🛠️ Installation

To install this project, Launch the Terminal app on your system, and run the commands below.

• If a pop-up appears prompting you to download the Xcode Command Line Tools after the first command, click “Download” and then run the first command again.

1. Install mycode

brew tap marsdevx/mycode
brew install mycode

2. Set up mycoderc file

After the first launch of the program, a default configuration file will be created at: ~/.config/mycode/mycoderc

💾 Configuration File Rules:
  - `--add <path>`: Adds all subfolders in the specified path to global projects.
  - `--addspecific <path>`: Adds only the specified folder to global projects.
  - `--remove <path> --from <path>`: Excludes a specific subfolder from a parent path.

🔗 Grouping Projects:
Groups can be defined using `[group:group_name]` syntax in the configuration file.
  - Group-specific rules:
      - `--add <path>`: Adds subfolders to the group only.
      - `--addspecific <path>`: Adds only the specified folder to the group.
      - `--remove <path> --from <path>`: Excludes a specific subfolder in the group.
  - Example:
      [group:example_group]
      {
          --add ~/example/path
          --addspecific ~/example/specific_project
          --remove ~/example/path/excluded_folder --from ~/example/path
      }

3. Set up Shell Autocompletion

Make sure to add the following to your shell config (e.g. ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc):

autoload -Uz compinit bashcompinit
compinit
bashcompinit

eval "$(register-python-argcomplete mycode)"

_mycode() {
  if (( CURRENT > 2 )) &&
      [[ ${words[CURRENT-2]} == --create || ${words[CURRENT-2]} == -c ]]; then
    _files
    return
  fi

  if (( CURRENT > 1 )) &&
      [[ ${words[CURRENT-1]} == --create || ${words[CURRENT-1]} == -c ]]; then
    return
  fi

  _python_argcomplete "$@"
}

compdef _mycode mycode

Then run:

source ~/.zshrc
or
source ~/.bashrc
