I was getting the above error when trying to run any keep command. Rolled back to v.2.4.2.

keep run without any argument should list all the saved commands with numbers and ask us to choose from that list.

I had to reinstall Yosemite on my MacAir due tosome issues. Before doing the reinstall, I pushed all my keep commands to your Heroku server. Now there is no way to Sign-In and pull my commands.

Luckily I have a backup of my ~/.keep folder from where I can get my commands.

Entirely suspect user error of some form but I'm not much of a python developer and don't see anything overly wrong there.
Running keep works fine.
Above trace was from keep list
Reverting back to 2.4.2 works fine other than a nag to update.

some of the issues are fixed, but i am still getting error when I install keep using pip.
for eg.

This error is already fixed and merged in master.

I have been using this tool for a while. It's amazing and very useful. It would be better if we could run commands with arguments (e.g passing variable data), so we don't have to write the whole command everytime.

When I use the Keep Push command I get the following output;
Traceback (most recent call last):

Commands.json is created on Github but doesn't contain anything.

Because of Issue #41, I'd like to use keep without the sync. What's the best way to do this?

Getting UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 0-2: ordinal not in range(128)
after trying to search command with grep:
╰─± python slack_bot.py 2>&1 | tee /tmp/slack.log

How about command templates?
say I have to run following command again n again.
python logplot.py run_NPT_long_prod_jan_30.txt Step TotEng

Is there a way I can replace the .txt file each time? A command template or something similar is what I can think of now.

After executing a command using keep, the command history of the shell should also be updated.

I think the below screenshot will help you understand the issue.

When I keep edit and try to delete all my commands then try to save the file, it doesn't save my changes. Therefore when I type keep list again it shows my list with my old commands and without my changes. Not sure if this is a huge problem because you could just keep rm all your commands or just keep init to get an empty list again but thought I'd mention it.

How can I use commands from ~/.zsh_history in keep?

something like, keep ssh from history -- gives me option to choose from all the commands that have ssh in them (via grep?)

Profile the whole codebase and identify the bottlenecks.

Hi there, great work on this package!

One feature I feel like a big miss is to allow the possibility of an alias association to the new command. Don't you think this would be useful?

Thank you,
Paolo

I am trying out keep. I want the ability to type "keep run" and select a number from the list:

keep run 3

I do not want to have to press Y/n every time, this is quite annoying.

I see you can type a command "keep run command -n" and not get the conformation. How can I remove the confirmation when selecting a command from the run list?

For keep to be useful it needs to save time over doing a reverse search but these speed bumps add a lot of friction.

Hi,
Thanks for this great util!

How can I remove a command? I tried removing by description and the command but it did not work.

When using keep on "dump" terminals (TERM=dumb) the command keep list produces a table with the wrong escape sequences:

^[(0lqqqqqqqqqqqqwqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqwqqqqqqqk^[(B
^[(0x^[(B Command    �(0x�(B Description                                       �(0x�(B Alias �(0x�(B

^[(0tqqqqqqqqqqqqnqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqnqqqqqqqu^[(B

Is it possible to fall back to plain ASCII output (as, I think, it was in older versions)? Or force plain ASCII output with a command line option?

Store the database at a central place and make it available to the user at each one of their computers.

The current keep run command seems to be occupying quite a lot of unnecessary space. Shouldn't this be made more compact?

A schema number helps in migrating the old database to a new schema when new features are added in the library.
As of now there is no schema number assigned, and with addition of alias, the commands will break.

keep --help takes about 0.42 seconds. The python functions inside utils all take time in milliseconds.

I have absolutely no clue. Maybe click is adding a lot of overhead.

Nice and simple tool! Just installed it today.
My first idea to improve it slightly: suggestions after the run command when pressing tab.
I don't know about the bash stuff, but if it's easy to implement, it would be worth. At least I would probably use it a lot ;)

Hello.

I have an enhancement proposal.

I think it will be great add option to save settings in personal github gist.

