ew

ew - short for (run things) e(very)w(here) is a tool for grouping folders by tags, and executing tasks in all folders via these tags.

Getting ew

Grab the latest release, and put it in a executable path. If you want to get hands on, install Go, and check out the latest master branch.

Linux

The following script downloads the latest release to /usr/local/bin/`, and makes it executable.

sudo wget -c https://github.com/kernle32dll/ew/releases/download/v1.0.1/ew-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/ew
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ew

Quickstart

Verify ew is working by executing ew version.

Now, you can either jump to any folder and get started tagging by calling ew tags add @mytag, or edit the ew config file by hand (see #Config below)

Now you can run arbitrary commands for this tag (and so in every configured folder):

ew @mytag cat go.mod

How to use

COMMAND | DESCRIPTION ------- | ---- ew | list all paths, grouped by their tags ew help | displays this help ew --help | displays this help (alias for ew help) ew version | displays version and build time (if applicable) ew --version | displays version and build time (if applicable) (alias for ew version) ew migrate | migrate from mixu/gr config, and keep json format ew migrate --yaml | migrate from mixu/gr config, and use new yaml format ew paths | list all paths (alias for ew paths list) ew paths list | list all paths ew tags | list all tags (alias for ew tags list) ew tags list | list all tags ew tags add @some-tag | add current directory to tag "some-tag" ew tags add \some\path @some-tag | add \some\path to tag "some-tag" ew tags rm @some-tag | add current directory to tag "some-tag" ew tags rm \some\path @some-tag | add \some\path to tag "some-tag" ew status | show quick git status for all paths ew @tag1 status | show quick git status for all paths of tag1 (supports multiple tags) ew @tag1 some-cmd | executes some-cmd in all paths of tag1 (supports multiple tags)

Config

Per default, ew tries to loads its config from either ~/.ewconfig.yml or ~/.ewconfig.json. The default is ~/.ewconfig.yml, if you are migrating from gr its ~/.ewconfig.json.

The config file looks as follows:

~/.ewconfig.yml

tags:
  server:
  - /home/bgerda/tc-git/turtlecoding/common/server-common
