Utility to easily open and operator on source code via url links from your browser

StarFix : Simplifying The Devflow

Intro

Would it not be nice if..

You could open your IDE on any file from any app?

OR

Open a repository/file from a browser in your editor of choice?

OR

Start a debugger locally from your web browser?

StarFix is a cross-platform client-side application that would let you open a file in Editor of your choice (vscode, eclipse, intellij, emacs, vi, etc.) and other commands locally directly from the browser or file system. This will enable an option to “Open in IDE” through browser extension on various websites like Github, Gitlab, etc similar to the one you see in this demo below.

Features

StarFix comprises of amazing features :

CLI Tool

StarFix can be used as a CLI tool as well where the repo is cloned and then the preferred Editor is launched. It also supports modifying the configurations.

Configurable

StarFix has two configurable properties: - Cloning Path: The local directory where the repository gets cloned. - Preferred Editor: The Editor to launch after the repository gets cloned. These can be configured easily through the CLI.

Custom Protocol Handler

StarFix includes a custom URL Handler to handle ide:// on the user’s machine. Whenever a URI with scheme ide:// is encountered StarFix app is launched with the arguement as the URI.

Browser Extension

To be able to add an "Open In IDE" button on Web Pages and launching the protocol handler we need a browser extension. The extension also acts as the integration between web and desktop.

Supported Platforms:

• Linux

• Windows

• Mac OS X

Installation

LINUX

• Download the starfix-linux.zip file from the Latest Release.

• Extract and Navigate to installer directory

• On the terminal execute the following(ensure the current directory is installer )

./install

• Once you execute the above command you’ll be prompted for the password (for sudo ).

• Test your installation by going to terminal and typing starfix.

• To set-up the Browser Extension, navigate to this section: Broswer Extension

WINDOWS

• Download the starfix-win64.zip file from the Latest Release

• Extract and Navigate to installer directory

• Now execute the file install.cmd (You can simply double click)

• As the app is unrecognized, Windows may launch up a new Dialog titled as Windows protected your PC with description Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognised app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.

• You may click on More info and the choose Run anyway

• You will then be prompted with a series of dialog boxes asking permission for the operations(modifying the registry). Please Select Yes in all those prompts to allow the installation.

• Test your installation by typing starfix on the Terminal(Command Prompt or Windows PowerShell)

• To set-up the Browser Extension, navigate to this section: Broswer Extension

MACOS

• Download the starfix-macos.zip file from the Latest Release

• Extract and Navigate to installer directory

• On the terminal execute the following(ensure the current directory is installer )

./install

• Once you execute the above command you’ll be prompted for the password (for sudo )

• Test your installation by going to terminal and typing starfix

• To set-up the Browser Extension, navigate to this section: Broswer Extension

BROWSER EXTENSION

• Clone This Repository.

• Now Load Unpacked Extension in the browser-extension directory.The method for Loading Unpacked extension generally varies across browsers. We’ll guide you with loading up on Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.

Loading unpacked on Google Chrome

• Open the Extension Management page by navigating to chrome://extensions.

• The Extension Management page can also be opened by clicking on the Chrome menu, hovering over More Tools then selecting the Extensions.

• Enable Developer Mode by clicking the toggle switch next to Developer mode.

• Click the LOAD UNPACKED button and select the extension directory(browser-extension). Ta-da! The extension has been successfully installed

Loading unpacked on Mozilla Firefox

• Open the about:debugging page

• Click "This Firefox" (in newer versions of Firefox)

• Click "Load Temporary Add-on"

• Select any file(like manifest.json) in the extension’s directory(browser-extension).

P.S: Browser Extensions will soon be published on Browser’s App Store to simplify installation.

Usage

As a CLI Tool

• Launch the terminal and type starfix https://github.com/user_name/repo_name.git (You can also use ssh)

• The repository will be cloned in the preferred directory and launched in the preferred Editor. See the Demo below:

Fully Integrated

• Navigate to the repository (on github.com/user/repo)

• Click on the "Open in IDE" button on the repository page.

• The repository is cloned in the preferred directory.

• The cloned repository is opened in the preferred IDE.

