Bash it is a mash up of my own bash commands and scripts, other bash stuff I have found.

(And a shameless ripoff of oh-my-zsh. :)

Includes autocompletion, themes, aliases, custom functions, a few stolen pieces from Steve Losh, and more.

1. Check a clone of this repo: git clone http://github.com/revans/bash-it.git ~/.bash_it
2. Run ~/.bash_it/install.sh (it automatically backs up your ~/.bash_profile)
3. Edit your ~/.bash_profile file in order to customize bash-it.

NOTE: The install script will also prompt you asking if you use Jekyll. This is to set up the .jekyllconfig file, which stores info necessary to use the Jekyll plugin.

bash-it show aliases        # shows installed and available aliases
bash-it show completions    # shows installed and available completions
bash-it show plugins        # shows installed and available plugins
bash-it help aliases        # shows help for installed aliases
bash-it help completions    # shows help for installed completions
bash-it help plugins        # shows help for installed plugins

For custom scripts, and aliases, just create the following files (they'll be ignored by the git repo):

• aliases/custom.aliases.bash
• lib/custom.bash
• plugins/custom.plugins.bash

Anything in the custom directory will be ignored, with the exception of custom/example.bash.

There are a few bash it themes. If you've created your own custom prompts, I'd love it if you shared with everyone else! Just submit a Pull Request to me (revans).

I think everyone has their own custom scripts accumulated over time. And so, following in the footsteps of oh-my-zsh, bash it is a framework for easily customizing your bash shell. Everyone's got a custom toolbox, so let's start making them even better, as a community!

Send me a pull request and I'll merge it as long as it looks good. If you change an existing command, please give an explanation why. That will help a lot when I merge your changes in.

Thanks, and happing bashing!
