ignorers

Generate gitignores from the command line 🛠️

Free software: Apache Software License 2.0

Project Description

Extremely simple (but very useful) CLI that generates .gitignore files from the command line (sort of 😉). It's a sister project to goignore, replicated here in rust 🦀.

Why?

goignore was the first real program I wrote while learning Go, so I thought why not do it in Rust too? Like goignore it's mostly a thin wrapper around the gitignore API. The list of things you can pass are documented on gitignore.io.

Installation

There are pre-compiled binaries available in the GitHub releases, or there is a homebrew tap available:

brew install FollowTheProcess/homebrew-tap/ignorers

Quickstart

The binary itself is called ig (for ignorers), so you can run it like so:

ig macos python visualstudiocode
