z_rs implements a directory jumping command line utility
The original is a 200 line shell classic https://github.com/rupa/z/blob/master/z.sh
This is an opinionated rewrite instead of being 1:1
with the original. Most notably, this does not override
cd
in any way, and needs to be used instead of cd
to
build the cache.
This provides a z_rs
binary, which can be invoked
for configuration and lookup.
§Installation
Currently unpublished, do
cargo install https://github.com/suyash/z-rs
§Configuration
add
eval "$(z_rs init --cmd z --cache $HOME/.z_rs)"
in your shell configuration file.
The --cmd
option is the name of the command that will
be added to the shell. For example, in this case, a z
command will be created.
§Usage
If configured with the command name z
, then simply do
z foo bar
will try to match foo
and bar
and if a match is found
in the cache, will cd
to it, otherwise error out.
Matches occur based on “frecency”. The rank of a path is how many times it has been accessed. The command will return the highest ranked matching record. If there are multiple, it will return the most recently accessed one.
