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:
plugins=(... fastfile)
Usage
Example: you access folder /code/project/backend/database very frequently.
First, generate a shortcut with the name pjdb:
$ fastfile pjdb /code/project/backend/database
Next time you want to access it, use §pjdb. For example:
$ cd §pjdb
$ subl §pjdb
where § is the fastfile prefix (see below 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.
If the second argument is not provided, the current directory is used. -
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,
or using⌥ Option+6in macOS. -
fastfile_dir: directory where the fastfile shortcuts are stored. Needs to end
with a trailing slash.
Default:$HOME/.fastfile/.
