPM*` env vars, handles multi-registry publish | `pnpm` + `npm publish` |
| 🟢 Node.js | Manages Node versions via NVM with named aliases | `nvm` |
| 🔑 SSH | Deploys SSH keys from env vars to `~/.ssh` | `@push.rocks/smartssh` |
| 🔀 Git | Mirrors repos to GitHub | `git remote` |

```

## 📥 Installation

### Via NPM (downloads pre-compiled binary)

```sh
npm install -g @ship.zone/szci
```

### From Source

```sh
git clone https://code.foss.global/ship.zone/szci.git
cd szci
deno task compile
```

The compiled binaries land in `dist/binaries/` for Linux (x64/arm64), macOS (x64/arm64), and Windows (x64).

## 🚀 Quick Start

```sh
# Setup Node.js environment
szci node install stable

# Install project dependencies
szci npm install

# Build & push Docker images
szci docker build
szci docker push registry.example.com

# Run tests
szci npm test
```

## 📖 CLI Reference

### `szci docker` — Docker Operations

All Docker commands delegate to `@git.zone/tsdocker` after bridging environment variables.

```sh
szci docker build                        # Build all Dockerfiles in cwd
szci docker login                        # Login to all configured registries
szci docker prepare                      # Alias for login
szci docker push registry.example.com    # Push images to a registry
szci docker pull registry.example.com    # Pull images from a registry
szci docker test                         # Test Dockerfiles
```

**Env var bridging:** Before delegating, szci converts its own env var format to tsdocker's expected format:

```
SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER_1  →  DOCKER_REGISTRY_1
SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER_2  →  DOCKER_REGISTRY_2
...
```

In GitLab CI, `CI_JOB_TOKEN` is automatically bridged as `DOCKER_REGISTRY_0` for `registry.gitlab.com`.

### `szci npm` — NPM/pnpm Workflows

```sh
szci npm install     # Runs pnpm install
szci npm build       # Runs pnpm run build
szci npm test        # Runs pnpm test
szci npm prepare     # Generates ~/.npmrc from SZCI_TOKEN_NPM* env vars
szci npm publish     # Full workflow: prepare → install → build → clean → npm publish
```

The `publish` command supports multi-registry publishing. If `npmAccessLevel` is `public` and a Verdaccio registry is configured, it publishes to both npm and Verdaccio automatically.

### `szci node` — Node.js Version Management

```sh
szci node install stable    # Node.js 22
szci node install lts       # Node.js 20
szci node install legacy    # Node.js 18
szci node install 21        # Any specific version
```

Uses NVM under the hood (auto-detected at `/usr/local/nvm/nvm.sh` or `~/.nvm/nvm.sh`). After installing, it:
1. Sets the installed version as `nvm alias default`
2. Upgrades npm to latest
3. Installs any global tools listed in `npmextra.json` → `npmGlobalTools`

### `szci ssh` — SSH Key Deployment

```sh
szci ssh prepare    # Deploy SSH keys from env vars to ~/.ssh
```

Reads all `SZCI_SSHKEY_*` env vars and writes the keys to disk.

### `szci git` — Git Mirroring

```sh
szci git mirror    # Mirror repository to GitHub
```

Pushes all branches and tags to a GitHub mirror. Requires `SZCI_GIT_GITHUBTOKEN`. Refuses to mirror packages marked as `private` in `package.json`.

## ⚙️ Configuration

### `npmextra.json`

Place this in your project root to configure szci behavior:

```json
{
  "@ship.zone/szci": {
    "npmGlobalTools": ["typescript", "pnpm"],
    "npmAccessLevel": "public",
    "npmRegistryUrl": "registry.npmjs.org",
    "urlCloudly": "https://cloudly.example.com"
  }
}
```

| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| `npmGlobalTools` | `string[]` | `[]` | Global npm packages to install during `node install` |
| `npmAccessLevel` | `"public" \| "private"` | `"private"` | Access level for `npm publish` |
| `npmRegistryUrl` | `string` | `"registry.npmjs.org"` | Default npm registry |
| `urlCloudly` | `string?` | — | Cloudly endpoint URL (can also be set via `SZCI_URL_CLOUDLY`) |

## 🔐 Environment Variables

### Docker Registry Authentication

Pipe-delimited format: `registry|username|password`

```sh
SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER_1="registry.example.com|myuser|mypass"
SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER_2="ghcr.io|token|ghp_xxxx"
```

In **GitLab CI**, the `CI_JOB_TOKEN` is automatically used for `registry.gitlab.com` — no manual config needed.

### NPM Registry Authentication

Pipe-delimited format: `registry|token[|plain]`

```sh
# Base64-encoded token (default)
SZCI_TOKEN_NPM_1="registry.npmjs.org|dGhlLXRva2VuLWhlcmU="

# Plain text token
SZCI_TOKEN_NPM_2="verdaccio.example.com|the-token-here|plain"
```

### SSH Keys

Pipe-delimited format: `host|privKeyBase64|pubKeyBase64`

```sh
SZCI_SSHKEY_1="github.com|BASE64_PRIVATE_KEY|BASE64_PUBLIC_KEY"
SZCI_SSHKEY_2="gitlab.com|BASE64_PRIVATE_KEY|##"   # Use ## to skip a field
```

### Git Mirroring

```sh
SZCI_GIT_GITHUBTOKEN="ghp_your_personal_access_token"
SZCI_GIT_GITHUBGROUP="your-org"       # Defaults to repo owner
SZCI_GIT_GITHUB="your-repo"           # Defaults to repo name
```

### Debugging & Testing

```sh
DEBUG_SZCI="true"      # Log all shell commands before execution
SZCI_TEST="true"       # Test mode: mocks bash execution, skips SSH disk writes
```

## 🔄 Migration from npmci

Upgrading from `@ship.zone/npmci`? Three steps:

1. **Rename the binary** — replace `npmci` with `szci` in all CI scripts
2. **Rename env vars** — `NPMCI_*` → `SZCI_*` (same formats, just the prefix changed)
3. **Docker ops** — now delegate to `@git.zone/tsdocker` (installed automatically via `npx`)

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `NPMCI_LOGIN_DOCKER*` | `SZCI_LOGIN_DOCKER*` |
| `NPMCI_TOKEN_NPM*` | `SZCI_TOKEN_NPM*` |
| `NPMCI_SSHKEY_*` | `SZCI_SSHKEY_*` |
| `NPMCI_GIT_GITHUBTOKEN` | `SZCI_GIT_GITHUBTOKEN` |
| `NPMCI_URL_CLOUDLY` | `SZCI_URL_CLOUDLY` |
| `DEBUG_NPMCI` | `DEBUG_SZCI` |
| `NPMTS_TEST` | `SZCI_TEST` |
