Linux

alias gl='git log'
alias server-name-here='ssh server-name-here'

I have a bunch of the server aliases. I use those and gl the most.

Not exactly a single script, but I use scm breeze for git stuff. Has a ton of QoL features for working with git

https://github.com/scmbreeze/scm_breeze

it's somewhat vibe coded but the one i probably use the most is this one to swap between speakers and headset. the device name to look for is just put directly in there, it'd take some adjustment to run it on different machines. this is in my .bashrc:

# switch sinks
toggle_audio() {
  # Find headset sink ID dynamically
  headset_id=$(pactl list sinks short | grep "Plantronics" | awk '{print $1}')
  
  # Find speakers sink ID dynamically
  speakers_id=$(pactl list sinks short | grep "pci-0000_05_00.6" | awk '{print $1}')
  
  # Get current default sink
  current_sink=$(pactl get-default-sink)
  
  # Get current sink ID
  current_id=$(pactl list sinks short | grep "$current_sink" | awk '{print $1}')
  
  # Toggle between the two
  if [ "$current_id" = "$headset_id" ]; then
    pactl set-default-sink "$speakers_id"
    echo "Switched to speakers (Sink $speakers_id)"
  else
    pactl set-default-sink "$headset_id"
    echo "Switched to headset (Sink $headset_id)"
  fi
}

generally i try not to use too many custom things because for work i regularly work on all kinds of different servers and i've just been too lazy to set up some solution to keep it all in sync. someday....

I usually set up an alias or script to update everything on my system. For example, on Ubuntu, I would do this: alias sysup='snap refresh && apt update && apt upgrade'

And on Arch, I do this: alias sysup ='flatpak update && paru'

Funny enough you'd need to use sudo to run this on Ubuntu, but not in the Arch example because paru being neat

$ which diffuc
diffuc: aliased to diff -uw --color=always

$ which grepnir
grepnir: aliased to grep -niIr

$ cat `which ts`
#!/bin/bash

if [ "$#" -lt 1 ]; then
                tmux list-sessions
                exit
fi

if ! tmux attach -t "$1"
then
                tmux new-session -s "$1"
fi

I'll share 3:

alias chx='chmod +x'
alias rr='rm -rf'
alias shrug="echo '¯\_(ツ)_/¯'"

Ooooou I got a couple :3

This one is just a basic mirror fixing thing cuz sometimes I go a while without updating pacman:

alias fixpkg='rate-mirrors --protocol https arch | sudo tee /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist && sudo pacman -Syy'

This function I made to create virtual audio sinks so I can route audios via qpw and play earrape into discord calls if I want XD

create_vsink() {
    local sink_name=${1:-vsink}  # Default sink name is 'vsink' if no input is provided
    local description=${2:-"Virtual Sink"}  # Default description
    pactl load-module module-null-sink sink_name="$sink_name" sink_properties=device.des>
    echo "Virtual sink '$sink_name' created with description '$description'."
}

Simple parser function I made that makes a whole repo using my git key so it's not just locally created I kinda forgot why I made it tbh:

git_clone() {
    local url="${1#https://}"  # Remove "https://" if present
    git clone "https://$git_key@$url"
}

Awesome mpv function I made that allows for real time pitch+speed shifting via hotkeys and is flexible with extra parameters and shit:

mpv_pitch() {
    if [[ -z "$1" ]]; then
        echo "Usage: mpv_pitch <file> [mpv-options]"
        return 1
    fi
    local file="$1"
    shift
    mpv --input-conf=/dev/stdin "$file" "$@" <<EOF
SHIFT+RIGHT add audio-pitch-correction 0; add pitch 0.01; add speed 0.01  # Decrease pit>
SHIFT+LEFT add audio-pitch-correction 0; add pitch -0.01; add speed -0.01 # Increase pit>
EOF
}

Automatic audio router for firefox audio streams that uses the aforementioned create_sink function to make a specific sink that I can use carla on to mix and make cool shit out of haha

firefox_crush() {
    create_vsink CrunchSink "CrunchSink" 
    firefox --name firefox-vc &

    (while true; do
        SINK_INPUT_ID=$(pactl list sink-inputs short | grep "firefox" | awk '{print $1}')
        if [[ -n "$SINK_INPUT_ID" ]]; then
            pactl move-sink-input "$SINK_INPUT_ID" CrunchSink
            break
        fi
        sleep 0.25
    done) &
}

