Description
Would it be possible to add a feature to run scripts before and after certain events
I think this would have to be configure in a config file using $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
Some of the hooks could be
- pre-upgrade
- post-upgrade
- pre-install
- post-install
- pre-uninstall
- post-uninstall
- pre-switch
- post-switch
these could trigger the execution of scripts (python, ruby, pearl, apples script, swift using hash bang, apps (apps or helpers) or shortcuts .
These could provide many solutions to solve problems some examples
- clean ups
- back ups
- change paths or variables
- create/remove links
- update/install/uninstall other dev apps
- download code, libraries, apps and plugins
- Use third party notifications and chat systems
- extra logging
- communicate with web services
- x-callback other apps
- Apple Shortcuts
- ci/cd
They could optionally pass some basic arguments such as type, short name , bundle id, version, log name, path , url , etc

Research direction

The work would be done when a defined hook configuration and lifecycle behavior are implemented, documented, and tested.
