Setting up bash scripts
I'm a developer and I also admin my websites - hobby, startup or even business oriented.
What bores me to death is doing the same thing over and over again. I think if there is a proccess that can only be done in one way in your computer - the computer should do it for you.
Programming is awesome, because you can take full control of your workstation.
So here's what my scripts do, how I use them and how they work.
How it works
My name is Krister and my scripts are called "Krister's scripts" and all I need to do to get started is bring down the console with F1
and type k
.
No stranger can understand at a glance how to use this and they don't need to, these scripts are for my eyes only. Basically the Linux activities are activated by just writing gen
or sc
, but the Meteor commands work by specifying the activity and service, ie. u gh
to update this ghost blog.
gen
and sc
open another menu, but the Meteor stuff just do the task.
What's really cool is how automated things are. For example the command c ti
tries to cd ~/code/ting && git status
- I get git status with the cd command - really cool. If the directory does not exist, it will clone the repo for me and then cd
in there.
You can find all the code on GitHub.
