CDD - Change directories Dynamically

I am lazy and turns out that basic tab completion wasn't enough for me to navigate through my directories using cd

Hence I made cdd. This tool helps me create aliases to location which I can jump to at anytime from anywhere.
There is also a cdo command that has the same fuctionality like cdd but will open the required path in the file manager rather than in the terminal.

And the best part is that cdd also has the basic functionality of cd.

Installation steps

  1. Clone the repo. Open a terminal at the cloned path.
  2. If you use zsh do cd dist/mac-zsh or on bash cd dist/bash-linux
  3. . ./install.sh

How to use

You can use the -h to get info about the commands that you have, but here's the gist of it

# Add an alias
cdd add <alias_name> <target/relative_destination> [flags]

# Delete an alias
cdd delete <alias_name> [flags]

# List all aliases
cdd -l

Note

  1. In the help section of the cli you might see help text for some commands with gcdd rather than cdd for now. This is because the main script is a wrapper around a CLI made in golang using cobra. That CLI uses the gcdd command as it's root command

  2. The cdo works well on mac, but for linux, it only works on gnome.
