Tools
Trunk Tools is a hermetic runtime and CLI tool manager. Seamlessly specify, install, and upgrade the tooling in your repository with Trunk Tools.
trunk tools <command> | description |
---|---|
list | list all available tools in the repository and whether they are enabled or not |
install | install your enabled tools into .trunk/tools |
enable <tool-name>[@version] | enable the provided tool, optionally at a specified version |
disable <tool-name> | disable the provided tool |
The trunk plugins repo ships with a collection of tools that can help supercharge your repository and provide examples for how to write your own. To see a list of tools that you can enable in your own repo run:
trunk tools list

list of available and enabled tools
Trunk
installs your enabled tools into the .trunk/tools
directory. Each tool exposes as list of shims (these may or may not be identically named to the tool - most typically a tool has one shim matching the name of the tool). Each shim is installed into the .trunk/tools
directory.You can run your tools by referring to the path
<path to your workspace>/.trunk/tools/<shim name>
but this is unwieldy. We highly recommend using direnv in your repository and adding the following line to your .envrc
:PATH_add .trunk/tools
This way, whenever you're inside your repo at the command line, you can just run shims installed by
trunk tools
directly by name.Last modified 1mo ago
