Bash-it

A community Bash framework.

github.com/Bash-it/ Bash-it repo

Bash-it is a collection of community Bash commands and scripts for Bash 3.2+. (And a shameless ripoff of oh-my-zsh :smiley:)

Includes autocompletion, themes, aliases, custom functions, a few stolen pieces from Steve Losh, and more.

Bash-it provides a solid framework for using, developing and maintaining shell scripts and custom commands for your daily work. If you’re using the Bourne Again Shell (Bash) on a regular basis and have been looking for an easy way on how to keep all of these nice little scripts and aliases under control, then Bash-it is for you! Stop polluting your ~/bin directory and your .bashrc file, fork/clone Bash-it and start hacking away.

Install

  1. Check out a clone of this repo to a location of your choice, such as: git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/Bash-it/bash-it.git ~/.bash_it
  2. Run ~/.bash_it/install.sh (it automatically backs up your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc, depending on your OS)
  3. Edit your modified config (~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc) file in order to customize Bash-it.
  4. Check out available aliases, completions and plugins and enable the ones you want to use (see the next section for more details).
