Getting Started and Installation

• Clone the repository.

  cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/debaraj-barua/.bashCustomizations.git

• Add the lines below to your .bashrc file. If you do not need any functionality, comment or remove that particular line.

  if [  -d "$HOME"/.bashCustomizations/ ]; then
    # npm functionalities

[Note] Using Conda with ROS Functionality

This has been taken from StefanFabian's gist

1. Remove the line that adds the anaconda bin folder to your PATH in the ~/.bashrc file (if you've let anaconda add itself to the PATH during installation)
2. Change _ROS_CONDA_PATH in conda_with_ros file @line 23 to the path of your Anaconda bin folder (if you didn't install it to ~/anaconda3)
3. Add the scripts mentioned above before any ROS setup bash files are sourced.

[Note] Random

In addition to useful bash scripts, the random directory has a list of known issues, workarounds and scripts not related to bash.

How To Use

Aliases Defined

Command	Alias
Get rid of command not found:
cd..	cd ..
Quicker change directory:
cd ..	..
cd ../..	...
cd ../../..	....
cd ../../../..	.....
Resume wget by default:
wget -c	wget
Restart network-manager:
sudo service network-manager restart	net-restart
Quicker apt commands:
sudo apt update	a-update
sudo apt upgrade	a-upgrade
sudo apt install	a-install
What does your gut say:
gut	echo ACCORDING TO MY GUT: && echo && git
Using Anaconda with ROS:
activate anaconda environment	release-the-snake
deactivate anaconda environment	cage-the-snake
Docker Aliases:
Clean all docker containers	clean-docker
Run docker container interactively	dockerRunInteractive
Shorten Prompt:
shorten prompt <user>:<pwd basename>	short-prompt
long prompt <user>@host:<pwd>	long-prompt
Node Aliases:
Clean npm project	clean-node

Package Specific Functionalities

Git

• Update prompt when in a git repository.
• Add branch details to prompt.
• Prompts updated according to git status
  • '*' for un-staged changes
  • '+' for staged changes
  • '$' if something is stashed
  • '%' if there are any un-tracked files

Node Package Manager (npm)

• Add functionality to enable auto complete features for npm cli.
• Sets npm install path to home

Using Anaconda with ROS

• As described before, this enables usage of anaconda for ROS users without running into conflicts.
• Enable and disable conda environments via the aliases mentioned in the table above.
• Updates the prompt to add conda identifier.

.bashcustomizations's Issues

short-prompt and long-prompt doesnot append information already in prompt

eg:

• conda env gets lost
• time gets removed
