Description:

archelonc 0.6.0

Curses based application for command history that can be wired up to a
Web server (archelond) for shared shell history across multiple hosts.

Installation
pip install archelonc
Once that is setup you can try it out by running . archelon this
uses your existing shell history to let you try out the client. To
make this work more like the bash reverse history search via C-r I
recommend adding:
bind '"\033a":". archelon\n"'
this will launch the reverse search of archelon via Alt-A.


Web Enabled History
From here you can use archelon as is, but the cool part really start
when you install archelond and wire the client up to use that project
for shared and indexed shell history. To configure the client side
after you have setup the server, you just need to add two environment
variables to the mix.

ARCHELON_URL - Web URL to your archelond installation
ARCHELON_TOKEN - The API token for your user. You can get this
by going to https://your.archelond.domain/api/v1/token and logging in with
the username and password you’ve created.

Add those to .bashrc, .profile, or whichever shell startup you
are using and it will be hooked up to the Web server. You can verify
this and populate your Web history by running the archelon_import
command which will import your current computers history.


Keyboard Shortcuts
Within the client curses application, there are a few handy keyboard shortcuts.

Alt-o:
This presses the Ok button and runs whatever command is in the
command field.

Alt-c:
This presses the cancel button and exits out of the application
without running a command. Ctrl-C also works, but currently
has a nasty exception message.

Ctrl-x:
This brings up the menu for doing things like changing the order of the
search results.




Within Menus
Within the menu there are also keyboard shortcuts. And are executed
emacs style, i.e. Ctrl-x Ctrl-f to set sorting order to
oldest->newest. So far those are:

Ctrl-f:
Sort results from oldest to newest

Ctrl-r:
Default order. Sort results from newest to oldest.
