Simple command-line snippet manager, written in Go
You can use variables (<param>
or <param=default_value>
) in snippets.
pet
is written in Go, and therefore you can just grab the binary releases and drop it in your $PATH.
pet
is a simple command-line snippet manager (inspired by memo).
I always forget commands that I rarely use. Moreover, it is difficult to search them from shell history. There are many similar commands, but they are all different.
e.g.
$ awk -F, 'NR <=2 {print $0}; NR >= 5 && NR <= 10 {print $0}' company.csv
(What I am looking for)$ awk -F, '$0 !~ "DNS|Protocol" {print $0}' packet.csv
$ awk -F, '{print $0} {if((NR-1) % 5 == 0) {print "----------"}}' test.csv
In the above case, I search by awk
from shell history, but many commands hit.
Even if I register an alias, I forget the name of alias (because I rarely use that command).
So I made it possible to register snippets with description and search them easily.

pet
has the following features.
- Register your command snippets easily.
- Use variables in snippets.
- Search snippets interactively.
- Run snippets directly.
- Edit snippets easily (config is just a TOML file).
- Sync snippets via Gist or GitLab Snippets automatically.
Some examples are shown below.
By adding the following config to .bashrc
or .zshrc
, you can easily register the previous command.
function prev() {
PREV=$(echo `history | tail -n2 | head -n1` | sed 's/[0-9]* //')
sh -c "pet new `printf %q "$PREV"`"
}
$ cat .zshrc
function prev() {
PREV=$(fc -lrn | head -n 1)
sh -c "pet new `printf %q "$PREV"`"
}
See below for details.

By adding the following config to .bashrc
, you can search snippets and output on the shell.
$ cat .bashrc
function pet-select() {
BUFFER=$(pet search --query "$READLINE_LINE")
READLINE_LINE=$BUFFER
READLINE_POINT=${#BUFFER}
}
bind -x '"\C-x\C-r": pet-select'
$ cat .zshrc
function pet-select() {
BUFFER=$(pet search --query "$LBUFFER")
CURSOR=$#BUFFER
zle redisplay
}
zle -N pet-select
stty -ixon
bindkey '^s' pet-select
See below for details.

By using pbcopy
on OS X, you can copy snippets to clipboard.
The snippets are managed in the TOML file, so it's easy to edit.
You can share snippets via Gist.
To experience pet
in action, try it out in this free O'Reilly Katacoda scenario, Pet, a CLI Snippet Manager. As an example, you'll see how pet
may enhance your productivity with the Kubernetes kubectl
tool. Explore how you can use pet
to curated a library of helpful snippets from the 800+ command variations with kubectl
.

------------------------------
Run pet configure
[General]
snippetfile = "path/to/snippet" # specify snippet directory
editor = "vim" # your favorite text editor
column = 40 # column size for list command
selectcmd = "fzf" # selector command for edit command (fzf or peco)
backend = "gist" # specify backend service to sync snippets (gist or gitlab, default: gist)
sortby = "description" # specify how snippets get sorted (recency (default), -recency, description, -description, command, -command, output, -output)
[Gist]
file_name = "pet-snippet.toml" # specify gist file name
access_token = "" # your access token
gist_id = "" # Gist ID
public = false # public or priate
auto_sync = false # sync automatically when editing snippets
[GitLab]
file_name = "pet-snippet.toml" # specify GitLab Snippets file name
access_token = "XXXXXXXXXXXXX" # your access token
id = "" # GitLab Snippets ID
visibility = "private" # public or internal or private
auto_sync = false # sync automatically when editing snippets
Example1: Change layout (bottom up)
$ pet configure
[General]
...
selectcmd = "fzf"
...
Example2: Enable colorized output
$ pet configure
[General]
...
selectcmd = "fzf --ansi"
...
$ pet search --color
You can use tags (delimiter: space).
$ pet new -t
Command> ping 8.8.8.8
Description> ping
Tag> network google
Or edit manually.
$ pet edit
[[snippets]]
description = "ping"
command = "ping 8.8.8.8"
tag = ["network", "google"]
output = ""
They are displayed with snippets.
$ pet search
[ping]: ping 8.8.8.8 #network #google
You must obtain access token.
Go https://github.com/settings/tokens/new and create access token (only need "gist" scope).
Set that to access_token
in [Gist]
or use an environment variable with the name $PET_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN
.
After setting, you can upload snippets to Gist.
If gist_id
is not set, new gist will be created.
$ pet sync
Gist ID: 1cedddf4e06d1170bf0c5612fb31a758
Upload success
Set Gist ID
to gist_id
in [Gist]
.
pet sync
compares the local file and gist with the update date and automatically download or upload.
If the local file is older than gist, pet sync
download snippets.
$ pet sync
Download success
If gist is older than the local file, pet sync
upload snippets.
$ pet sync
Upload success
Note: -u
option is deprecated
You must obtain access token.
Go https://gitlab.com/profile/personal_access_tokens and create access token.
Set that to access_token
in [GitLab]
or use an environment variable with the name $PET_GITLAB_ACCESS_TOKEN
..
After setting, you can upload snippets to GitLab Snippets.
If id
is not set, new snippet will be created.
$ pet sync
GitLab Snippet ID: 12345678
Upload success
Set GitLab Snippet ID
to id
in [GitLab]
.
pet sync
compares the local file and gitlab with the update date and automatically download or upload.
If the local file is older than gitlab, pet sync
download snippets.
$ pet sync
Download success
If gitlab is older than the local file, pet sync
upload snippets.
$ pet sync
Upload success
You can sync snippets automatically.
Set true
to auto_sync
in [Gist]
or [GitLab]
.
Then, your snippets sync automatically when pet new
or pet edit
.
$ pet edit

You need to install selector command (fzf or peco).
homebrew
install fzf
automatically.
Go to the releases page, find the version you want, and download the zip file. Unpack the zip file, and put the binary to somewhere you want (on UNIX-y systems, /usr/local/bin or the like). Make sure it has execution bits turned on.
You can use homebrew on OS X.
$ brew install knqyf263/pet/pet
If you receive an error (Error: knqyf263/pet/pet 64 already installed
) during brew upgrade
, try the following command
$ brew unlink pet && brew uninstall pet
($ rm -rf /usr/local/Cellar/pet/64)
$ brew install knqyf263/pet/pet
