xontrib-onepath 0.4.0

Description:

xontribonepath 0.4.0

When you click to a file or folder in graphical OS they will be opened in associated app. The xontrib-onepath brings the same logic to the xonsh shell. Type the filename or path without preceding command and an associated action will be executed. The actions are customizable.


If you like the idea click ⭐ on the repo and tweet.

Install
xpip install -U xontrib-onepath
echo 'xontrib load onepath' >> ~/.xonshrc
# Reload xonsh

Examples
# Run: # Action that will be executed:
/ # cd /
executable_script # ./executable_script
.xonshrc # vim ~/.xonshrc
~/Downloads/logo.png # xdg-open ~/Downloads/logo.png
git # git
./git # cd ./git

Default actions
If typed command is a registered name (i.e. git) and which command returns the path (i.e. /usr/bin/git) it will be executed.
In other case the typed path will be used to make action. Default actions:



Priority
Type
Action




1
<DIR>
cd


2
<XFILE>
<RUN>


3
text/
vim


4
image/
xdg-open



Help to add more types and best default actions. PRs are welcome!
You can add platform and tool depend actions:
import shutil as _shutil
from xonsh.platform import ON_LINUX #, ON_DARWIN, ON_WINDOWS, ON_WSL, IN_APPIMAGE, ON_CYGWIN, ON_MSYS, ON_POSIX, ON_FREEBSD, ON_DRAGONFLY, ON_NETBSD, ON_OPENBSD

xontrib load onepath

if ON_LINUX and _shutil.which('nvim'):
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['text/'] = 'nvim'

File types



#
Type
Example




1
Full path to file.
~/.xonshrc


2
File name.

Examples of actions
Use XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS environment variable to add new actions.
If you need more complex actions use callable xonsh aliases.
Simple actions
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['.xonshrc'] = 'vim' # vim for `.xonshrc` file
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['*.log'] = 'tail' # tail for text type *.log files
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['text/plain.txt'] = 'less' # less for plain text *.txt files
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['<DIR>'] = 'ls' # list the files in the directory
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['application/zip'] = 'als' # list files in zip file using atool

Run xsh regardless the execution permissions
$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS = {'*.xsh':'xonsh', **$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS} # Insert on top
xontrib load onepath
script.xsh # the same as: chmod +x script.xsh && ./script.xsh

View CSV tables using pandas
import pandas as pd
def _view_csv_with_pandas(args):
print(pd.read_csv(args[0]))

aliases['view_csv_with_pandas'] = _view_csv_with_pandas
del _view_csv_with_pandas

$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['application/csv'] = 'view_csv_with_pandas'

cd & ls
def _cdls(args):
cd @(args[0])
if int($(ls | wc -l).strip()) < 100:
ls --group-directories-first -a --color
aliases['cdls'] = _cdls
del _cdls

$XONTRIB_ONEPATH_ACTIONS['<DIR>'] = 'cdls'

Known issues
ImportError: failed to find libmagic
Install libmagic: brew install libmagic.
NTFS in Linux: all files have execute permission
If you mount NTFS partition with default permissions then all files will have execute permission
and onepath will execute them instead of action. The right way
is to change default /etc/fstab settings.
Example:
sudo umount /d
sudo mount -o uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=027,fmask=137 /d
ls -la /d
