hsh's Introduction

hsh

Tired of typing out heroku #{thing_I_want_to_do} -a #{my_long_app_name} ? hsh solves this for you! Just start the shell with the name of the application that you would like to execute your commands against:

➜  hsh git:(master) hsh elixir-docset
elixir-docset > apps:info
=== elixir-docset
Addons:        loggly:mole
Git URL:       [email protected]:elixir-docset.git
Owner Email:   [email protected]
Region:        us
Repo Size:     1M
Slug Size:     1M
Stack:         cedar
Web URL:       http://elixir-docset.herokuapp.com/
elixir-docset > restart
Restarting dynos... done
elixir-docset >

To exit the shell type :exit

Shell specific commands are invoked by prepending a colon character, an approach inspired by the fabulous gitsh.

Installing

The hope is that this will be installable via package managers in the future. For now, the steps are:

Setup a working golang dev environment. I won't write how to do this as it's been covered extensively in other places. Here is the official Golang install page.
go get github.com/timraymond/hsh
cd $(echo $GOPATH)/src/github.com/timraymond/hsh
go get
If you're on OS X, you may have to install GNU readline through Homebrew. Simply brew install readline and take note of the post install documentation on the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS.
Change the paths under the LDFLAGS and CFLAGS vars under $GOPATH/src/github.com/shavac/readline/readline.go to match the ones that came from Homebrew
Go back to $GOPATH/src/github.com/timraymond and run go build
go install to have it be linked system-wide, and you're done!

Coming Soon

Like I said, the install steps above suck, so I'd like to make this as easy as brew install hsh or apt-get install hsh
The ability to switch the target application without exiting the shell
Run system commands without exiting the shell
