Tabby is a simple iTerm2 environment configuration tool. It allows you to create different environments for different projects, each with their own set of tabs and command sets.
Environments should be stored in ~/.tabby/, using a simple and short name. We'll walk through building my ~/.tabby/blog.rb environment.
Tabby environments are just regular Ruby classes. The filename and classname should match, with the classname following regular Ruby standards:
class Blog < Tabby::Base
end
Define your project's root directory with basedir:
class Blog < Tabby::Base
basedir "~/Dev/Blog"
end
Creating tabs is just a matter of creating methods. There should be one method per tab. The method name becomes the tab's title; replacing underscores with spaces.
class Blog < Tabby::Base
basedir "~/Dev/Blog"
def jekyll
exec "jekyll --auto --server"
end
def sass
exec "sass --watch public/css/main.sass:public/css/main.css"
end
end
Each tab will start off by cd'ing into the environment's basedir. Then it will execute it's list of commands in order.