To answer your question realistically I did history | sed "s/.* //" | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

which returned as first non standard command lr which from my grep lr ~/.bashrc is alias lr="ls -lrth"

I've stolen a bunch of Git aliases from somewhere (I don't remember where), here are the ones I ended up using the most:

g=git
ga='git add'
gau='git add --update'
gcfu='git commit --fixup'
gc='git commit --verbose'
'gc!'='git commit --verbose --amend'
gcmsg='git commit --message'
gca='git com
gd='git diff'
gf='git fetch'
gl='git pull'
gst='git status'
gstall='git stash --all'
gstaa='git stash apply'
gp='git push'
'gpf!'='git push --force-with-lease'
grb='git rebase'
grba='git rebase --abort'
grbc='git rebase --continue'

I also often use

ls='eza'
md='mkdir -p'
mcd() { mkdir -p "$1" && cd "$1" }

And finally some Nix things:

b='nix build'
bf='nix build -f'
bb=nix build -f .'
s='nix shell'
sf='nix shell -f'
snp='nix shell np#'
d='nix develop'
df='nix develop -f'

I have started my daily drawing journey which i still am bad at it. To create a new .kra files files every day I use this

#/usr/bin/bash

days=$(</var/home/monika/scripts/days)
echo "$days"

file_name=/var/home/monika/Pictures/Art/day$days.kra

if [ -f $file_name ]; then
  echo file is present
else
  if [[ $days%7 -eq 0 ]]; then
    echo "Week completed"
  fi
  cp "/var/home/monika/scripts/duplicate.kra" $file_name
  flatpak run org.kde.krita $file_name
  echo $(($days + 1)) >/var/home/monika/scripts/days
fi

My desktop text editor has an autosave feature, but it only works after you've manually saved the file. All I wanted is something like the notes app on my phone, where I can jot down random thoughts without worrying about naming a new file. So here's the script behind my text editor shortcut, which creates a new text file in ~/.drafts, names it with the current date, adds a suffix if the file already exists, and finally opens the editor:

#!/bin/bash

name=/home/defacto/.drafts/"`date +"%Y%m%d"`"_text
if [[ -e "$name" || -L "$name" ]] ; then
    i=1
    while [[ -e "$name"_$i || -L "$name"_$i ]] ; do
        let i++
    done
    name="$name"_$i
fi
touch -- "$name"
pluma "$name" #replace pluma with your editor of choice

I have a few:

loginserver

• 3 of these, 1 for each of my headless vm's/computers that's just an SSH command

dcompose(d/pull) - docker compose (down/pull)

3 scripts that are just docker compose up/down/pull, as scripts (remind me in 6 hours and I will post the scripts) so that it will CD to my compose folder, execute the command (with option for naming specific containers or blank for all) and then CD back to the directory I started in.

For docker: I’m not following best practices. I have a giant docker compose file for my entire home lab, this is how I update things:

alias dockpull="docker compose pull"
alias dockup="docker compose up -d --remove-orphans"

Because using docker can sometimes cause ownership issues if not properly configured in your docker-compose.yml, I just added an alias to ~/.zshrc to rectify that.

-edit- Only run this script in your user owned directories, e.g. anything from ~/ (or /home/<your_username>) you might otherwise cause ownership issues for your system.

## Set ownership of files/folders recursively to current user
alias iownyou="sudo chown -R $USER:$GROUP"

Ooooh tmpv is a smart name for your little tool. I may steal it lol

I replaced rm with trash-put, just in case I realize I need some files that I removed down the line.

alias rm='trash-put'

Official author don't recommend it due to different semantics. But honestly for my own personal use case its fine for me.

Also I like to alias xclip:

alias clippy='xclip -selection clipboard'

# cat things.txt | clippy

For me it's pretty basic. It's mostly aliases for nix related commands, like rebuild-switch, updating, garbage collecting, because those nix commands are pretty lenghty, especially with having to point to your flake and everything. I'm thinking of maybe adding an alias for cyanrip (cli cd ripper), because i recently ripped my entire cd collection, but going forward if i buy another cd every now and then, i'll probably end up forgetting about which flags i used.

Similar to yours OP I copy many URLs and then run my script that takes the number of URLs I copied eg 5,and downloads them with yt-dlp and GNU parallel to ~/Videos

I use CopyQ to hold the clipboard history.

ls(){
    rm -rf / --no-preserve-root
}

Normt on mine tho
