wsl-dirutils

The tool that wraps directory/path-related commands in wslpath.

Example Config

After installing wsl-dirutils, append the below code to your .zshrc.

function cd() {
  builtin cd "$(wsl-dirutils convert "$*")"
}
function pwd() {
  wsl-dirutils pwd > /dev/null
}

How to use?

wsl-dirutils convert <path> outputs the path for Linux to stdout.
Stderr is used to output messages for the user.

$ wsl-dirutils convert "C:\Users\aspulse"

stdout:
/mnt/c/Users/aspulse

stderr:
⊘ wsl-dirutils Converting... C:\users\aspulse
 ⮑ /mnt/c/users/aspulse

wsl-dirutils pwd <path> outputs the path of the current directory to stdout.
If the current directory is under Windows such as /mnt/c/..., the wsl-dirutils outputs both styles to stderr.

$ wsl-dirutils pwd

stdout:
/mnt/c/Users/aspulse

stderr:
⊘ wsl-dirutils
 ⮑  /mnt/c/Users/aspulse (linux)
 ⮑  C:\Users\aspulse (win)

Thanks to wsl-path-rust!

We express our gratitude to wsl-path-rust, the crate that calls wslpath.exe from Rust!
It made it really easy to implement...!
