Further simplify and document the install/setup process

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Write a NimScript to:

  1. Create the bin directory, which can optionally be specified using a flag. Display this at the end of the script's execution.
  2. Compile the cmd program and copy it to the bin directory.

The installation documentation should be updated to reflect these changes.

The install & setup docs have been improved.

Next, simplify the setup with a single NimScript that prompts the user for settings and performs the setup.

TODO: Make running scripts/dist optional. It would be one less step to simply set NEXUS_BIN_PATH to the nexus/src/nexus/cmd/bin directory.

  1. Move the scripts to the cmd/bin directory.
  2. Change scripts/dist to look in cmd/bin for scripts to copy.
  3. Update the setup docs.
