These are my scripts I made to make my (and maybe your) life easier!
- syncGit
- update dnf
- update homebrew
- promodoro timer
- daynote
- daynote-obsidian
- braindump
- moveto-trash
- todo
With this script, I can easily commit and push the repos I want to push on a regular basis. I use github to view my obsidian notes on my phone since I don't need to edit them when I'm on the go. I pulls first so it will sync the changes you make on another device.
The commit message will always be "sync YYY-mm-ddd" so it is not that handy if you really want to now what was synced. I don't know if I would use it for larger projects because of this.
The path to the repos should be added and is the only one that should be changed. It uses a loop that checks how many paths there are. I placed some example paths:
# Repositories to sync
repos=(
# Path to repos you want to automatically commit and push
"/Path/to/repo-1"
"/Path/to/repo-2"
"/Path/to/repo-3"
)- Add pull command
A script to update dnf. Uses dnf check-update, dnf upgrade -y, dnf upgrade -y & dnf clean all. To my knowledge is that all I need to update.
Change the commands for your packagemanager.
I added colors for eyecandy. No loading animation on this one because it didn't really work with how dnf shows downloading.
A script to update homebrew. This uses the brew update, brew upgrade, brew cleanup and brew doctor commands.
Can easily be changed to work with other package managers. Just change the commands to the ones yours uses.
I added colors and a loading animation for some eye candy :)
A very simple promodoro timer where you can set focus and break time. On MacOS you get a notification when timer is finished. I have not tested if this gives an error on linux.
Don't know how to do this on linux but you can remove the osascript lines. It will still work the same, just without the notifications.
A simple script for people who like to take daynotes. It opens it in vs-code but you could easily change this to vim, nvim,... You should change the notes location to yours before using! I might make another one to work the same as the braindump.
An upgraded script from the very simple Daynotes script. This one makes use of the obsidian daily notes function.
- Obsidian
- Daily note enabled
- URI needs to work
Usage: $ALIAS_NAME [OPTION]
Open today's daynote in Obsidian.
-p print today's daynote"
-p +1 print tomorrow's daynote"
-p -1 print yesterday's daynote"
+1 open tomorrow's daynote in Obsidian"
-1 open yesterday's daynote in Obsidian"
-h display this help and exit"
You can change the variables at the start of the script!
VAULT should be the name of your obsidian vault.
DAYNOTE_DIR is the path to the folder where your daynotes are stored (should be inside your vault)
ALIAS_NAME is the alias you chose to set to run this script. I chose dnote because I can write it quickly. Change this if you set a different alias. This is only for esthetic purposes!
A script that allows you to make quick braindumps from the terminal. Change the notes path before using! You can make this for every type of note by changing braindump to the type of name you want.
Unlike the Daynote script, this one does everything inside the same terminal window. With the downside of not being able to go back to the previous line after pressing enter.
But for me that kinda is the point. I made it to quickly get stuff from my mind before I forget, so I can process it later in a better texteditor.
It saves in Markdown so you can use all the markdown synthax. It won't show in terminal but it will in your editor!
Moves the file that's been given as argument to the trash folder. Default .Trash. Change this to what you want. You should create an alias run the script!
I use it mainly with ranger so I mapped it to 'dd' with map dd shell -w bash ~/.config/ranger/commands/movetotrash.sh %f.
./moveto-trash.sh <file>
- Add option to view trash
- Add option to empty trash
- Add option to undo trash item
A script that allows you to create lists of todo-lists. The todo-lists should be stored in your notes directory. I would recommend by adding an alias to run this script! E.g. I use 'todo' so I can run it like 'todo list' like you see in the usage below.
todo <command> [<args>]
Commands:
list List all todo lists
<name> View the specified todo list
edit <name> Edit the specified todo list in $EDITOR
create <name> Create a new todo list
trash <name> Move the specified todo list to trash
- You do need to edit the list after you finish a task. There is no way of using commands yet.
- Add a way to check tasks with command
You can easily change the variables at the start of the scripts.
Each new note is created with a template. You can change this. Template for todo list between cat <<EOL > "$todo_file" and EOL
