Quickly go back to a parent directory up in your current working directory tree. Don't write 'cd ../../..' redundantly, use bd instead.
This is a fish implementation of vigneshwaranr/bd by Vigneshwaran Raveendran.
# fish-bd v1.3.3 (https://github.com/0rax/bd-fish)
Description:
Quickly go back to a parent directory up in your current working directory tree.
Don't write 'cd ../../..' redundantly, use bd instead.
Usage:
bd [option] <pattern>
Examples:
# You are in /home/user/my/path/is/very/long/
# And you want to go back to 'path', simple type
> bd path
# or
> bd -s pa
# or
> bd -i Pat
# And you are now in /home/user/my/path/
Options:
-c <pattern>
Classic mode : goes back to the first directory matching the pattern (default)
Set if default using (set -gx BD_OPT 'classic')
Default mode when BD_OPT or CLI options are specified
-s <pattern>
Seems mode: goes back to the first directory starting with pattern
Set it as default using (set -gx BD_OPT 'sensitive')
-i <pattern>
Case insensitive mode: same as seems mode without case sensitity
Set it as default using (set -gx BD_OPT 'insensitive')
-h Print this help and exit
Note:
Fuzzy matching of a directory can be done with any mode using the built-in
fish-shell autocompletion. This allows you to enter any part of the path
and still match it
Using Fisher (recommended method)
# This method allows you to update bd automatically via `fisher`
fisher install 0rax/fish-bd
# This method allows you to update narwhal by just doing a 'git pull'
