Build a bash script generator

In the transformation step we have to create scripts to build and deploy the generated artifacts.

Considered Alternatives

• Build a general bash script generator
• let the plugins build bash scripts by themselves

Decision Outcome

• Chosen Alternative: Build a general bash script generator
• Comes out best (see below)

Pros and Cons of the Alternatives

Build a general bash script generator

• + provides components everyone can use
• + plugins do not implement the same thing multiple times
• + script components managed and tested in one place
• + scripts are working the same for every platforms target artifact
• - there are plugin specific components

let the plugins build bash scripts by themselves

• + plugin specific script components are "private"
• - duplicated code
• - every plugin has its own script style
