Create portable custom commands and scripts.

This is currently in beta, but usable.

Usage
------

All the config are located in :code:`$USER/.alfred/alfred.toml`

Config
~~~~~~

.. code-block:: toml

[variables]
mode="debug"

[function.branch]
exec="git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD"

[command.st]
exec="git status"

[command.cc]
exec="git commit -a {@}"

[command.push]
exec="git push {@}"

[command.b]
exec="echo {branch()}"

[command.pythonCall]
exec="~/.alfred/myscript.py::myFunction"
type="python"

Run
~~~

.. code-block:: console

$ alfred st
$ al cc


Variables
~~~~~~~~~

Variables are predefined values that can be injected in commands and functions

Example:

.. code-block:: toml

[variables]
mode="debug"

[command.print]
exec="echo {mode}"


Commands
~~~~~~~~

Predefined commands that will be executed by Alfred

Commands are defined like this

.. code-block:: toml

[command.COMMAND_NAME]
exec="EXECUTION_LINE"
type="shell"
format=true
echo=false
help="HELP INFO"

Where:
- **COMMAND_NAME** is the alias that Alfred will use to identify that command in the cli

- **EXECUTION_LINE** is the code that will be called. Alfred accepts multiline entries, which
will be wrapped in a script file and executed with the default shell executor.

- **type** the type of the command. Alfred currently accepts `shell` and `python` command types

- **format** marks if the instance should apply the formatter in the exec line or not.
If false, the placeholders `{}` will not be interpreted

- **echo** marks if the instance should print the command that will be executed before executing it

- **help** a descriptive message that will be showed in `alfred @list`

Functions
~~~~~~~~~

Functions can be created to enhance command execution during format time and are defined like this:

.. code-block:: toml

[function.FUNCTION_NAME]
exec="EXECUTION_LINE"
format=true

Where:

- **FUNCTION_NAME** is the alias that Alfred will use to identify that function in the formatter

- **EXECUTION_LINE** is the code that will be called. Currently Alfred only accepts one-line shell commands in functions.

- **format** marks if the instance should apply the formatter in the exec line or not.
If false, the placeholders `{}` will not be interpreted