For example, many extentions in Atom and VS code sync settings by this way:
https://github.com/atom-community/sync-settings
https://github.com/shanalikhan/code-settings-sync

Pros:

• No more security issues
• Network requests slow down keep
• It's not a critical feature
  Cons:
• Need to find additional ways to sync the dotfiles

I'll go ahead and remove the heroku app out of the software.

I tried keep with a cd command but got nothing...

I didn't do keep init first, so the folder wasn't there, and keep credential file failed to create.
Register fails because the user exists on your heroku api server.
How can I reset the credentials?

I ran keep github_token successfully. Got this

Then I ran keep push , I got the below error.

Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXJPEQlpnZQ

@icyflame's suggestion:

A couple of things about Himanshu's demo:

1. You can use arguments in the middle using Bash functions. It's very useful for things like ImageMagick, youtube-dl, ffmpeg, etc.
2. I kept comparing keep to `history | ag "search"` and the zsh autocomplete plugin. So, if keep were just as fast as those two, it would be worth a try!

I can certainly see `keep`'s usefulness for people starting out with the command line. :+1:

Output of keep list is unreadable when storing really long commands in keep (see screenshot, please). It’s good idea to use for it list with highlighting (like git log) but not table, I think.

I installed Keep on a new server.

It'd be a good feature to allow user to delete a saved command using keep command.

Not sure if this is the only roadblock to windows compatibility, but I think the %D strftime format code isn't compatible with windows?

Hi,

This is a great tool. I work on multiple projects at a time and was wondering if there is a way to categorize or group commands in some way? By a project label for eg?

Thanks,

After 862482e, install_requires in setup.py should include terminaltables instead of tabulate:

        install_requires=[
            'click',
            'requests',
            'terminaltables'
        ],

I tried registering without doing keep init and just tried doing keep register, when I did this the registration happened on the server side, and the key was received, but without the directory being set up, I was unable to recover the key generated along with my primary email.

Hi

Please add an option just to print out the bare command, not run them.

Thanks

The keep command does not appear to be changing CDPATH even though the exact same command run without keep seems to work:

(base) user:~$ echo $CDPATH
/home/mike
(base) user:~$ keep run set

 1	$ export CDPATH=.:~/Documents/programming_projects/ :: Set CDPATH to ~ and programming_projects

Execute
	$ export CDPATH=.:~/Documents/programming_projects/ :: Set CDPATH to ~ and programming_projects

? [Y/n]: y
(base) user:~$ echo $CDPATH
/home/mike
(base) user:~$ export CDPATH=.:~/Documents/programming_projects/
(base) user:~$ echo $CDPATH
.:/home/mike/Documents/programming_projects/

Any idea whats going on here?

I have solved this problem by keeping a unified dotfiles repo that pulls in additional *.zsh files depending on the hostname. Installation is basic:

{package manager of choice} install zsh git
git clone {my dotfiles repo} ~/.dotfiles/
cd ~/.dotfiles && ./install

Dotbot takes care of installing additional stuff and linking the .zsh files (among other shared conf). Setting it up on a new machine is a breeze and updating the repo boils down to a git pull and . ~/.zshrc (which can be aliased).

If you want to have a way to lookup stuff then just set an alias for grepping/ag the ~/.dotfiles/ folder and keep comments on each alias. Running stuff is just typing in the alias (which is auto-completed y zsh either ways).

This has an additional bonus of a shared repository of aliases (which by design are mnemonic and easy to remember). Also Cross-distribution stuff can be abstracted away too with basic conditional logic so that i {package name} will install stuff no matter what distro I'm currently on, etc.

Also the hostname-based includes allow me to exclude stuff that are not required (eg. ADB stuff on my Raspberry Pi which I use only through SSH or setting a lightweight prompt for it).

On top of that there are no external dependencies (not counting ZSH, git and python 2.6=>).

What advantage this project has over that setup?

When saving new commands with keep, if some "word" is prefixed with $, it becomes a variable. And when it is run by keep, the tool asks for an input.

Document this behaviour well in the README and maybe in keep CLI. A lot of users are not aware about it.
