Command line tool to search snippets on Commandlinefu.com

Project description

https://travis-ci.org/ncrocfer/clf.svg?branch=master

Commandlinefu.com is the place to record awesome command-line snippets. This tool allows you to search and view the results into your terminal.

Example 1

$ clf python server

  # python smtp server
  python -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:1025

  # Python version 3: Serve current directory tree at http://$HOSTNAME:8000/
  python -m http.server

  # Start a HTTP server which serves Python docs
  pydoc -p 8888 & gnome-open http://localhost:8888

  # put current directory in LAN quickly
  python -m SimpleHTTPServer

  # An alternative to: python -m SimpleHTTPServer for Arch Linux
  python3 -m http.server

Example 2

$ clf recursive line count

  # Recursive Line Count
  find ./ -not -type d | xargs wc -l | cut -c 1-8 | awk '{total += $1} END {print total}'

  # Recursive Line Count
  find * -type f -not -name ".*" | xargs wc -l

  # Get Total Line Count Of All Files In Subdirectory (Recursive)
  find . -type f -name "*.*" -exec cat {} > totalLines 2> /dev/null \; && wc -l totalLines && rm totalLines

  # Recursive Line Count
  wc -l `find . -name *.php`
