    Distrobox

    Distrobox

    Use any linux distribution inside your terminal

    Use any Linux distribution inside your terminal. Enable both backward and forward compatibility with software and freedom to use whatever distribution you’re more comfortable with. Distrobox uses podman, docker or lilipod to create containers using the Linux distribution of your choice. The created container will be tightly integrated with the host, allowing sharing of the HOME directory of the user, external storage, external USB devices and graphical apps (X11/Wayland), and audio. Simply put it's a fancy wrapper around podman, docker, or lilipod to create and start containers highly integrated with the hosts. The distrobox environment is based on an OCI image. This image is used to create a container that seamlessly integrates with the rest of the operating system by providing access to the user's home directory, the Wayland and X11 sockets, networking, removable devices (like USB sticks), systemd journal, SSH agent, D-Bus, ulimits, /dev and the udev database, etc.

    tfenv

    tfenv

    Terraform version manager

    Terraform version manager inspired by rbenv. The trust-tfenv directive means that verification uses a copy of the Hashicorp OpenPGP key found in the tfenv repository. Skipping that directive means that the Hashicorp key must be in the existing default trusted keys. By default, console output from tfenv does not print a date stamp or log severity. Some variables allow you to pass a string containing a command that will be executed using eval in order to produce a prefix to each console output line, and each FILE type log entry. If you put a .terraform-version file on your project root, or in your home directory, tfenv detects it and uses the version written in it. If the version is latest or latest:<regex>, the latest matching version currently installed will be selected.

    todo.txt-cli

    todo.txt-cli

    A simple and extensible shell script for managing your todo.txt file

    If you have a file called todo.txt on your computer right now, you're in the right place. So many power users try dozens of complicated todo list software applications, only to go right back to their trusty todo.txt file. But it's not easy to open todo.txt, make a change, and save it, especially on your touchscreen device and at the command line. Todo.txt apps solve that problem. Simplicity is todo.txt's core value. You're not going to find many checkboxes, drop-downs, reminders, or date pickers here. Todo.txt apps are minimal, todo.txt-focused editors which help you manage your tasks with as few keystrokes and taps as possible. Countless productivity apps and sites store your tasks in their own proprietary database and file format. But you can work with your todo.txt file in every text editor ever made, regardless of operating system or vendor. With a simple but powerful shell script called todo.sh, you can interact with todo.txt at the command line for quick and easy, Unix-y access.

    aws-mwaa-local-runner

    CLI that replicates an Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow

    This repository provides a command-line interface (CLI) utility that replicates an Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) environment locally. The CLI builds a Docker container image locally that’s similar to an MWAA production image. This allows you to run a local Apache Airflow environment to develop and test DAGs, custom plugins, and dependencies before deploying to MWAA. To stop the local environment, Ctrl+C on the terminal and wait till the local runner and the postgres containers are stopped. You can setup the local Airflow's boto with the intended execution role to test your DAGs with AWS operators before uploading to your Amazon S3 bucket.

    bash-completion

    bash-completion

    Programmable completion functions for bash

    bash-completion is a collection of command-line command completions for the Bash shell, a collection of helper functions to assist in creating new completions, and a set of facilities for loading completions automatically on-demand, as well as installing them. The easiest way to install this software is to use a package; refer to Repology for a comprehensive list of operating system distributions, package names, and available versions. Depending on the package, you may still need to source it from either /etc/bashrc or ~/.bashrc (or any other file sourcing those). If you don't have the package readily available for your distribution, or you simply don't want to use one, you can install bash-completion using the standard commands for GNU Autotools packages. If you find that a given function is producing errors or does not work as it should under certain circumstances when you attempt completion, try running set -x or set -v prior to attempting the completion again.

    dehydrated

    dehydrated

    letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script

    letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script, just add water. Dehydrated is a client for signing certificates with an ACME-server (e.g. Let’s Encrypt or ZeroSSL) implemented as a relatively simple bash script. It uses the OpenSSL utility for everything related to actually handling keys and certificates, so you need to have that installed. Other dependencies are cURL, sed, grep, mktemp (all found on almost any system, cURL being the only exception). Please keep in mind that this software and even the acme-protocol are relatively young and may still have some unresolved issues. Feel free to report any issues you find with this script or contribute by submitting a pull request. dehydrated is looking for a config file in a few different places, it will use the first one it can find.

    desk

    desk

    A lightweight workspace manager for the shell

    Lightweight workspace manager for the shell. Desk makes it easy to flip back and forth between different project contexts in your favorite shell. Change directory, activate a virtualenv or rvm, load in domain-specific aliases, environment variables, functions, arbitrary shell files, all in a single command. Instead of relying on CTRL-R to execute and recall ("that command's gotta be here somewhere..."), desk helps shorten and document those actions with shell aliases and functions, which are then namespaced under a particular desk. Because Deskfiles are just enriched shell scripts, the possibilities are endless. For example, when doing work on AWS I have desk securely load AWS API keys into environment variables via pass -- no effort on my part, and no risk of accidentally persisting that sensitive information to a history file.
