Just a simple smartcell to run a bash script. You can run it in the background or as an auto restarting daemon.
Why? Well you see, I use Livebook for data analysis for my company. Yes, eventually I'll have to setup a proper data warehouse and start doing my business intelligence by querying that. But eventually will come. Today, I just want to rsync my sqlite database from my prod server to backup and do some analysis. This project makes things like that about 30% nicer.
You can judge me, or you can be impressed by me.
What you can't do, is deny the usefulness of kino_shell.
To bring kino_shell to Livebook all you need to do is Mix.install/2:
Mix.install([
{:kino_shell, "~> 0.1.1"}
])
