Dry Run

Choose Safe Commands

Automation should separate planning from applying changes. A dry-run branch shows the command that would run without allowing real changes.

Program

Play the script to switch between dry-run and apply mode.

dry_run_release_command.sh 
#!/usr/bin/env bash

mode=
target="staging"
if [[ "$mode" == "dry-run" ]]; then
    command="printf preview:$target"
    effect="no-change"
else
    command="deploy --target $target"
    effect="changes-allowed"
fi
echo "$mode $effect $command"

#!/usr/bin/env bash

mode=
target="staging"
if [[ "$mode" == "dry-run" ]]; then
    command="printf preview:$target"
    effect="no-change"
else
    command="deploy --target $target"
    effect="changes-allowed"
fi
echo "$mode $effect $command"
dry run A dry run reports intent without applying changes.
apply mode Apply mode is the branch that would permit changes.
command plan Keeping the command as data makes the selected action inspectable.
