• sn

  22 27 0.0 Shell

  Simple Notes using fzf

• bash-cache

  6 68 0.0 Shell

  Transparent caching layer for bash functions; particularly useful for functions invoked as part of your prompt.

I'm pretty proud of my bash-cache utility, which implements a decorator pattern in Bash. Define a function, pass it to bc::cache, and like magic the function is wrapped with a caching layer.

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• ProfileGem

  1 22 3.7 Shell

  A shell configuration utility to compartmentalize and manage your terminal utilities and environment

And like many I've spent waaay too long messing around with my shell environment, which has wound up as ProfileGem, a modular shell environment manager, along with prompt.gem, my custom terminal prompt. Some features that stand out:

• prompt.gem

  2 4 1.8 Shell

  A collection of shell scripts to customize your prompt, distributed as a ProfileGem gem.

And like many I've spent waaay too long messing around with my shell environment, which has wound up as ProfileGem, a modular shell environment manager, along with prompt.gem, my custom terminal prompt. Some features that stand out:

• shrc

  7 10 2.4 Shell

  My bashrc/shrc that supports bash, zsh, busybox ash and even Dash. ( has: OS and shell detection )

• docopt.sh

  5 182 0.0 Python

  Command-line argument parser for bash 3.2, 4+, and 5+.

Honestly, I left it as a gist because even though it reduces boilerplate, getopts is still not a great flag parser (e.g. only supports single-letter flags, and no type safety or other validation aside from boolean / string). I use it in my shell environment since I have lots of shell functions and I don't care to pull in a "real" parser into my shell, but if I was writing any sort of more complex standalone script I probably wouldn't use it. Check out docopt if you haven't seen it, I've been meaning to give that a whirl at some point.
