# Fastfile plugin
This plugin adds a way to reference certain files or folders used frequently using
a global alias or shortcut.
To use it, add `fastfile` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
```zsh
plugins=(... fastfile)
```
## Usage
Example: you access folder `/code/project/backend/database` very frequently.
First, generate a shortcut with the name `pjdb`:
```zsh
$ fastfile pjdb /code/project/backend/database
```
Next time you want to access it, use `§pjdb`. For example:
```zsh
$ cd §pjdb
$ subl §pjdb
```
where § is the fastfile prefix (see [below](#options) for how to change).
**Note:** shortcuts with spaces in the name are assigned a global alias
where the spaces have been substituted with underscores (`_`). For example:
a shortcut named `"hello world"` corresponds with `§hello_world`.
## Functions
- `fastfile <shortcut_name> <path/to/file/or/folder>`: generate a shortcut.
- `fastfile_print <shortcut_name>`: prints a shortcut, with the format
`<prefix><shortcut_name> -> <shortcut_path>`.
- `fastfile_ls`: lists all shortcuts.
- `fastfile_rm <shortcut_name> `: remove a shortcut.
- `fastfile_sync`: generates the global aliases for the shortcuts.
### Internal functions
- `fastfile_resolv <shortcut_name>`: resolves the location of the shortcut
file, i.e., the file in the fastfile directory where the shortcut path
is stored.
- `fastfile_get <shortcut_name>`: get the real path of the shortcut.
## Aliases
| Alias | Function |
|--------|------------------|
| ff | `fastfile` |
| ffp | `fastfile_print` |
| ffrm | `fastfile_rm` |
| ffls | `fastfile_ls` |
| ffsync | `fastfile_sync` |
## Options
These are options you can set to change certain parts of the plugin. To change
them, add `<variable>=<value>` to your zshrc file, before Oh My Zsh is sourced.
For example: `fastfile_var_prefix='@'`.
- `fastfile_var_prefix`: prefix for the global aliases created. Controls the prefix of the
created global aliases.
**Default:** `§` (section sign), easy to type in a german keyboard via the combination
[`⇧ Shift`+`3`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_keyboard_layout#/media/File:KB_Germany.svg),
or using `⌥ Option`+`6` in macOS.
- `fastfile_dir`: directory where the fastfile shortcuts are stored. Needs to end
with a trailing slash.
**Default:** `$HOME/.fastfile/`.
