Pal is a command line tool to generate an alias to cd into each of your projects. An alias can also be generated to open the directory with your editor's CLI command, e.g. nvim, code, subl.

brew install jaytyrrell13/tap/pal

Download the latest release archive from the releases page.

To get started, you may execute Pal's install command to create the config file in ~/.config/pal/config.json.

pal install

The create command will ask, "What type of alias would you like to create?," with three options, "Parent", "Directory", and "Action". Use "Parent" to create aliases for the child directories under a specific directory. Use "Directory" to create an alias for a single directory. Use "Action" to create an alias for a command or script (ex. alias "ll" for "ls -lah").

pal create

The update command allows updating the name or command for one or more aliases.

pal update

The remove command allows removing one or more aliases.

pal remove

The list command will print out all the aliases currently in ~/.config/pal/aliases.

pal list

The config command allows listing or updating config values.

pal config list

pal config update
