plugin : CLI cli-plugin-plugin Manager
Simple command-line cli-plugin-plugin manager, written in Go
You can use variables (<param>
or <param=default_value>
) in cli-plugin-plugins.
Abstract
plugin
is written in Go, and therefore you can just grab the binary releases and drop it in your $PATH.
plugin
is a simple command-line cli-plugin-plugin manager (inspired by memo).
I always forget commands that I rarely use. Moreover, it is difficult to search them from shell history. There are many similar commands, but they are all different.
e.g.
$ awk -F, 'NR <=2 {print $0}; NR >= 5 && NR <= 10 {print $0}' company.csv
(What I am looking for)$ awk -F, '$0 !~ "DNS|Protocol" {print $0}' packet.csv
$ awk -F, '{print $0} {if((NR-1) % 5 == 0) {print "----------"}}' test.csv
In the above case, I search by awk
from shell history, but many commands hit.
Even if I register an alias, I forget the name of alias (because I rarely use that command).
So I made it possible to register cli-plugin-plugins with description and search them easily.
