termrc
Take your iTerm2 environments with you wherever you go.
Description
Termrc allows you to store information about your project's environment for a given project in a small YAML file called a .termrc file. Restoring your project's environment is as simple as calling termrc start. Enjoy.
Quick Start
$ gem install termrc
$ termrc create
$ termrc start
.termrc file
The .termrc file is a YAML file which stores information about your project's environment. An environment, in this context, is an iTerm2 window with various panes, each with a different default command that is run when the pane opens. The layout dictates what your window looks like, while commands gives you a set of commands you can call for each pane.
Example .termrc
commands:
here: echo "Hello, here."
there: echo "Hello, there."
world: echo "Hello, world."
me: echo "Hello, me."
you: echo "Hello, you."
layout:
- [ 'here', 'there' ] # row 1, with 2 panes
- [ 'world' ] # row 2, with 1 pane
- [ 'me', 'you' ] # row 3, with 2 panes
The Result
A .termrc file is a YAML file which requires two keys: commands and a layout. Each item in layout corresponds to a row of panes in iTerm2. So, for instance, the example .termrc file above would produce a new iTerm2 window with the following commands running inside each pane:
You can supply an optional third key, root, which indicates the root directory you'd like each command to be run inside of.