Configuration Editor

• The first time you launch up StarFix you’ll be prompted to choose the preferred Editor and cloning directory.

• To change the configurations you can launch up terminal and type starfix config

• You’ll then be prompted to choose the preferred Editor and cloning path as shown in Demo below.

Contributing to StarFix

Creating Issues

Start by looking at the existing issues at starfix/issues to ensure that the issue you intend to create doesn’t exist already.

• Bugs: Run the StarFix application and if you find unexpected behavior then open a new issue with the label bug and include a proper description/comment.

• Feature request: Brainstorm ideas and bring them to surface on the features that can be implemented in starfix and then create an issue with the label as enahancement. Always include as much exhaustive description as possible to help understand better.

Pull Request

After you’ve created a branch on your fork with your changes, it’s time to make a pull request

Once you’ve submitted a pull request, the collaborators can review your proposed changes and decide whether or not to incorporate (pull in) your changes.

Pull Request Pro Tips

• Fork the repository and clone it locally. Connect your local repository to the original upstream repository by adding it as a remote. Pull in changes from upstream often so that you stay up to date and so when you submit your pull request, merge conflicts will be less likely. See more detailed instructions here.

• Create a branch for your edits.

• Contribute in the style of the project as outlined above. This makes it easier for the collaborators to merge and for others to understand and maintain in the future.

• Please make sure you squash all commits together before opening a pull request. If your pull request requires changes upon review, please be sure to squash all additional commits as well. This page outlines the squash process.

Open Pull Requests

Once you’ve opened a pull request, a discussion will start around your proposed changes.

Other contributors and users may chime in, but ultimately the decision is made by the collaborators.

During the discussion, you may be asked to make some changes to your pull request.

If so, add more commits to your branch and push them – they will automatically go into the existing pull request!

Opening a pull request will trigger a Github Actions build to check the validity of proposed changes. After the build completes, please ensure that the build has succeeded. If the build did not succeed, please view the Github Actions log and correct any errors that were found in your contribution.

Technology for Development

• Quarkus : The Starfix CLI is built as a native executable with Quarkus.Specifically,we are using the command mode of Quarkus.

• JUNIT5: As Quarkus supports JUNIT5, it has been used for Unit Testing.

• Maven Assembly : As we needed to combine project output(native exectable) into a single distributable archive that along with installer scripts we are using Maven Assembly.

• Github Actions : Github actions makes our CI/CD very easy.We are using it build,test and generate artifacts and distributable packages.Currently we are using it on Pull Request(Builds and generates artifacts), Push(Builds and generates artifacts) and Releases(generates distributable packages as zip file).We have also set-up a release mechanism on pushing with tags v* .

Quick Command reference:

• Starting in Development mode : mvn quarkus:dev

• Passing arguments: When you run with mvn quarkus:dev you can add -Dquarkus.args=yourvalue as arguments you want to pass into the command line. Example mvn quarkus:dev -Dquarkus.args="https://github.com/user/repo.git"

• Building native executable : mvnw package -Dnative

FAQS

1. Why do we call it StarFix ?

   The following image is good enough to explain …​

2. Why are we using Quarkus?

   The reason for going with this is that anything other than this(like node or python bound) would require additional setup. On the other hand Java or Native is something that can be shipped fairly lightweight. Furthermore we need a cross-platform application(Linux, Windows, and MacOS). Thus Quarkus would be the best choice.

starfix's Issues

Add support for other Editors/IDE

• User should be having an option to provide custom launch command for other editor/ide.

setup osx signing

see https://localazy.com/blog/how-to-automatically-sign-macos-apps-using-github-actions for details

The browser extension doesn't do anything if the default configuration have not been set.

Description

Without initially setting the two Starfix configurable properties:- cloning path and preferred editor, using the starfix config command, the browser extension doesn't actually do anything.

