you could do something simple like: bb -e '(load-string (slurp ""))' note that it doesnt do redirects

for a better solution and experience id recommend https://github.com/babashka/bbin

A gist would only work with a single script. When you want to support multiple files, a github repo (not gist) + some config in your bb.edn will work well with #babashka-bbin

More info about that here: https://github.com/babashka/bbin#bbin-install-script

bbin will mostly do what I want. 👍 Just saw that " bbin exec" idea was closed. https://github.com/babashka/bbin/issues/8 Any reason for this ? I see as well that "install a script" is not always needed. Some script I just want to run ones, without polluting the machine by installing it.

I don't know why it was closed. Feel free to bring this up in #C0400TZENE7 - @U0CLCL6T0 is the most active maintainer of the bbin project

Alternatively you could just git clone the project, cd into it and then run bb whatever - and maybe write a small script that does this for you

Oh wait, I also know another one, you can do:

bb -Sdeps '{:deps {...}}' -x foo.bar/baz 

Note that your bb project must have a deps.edn in this case if it's going to be used as a library

You use a multi-file gist as a git dep, at least for clj, so I'd expect a similar technique would work with bb? Example: https://gist.github.com/seancorfield/6e8dd10799e9cc7527da5510c739e52f

Ah nice and then you can use that along with -m or -x

I think the bb -Sdeps approach is the right solution here. For my thoughts on bbin exec see here: https://clojurians.slack.com/archives/C0400TZENE7/p1673998073075109?thread_ts=1673819382.702189&cid=C0400TZENE7
