JOJO

Convenient command line path shuttle tool

Design Goal

Every searching will locate register file and find the alias key. Each alias key must begin with symbol @. One path may have multiple alias key. Data will be saved in a file which exist in system root path.

@npm
/Users/sulirc/.nvm/versions/node/v14.16.1/bin/npm

@desk:@des:@d
/Users/sulirc/Desktop

@rock
/Users/sulirc/spaceship/workspace/rock_proj

Command

jojo jump

jump target path by alias:

jojo-jump @desk
# or short command
j @desk

In essence: The rust program can only affect its own environment, not your shell. Therefore we need to implement command by wrapping jojo expand in bash function:

jojo_jump() {
  cd $(jojo expand "$1")
}
j() {
  jojo_jump $1
}

Refer to the bash function above. we can create more handy bash function.

# open your project with your editor quickly
jojo_code() {
  code $(jojo expand "$1")
}
# open folder quickly
jojo_open() {
  open $(jojo expand "$1")
}

jojo register @desk /Users/user/Desktop/
# or you can use relative path, command below is same as above (as long as if you are on desktop currently)

# and short command below

jojo name

Update registered alias key to new name:

jojo name @foo @bar