Implementation ideas

Starfix should be first configured. i.e. If you click on the link Open in IDE in the browser, it should open a window to configure your IDE and preferred editor first before going ahead.

setup github release mechanics

setup workflow that on git tag v* (i.e. git tag v0.0.1) builds and create a draft release.

see https://github.com/jbangdev/jbang/blob/master/.github/workflows/tag-and-release.yml as an example

move to use jbang style quarkus cli app

with jbang v0.47 we can now write apps with multiple source files and resources.

starfix is at t he right level of small app that could benefit from this + would give jbang a nice usecase to see what works what does not.

will try collect what we use from maven that we absolutely need and which we can throw away.

starfix logs too much and gives no info on help etc.

output of runner is:

./target/starfix-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-runner

2020-08-15 22:48:51,912 INFO  [io.quarkus] (main) starfix stopped in 0.000s

it should just be like a cli - thus need to turn of the logging and instead of No input provided!! give a standard cli help output, something similar to:

Usage: starfix ...
Opens your file and project in any ide/editor.
  -h, --help       Display help/info
Commands: 
  ...
  ...

can use picocli to make this happen automatically.

Versioning and Changelogs

Setup mechanism for tracking the changelogs(feature updates, bug fixes ) for each release and maintaining it with version history. Would be good if the latest changelog is included in the readme file under a heading like [What's New @v2.1.1]

use /usr/local/bin on linux as its not installed by the package manager

rename from starfish to starfix

should update readme/code etc. to use starfix.

things like:

starfish becomes starfix

dk.xam -> dev.starfix

expand ide:// protocol to do more than just clone

right now we just have ide://<url to clone>, but would be interesting to have stuff like ide://clone?repo=<url> and ide://open?path=<url-to-file> where open would clone if needed and open the file - if repo already cloned just open the file.

Similar could add things like ide://open?path=<url-to-file>&line=27 to open file and go to line 27.

support if handed a zip to unzip and open on result

browser extension

• A browser extension to embed the "Open in Editor" button on Web Page(Github).
• should then stimulate the ide-handler which in turn should lead to the starfish app.
• should be able to register protocol in the browser using navigator.registerProtocolHandler
• support all modern web browsers(at least chrome and firefox )
• this will play a very important role in integration web browser responses to desktop apps using prortocol handler as a glue

ide protocol handler

• A Protocol handler is needed the handles URI of form ide://..
• The handler should fire up the starfish application with the passed argument.
• Should Work on all three platforms(windows, macos, and linux)
• Example:
  ide://https://github.com/user-name/repo.git
  on launching this URI, starfish should launch and it should receive the arguments.

Try to setup Release Mechanism for Browser Extension

• Try to Setup Release mechanism for Browser Extension when we update the source .
• Use github actions to automatically push the new extension to Chrome Webstore and Mozilla Firefox Add on Store .

does not accept `~/code` as a preferred clone path

shouldn't starfix be okey user enters ~/code (i..e using tilde for user home?) as preferred clone path

Provide default config for Mac OS

At the moment default config is only setup for Windows and Linux. It will be nice to also have it setup for Mac.

You can start looking from this file.

starfix/cli/src/main/java/dev/starfix/Starfix.java

Line 161 in 950b519

void defaultConfig() {

and also you can check these merged PRs to look at the implementations for guidance.
#102 and #99

Browser extension distribution

Publish Extension on Popular Web stores (Mozilla , Chrome Web Store) so that users can easy download them .

Patch for Windows Installer

• Move installer->starfix.cmd to installer->Starfix->starfix.cmd
• I have already resolved this but would create a separate PR after the PR for renaming is merged(merge confic may occur otherwise )

starfix not accepting default github urls like https://github.com/jbangdev/jbang

starfix https://github.com/jbangdev/jbang should work just like git clone https://github.com/jbangdev/jbang works with such url.

ide handler for mac

About Section

• The About Section of Repository needs to be updated and should probably have a quick summary of Starfix.
• I don't have privileges to modify the About section so @maxandersen you'll have to do it your self or grant me the privileges .

