lcode

This CLI tool lists all your repositories, and upon selection, it changes path to the repo and starts Visual Studio Code or any other command provided.

Demo

Usage

Using global install:

npm i -g @rkristelijn/lcode # install globally
lcode # runs in the current directory with maxdepth to 3
lcode ~ 5 # runs in ~ with maxdepth 5
lcode ~ 5 zsh # runs in ~ with maxdepth 5 and executes zsh instead of vscode
lcode ~ 5 \". ~/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm use && code .\" # executes nvm to load proper node version and starts
lcode ~ 5 \"[ -f .nvmrc ] && . ~/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm use; code .\" # only executes nvm when .nvmrc exists to load proper node version and starts

# with config file
lcode --init # creates a config file with default ~ and 5 in ~/.lcodeconfig
code ~/.lcodeconfig # opens up the config file
lcode --cleanup # removes the config file

Using npx:

npx @rkristelijn/lcode [path] [maxDepth]

Arguments

1. path (optional): The path to start searching from. Defaults to the current directory if not provided.
2. maxDepth (optional): The maximum depth to search for repositories. Defaults to 3 if not provided.
3. cmd (optional): The command to execute, defaults to code .

Configuration

You can create a configuration file named .lcodeconfig in your home directory (~) to set default values for the path and maxDepth arguments. Example:

{
  "path": "~/Documents", // your starting path, like ~
  "maxDepth": 3, // max depth of searching for git repos
  "execute": "bash" // executes bash instead of 'code .'
}
