GoToProject

A simple bash command to help developers navigate between projects.

Usage:

# Jump to /dev/projects/php/softdrink
gd softdrink

# But also works with
gd sdr # fuzzy match
gd php # most recent PHP project

# Or just enter
gd
# to jump to the most recently modified project

The target directory is determined by:

  • Direct or partial match of the directory name
  • Fuzzy pattern match (prj -> project)
  • Existence of .git repository
  • Date of last change

GoToProject just picks the most likely match and cd-s there. It's that simple.

TIP: Set env. variable GTP_DEBUG to 1 to see debugging output.

Installation

Paste this into your terminal and follow the on-screen instructions:

wget -O- -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/panta82/GoToProject/master/install.sh | bash

Alternatively, if you're a jaded untrusting soul, you could clone the repository, inspect the content and then run install.sh,

Requirements

  • Bash 4.3

    It might work on older versions, but it wasn't tested and installer won't support it.

  • GNU toolchain

    No worries on Linux. On Mac, please install homebrew, then execute brew install coreutils.

  • Screen compatible command

    Either screen or whiplash. Should come preinstalled on linux. brew install screen on Mac.
