# 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/`.
