How to compile
--------------
(user)$ qmake
(user)$ make
(root)# make install
Working with contexts
---------------------
The menu:
(user)$ coso
coso 0.1
Usage: coso <command> [params]
List of commands:
. switch|sw [contextName] <--verbose|-v> change context
. systray|st run as a systray app
. info|i show the configuration of the contexts
. new|n <options> create a new context or a task
. delete|d <options> delete a new context or a task
. help this help
List of contexts:
(user)$ coso info
Global Context
No Tasks
The global context contains global tasks.
Let's create contexts:
(user)$ coso new context home
(user)$ coso new context work
(user)$ coso new context blabla
(user)$ coso info
Global Context
No Tasks
Context: home
No Tasks
Context: work
No Tasks
Context: blabla
No Tasks
How to remove a context:
(user)$ coso delte context blabla
Working with Tasks
------------------
The menu:
(user)$ coso new
Usage: ... new [context|task] <option>
Usage for context:
Usage: ... new context [contextName] (use '_global` for the global context)
Usage for task:
Usage: ... new task [contextName] [taskName] [type]
List of types for tasks:
. editFile Edit a file (you must create a template)
. removeFile Remove a file
. createFile Create a file
. gconf Set values on some gconf key
Let's create a dummy task:
(user)$ coso new task home dummyTask editFile
Edit your new task: /root/.coso/home/dummyTask
(user)$ vi /root/.coso/home/dummyTask
The editFile task will read the template file (FileInput in the XML
document of the task) and it will create the output file (FileOutput).
The templating system supports these keyworks:
- __COSO_START__ <nameOfTheContext>
- __COSO_END__ <nameOfTheContext>
if the current context is called '<nameOfTheContext>', any line between
these 2 keyworks will be inserted in the output file.
For instance:
#This is a configuration file...
__COSO_START__ home
proxy: localhost:8080
__COSO_END__ home
__COSO_START__ work
proxy: company.net:8080
__COSO_END__ home
Switch the contexts
-------------------
(user)$ coso switch home
Systray
-------
I use coso in the systray. Just run coso in this way:
(user)$ coso systray
and can change contexts with one click.
