robe

Wear your configs.

robe is a tiny CLI for saving and switching between named configuration files or directories.

Keep versions.
Switch instantly.
Nothing else.

Install

cargo install robe

Quickstart

Register and save:

robe add tmux/work -r .config/tmux

Create another profile:

robe add tmux/minimal

Switch:

robe use tmux/work

Inspect:

robe view tmux/work
robe edit tmux/work

What it does

• stores named config profiles
• switches between them quickly
• prints to stdout or edits with $EDITOR
• keeps everything as plain files or directories

Roadmap

What is planned before v0.1.0 (first stable release)

• robe status
  • Show the current activated profile for each tool
  • If changed, show the last activated profile for each tool
• robe status <target>
  • Show the current active profile for a given tool
  • If changed, show the last activated profile for a tool
• robe use should require -f if the current file is different than the last activated profile.
• Quality of life improvements:
  • Profiles should be stored with their respective file endings to allow better editing with robe edit <target>
  • Better readability in the dispatch module.
  • --config <file> allow setting a config file
  • better errors (especially io)
• Coverage:
  • Coverage should be over 90%
