p

p

Bash function to jump around between projects.

Installation

Source the p.sh file in your .bashrc file.

Customization

You can customize which directory is used as the home of projects. By default it is ~/Projects but you can change it to anything you want by setting the PROJECTS_DIR environment variable.

export PROJECTS_DIR=~/code

Usage

Given a folder structure of:

• ~/Projects
• ~/Projects/module-a
• ~/Projects/module-b

p allows you to jump to any project folder by name, from anywhere on the file system.

~ $ p module-a
~/Projects/module-a $

It also supports fuzzy matching. It will select the shortest match.

~ $ p a
~/Projects/module-a $

You can put multiple phrases to search for:

~ $ p mod
~/Projects/module-a $ p mod b
~/Projects/module-b $

If you dont pass any arguments, or if p cannot find any matches, it will put you into the PROJECTS_DIR.

~ $ p
~/Projects $

~ $ p something not matching any projects
~/Projects $

It also supports tab completion:

~ $ p mod
module-a   module-b

Tips

Automatically load the projects node version through nvm.

See p-load-nvmrc.
