Create a ZIP file from an SVN url

Instructions.md

Installing

• Download svn-zip into /usr/local/bin/. For example: curl https://raw.github.com/gist/2989864/svn-zip > /usr/local/bin/svn-zip
• Make sure that /usr/local/bin/ is in your PATH.

Usage

In your terminal, use:

svn-zip SVN_URL ZIP_FILE_NAME

The ZIP_FILE_NAME does not need a .zip ending.

svn-zip

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# -ne 2 ] ; then
  echo "Usage: "`basename "$0"` "SVN_URL ZIP_NAME" >&2
  exit 1
fi

SVN_URL=$1
DIR_NAME=$2

cd ~/Desktop/ && svn export $SVN_URL $DIR_NAME && zip -rq ${DIR_NAME}.zip $DIR_NAME && rm -rf $DIR_NAME
cd -
echo "Successfully created ${DIR_NAME}.zip from ${SVN_URL}"
