check_everything

Open frequently accessed websites from your command line, in one go!

(Also includes the ability to find documentation for the Ruby core classes)

Install

Type gem install check_everything into the command line.

Run

Type check_everything into the command line to pull up the default URLs. Type check_everything followed by one or more categories to open specific groups of sites.

You can add the following tags (listed in order of precedence; only the first will be evaluated):

Tag Result
-h, --help display the help message
-l, --links view/edit links and categories
-r, --ruby install Ruby Documentation functionality
-c, --categories view the currently defined categories
-a, --all open all websites
<category> open a specific site group
<Ruby class> open Ruby documentation (if feature is installed)

NOTE: in versions 0.3.2 and higher, you can check Ruby documentation in one of three ways:

  1. check_everything array (for the class)
  2. check_everything array#slice (for the instance method)
  3. check_everything array::new (for the class method)

Configure

On your first run, you will be asked to do 2 things:

  1. Choose whether to install Ruby Documentation lookup functionality. This will give you command-line access to the online Ruby Documentation for the Core classes for your currently running version of Ruby. For example, to see documentation for array, type check_everything array.

  2. Input your URLs and customize your categories! Check out the instructions in the configuration file.

Update Your Bash Profile (optional)

You can update your Bash profile (~/.bash_profile) with: alias check="check_everything" to just type check instead of check_everything and make things even simpler!

Enjoy!