Setup release mechanism to Homebrew/Sdkman after a stable release

• After starfix is working fine and we've made a stable release, we can make it avialable via HomeBrew/Sdkman.
  Quoting a conversation with @maxandersen for future references :

> once that is in place use of jreleaser which makes such publishing easily can be explored.
> one challenge is ensuring the url protocol handler gets configured so sdkman might not be able to do that. would need exploration.

support emacsclient

emacsclient uses "emacsclient +4 info.txt" to open info.txt on line 4.

mvn package fails assuming it is run with -Dnative

mvn package fails - it shouldn't as -Dnative not stated.

idea: open stacktrace links

Imagine the following:

you run an app or build in your terminal, ie. mvn package and an error occurs and a stacktrace is shown.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/atlassian/fugue/Effect
        at com.atlassian.httpclient.apache.httpcomponents.DefaultHttpClientFactory.doCreate(DefaultHttpClientFactory.java:68)
        at com.atlassian.httpclient.apache.httpcomponents.DefaultHttpClientFactory.create(DefaultHttpClientFactory.java:35)
        at com.atlassian.jira.rest.client.internal.async.AsynchronousHttpClientFactory.createClient(AsynchronousHttpClientFactory.java:63)

now in iterm2 you can actually setup regular expression to turn these stacktraces into hyperlinks.

would be interesting if we could support something like:

ide://open-stack-trace?stackline="com.atlassian.httpclient.apache.httpcomponents.DefaultHttpClientFactory.doCreate(DefaultHttpClientFactory.java:68)"

which would tell the IDE to search for DefaultHttpClientFactory.java and open it on line 68.

Not all editors would support this but at least eclipse, netbeans and vscode should technically be capable of doing it.

Display Picocli help on Empty argument.

Empty arguement doesn't trigger picocli help.

Custom Launch Command for IDE

• Shouldn't starfix support a custom IDE launch command .
• Currently, while configuring preferred IDE/Editor we display to user a limited set of IDE and ask to chose from them . What if user wants to use some other Ide/editor .
• We can try to accept custom input from user (Eg user can entercode if he wants to use VSCode) in addition to the existing Ide . Offcourse, then we need to think about the launch command format in that case . For that we can use use a common launch format (ide_name path/to/directory) which is used by most of the Ide/Editor. If there's even more robust solution to this then we could use that too .

• The simplest solution is to create .config directory if not exist while creating config .

Support for SSH

• Currently, the Browser extension generates only an https link for the repository and thus starfish supports only https.
• To enable support for ssh the Browser extension must give an option to choose between https and ssh and thus generated the respective link accordingly.

not able to apply Defaut configuration after applying custom configuration

@fahad-israr

• I could not apply the default configuration after i configured the custom configuration using cli, command: starfix config
• i have to manually delete or change the content of ~/.config/starfix.yaml file for reset.
  is there any option to roll back to my default configuration at once? or am i missing one?

make room for browser extension

move mvn/quarkus project to /starfish-cli and have /starfish-browser folder for browser extension.

Config should allow us to change only the IDE.

• Suppose you just want to modify the preferred IDE but if you open the config it'll ask to enter the preferred cloning path as well.
• It Should allow to changes the IDE only and retain the clone path present in the config file .
• This should work either way i.e if we only want to change the preferred cloning path and not the editor .

Adding URI registry in windows from java

To create URI registry in windows we can create a starfish.reg file and run 'reg import starfish.reg' from cmd but it requires administrator rights
we can run following code from java program
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("reg import starfish.reg");
but it failed
I've tried multiple methods as

https://superuser.com/questions/694761/how-to-run-cmd-with-admin-privileges-using-command-line
but failed

update docs to include link to download starfix build.

error installing starfix in linux

Hi, I am Ajeet and I have been looking around in order to install this Starfix tool as I find it very useful to clone and open a GitHub repo in a single command.

I read the installation instruction for Linux but I can't find the starfix-linux.zip file anywhere to download. I found the install file that was mentioned in the instructions inside /starfix/cli/installer/linux/installer/ . I executed the ./install command and it shows the error:-

I also want to contribute to this project, and this will be my first open-source contribution so forgive me if there is any format mistake in creating the issues. Any guideline tips for contributing would help me a lot.

Regards,
Ajeet.

Installation failed in windows.

I followed the steps, but its not working, when i am typing starfix on command promt, its showing 'starfix' is not recognized as an internal or external command.
