pet : CLI Snippet Manager

Simple command-line snippet manager, written in Go

You can use variables (<param> or <param=default_value> ) in snippets.

Abstract

pet is written in Go, and therefore you can just grab the binary releases and drop it in your $PATH.

pet is a simple command-line snippet 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 snippets with description and search them easily.

Main features

pet has the following features.

• Register your command snippets easily.
• Use variables in snippets.
• Search snippets interactively.
• Run snippets directly.
• Edit snippets easily (config is just a TOML file).
• Sync snippets via Gist.

Examples

Some examples are shown below.

Register the previous command easily

By adding the following config to .zshrc, you can easily register the previous command.

$ cat .zshrc
function prev() {
  PREV=$(fc -lrn | head -n 1)
  sh -c "pet new `printf %q "$PREV"`"
}

Select snippets at the current line (like C-r)

By adding the following config to .zshrc, you can search snippets and output on the shell.

$ cat .zshrc
function pet-select() {
  BUFFER=$(pet search --query "$LBUFFER")
  CURSOR=$#BUFFER
  zle redisplay
}
zle -N pet-select
bindkey '^s' pet-select

Copy snippets to clipboard

By using pbcopy on OS X, you can copy snippets to clipboard.

Features

Edit snippets

The snippets are managed in the TOML file, so it's easy to edit.

Sync snippets

You can share snippets via Gist.

------------------------------

Configuration

Run pet configure

[General]
  snippetfile = "path/to/snippet" # specify snippet directory
  editor = "vim"                  # your favorite text editor
  column = 40                     # column size for list command
  selectcmd = "peco"              # selector command for edit command

[Gist]
  file_name = "pet-snippet.toml"  # specify gist file name
  access_token = ""               # your access token
  gist_id = ""                    # Gist ID

Sync

You must obtain access token. Go https://github.com/settings/tokens/new and create access token (only need "gist" scope). Set that to access_token in [Gist].

After setting, you can upload snippets to Gist.

$ pet sync -u
Gist ID: 1cedddf4e06d1170bf0c5612fb31a758
Upload success

Set Gist ID to gist_id in [Gist].

You can download snippets on another PC.

$ pet sync
Download success

Installation

If peco is not installed, please install first (homebrew install peco automatically).
