Shell-It

Do you have a bunch of tmux helpers? Maybe you constantly need to ssh into various machines. If you have a lot of shell scripts you might find this useful.

Currently this doesn't work with scripts that take additional arguments, it is only designed to run hard-coded shell scripts.

Setup:

Install wherever you want. I put shell-it.sh in a custom directory called ~/.scripts/.

Make sure to include shell-it.sh in your $PATH. My .zshrc includes this:

export PATH="$HOME/.scripts:$PATH"

Alternatively, make an alias pointing directly to shell-it.sh:

alias sh-it="~/path/to/shell-it.sh"

Usage:

By default, Shell-It lists the scripts in your working directory.

shell-it.sh

Output:

Listing scripts in /Users/lesly.kinzel:
1: tunnel.sh
2: tunnel_momo_sql_prod.sh
3: tunnel_rdp_prod_01.sh
4: tunnel_rdp_prod_02.sh
5: tunnel_st_rdp_stage.sh
6: tunnel_st_sql_prod.sh
7: tunnel_st_sql_stage.sh
8: tunnel_ta_sql_prod.sh
Enter number from 1 to 8:

Alternatively, you could give it a directory to look into:

shell-it.sh /usr/bin/

Output:

Listing scripts in /usr/bin/:
1: power_report.sh
Enter number from 1 to 1:

It also has a --help flag.
