z-rs

z_rs implements a directory jumping command line utility

The original is a 200 line shell classic https://github.com/rupa/z/blob/master/z.sh

This is an opinionated rewrite instead of being 1:1 with the original. Most notably, this does not override cd in any way, and needs to be used instead of cd to build the cache.

This provides a z_rs binary, which can be invoked for configuration and lookup.

Installation

cargo install z-rs

Configuration

add

eval "$(z_rs init --cmd z --cache $HOME/.z_rs)"

in your shell configuration file.

The --cmd option is the name of the command that will be added to the shell. For example, in this case, a z command will be created.

Usage

If configured with the command name z, then simply do

z foo bar

will try to match foo and bar and if a match is found in the cache, will cd to it, otherwise error out.

Matches occur based on "frecency". The rank of a path is how many times it has been accessed. The command will return the highest ranked matching record. If there are multiple, it will return the most recently accessed one.
