This script will help you to add an Alias for every directory in your Shell. Currently it just supports Linux ( Debian Based Distributions ).

With Teleport you can set a name for each directory you want and easily access that through shell, you can set name for nested folders and access them by entering a simple word

1. In order not to break your current profile, the script creates a new file named: .bash_aliases in you home directory, you need to add below lines at the end of you .bashrc file in /home/username/.bashrc ( username should be edited to yours )

if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
    . ~/.bash_aliases
fi

2. Place built package (teleport) in /usr/local/bin or in /usr/bin/ you also can make a shortcut with ln -s to make it easier :

    ln -s <path to teleport built file> /usr/local/bin/sv
   

   which sv will be a short name for teleport

3. Head to each directory you intend to and run sv alias which sv is the name of teleport built app you previously made a shortcut of and alias is the name you want to assign to that direction.

4. From now on you can jump to the directory easily by write your alias name.

With arguments you can use differentfeatures of teleport. currently Teleport supports below arguments:

• cat - prints current aliases. like: teleport cat

• (empty) - if you leave the argument empty, it prints your current location. like teleport

• (location name) - when you head to a location that you want to save, you simply use teleport and location alias as argument. like: teleport mycode
