Bashers

Installable bash command helpers

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install bashers

Or with uv:

uv pip install bashers

Local install (from this repo):

pip install .

Or install from a built wheel:

pip install dist/bashers-*.whl

Usage

After installation, use the bashers dispatcher:

bashers update
bashers update requests
bashers show
bashers show requests
bashers setup
bashers setup --frozen
bashers gh
bashers gh --dry-run

Verify the command is on PATH:

which bashers

If you are using a virtualenv or uv, make sure its bin/ directory is active in your shell.

Shell Completion

Bash completion:

source <(bashers completion)

The completion script auto-installs to ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/bashers on first run. If you prefer, you can enable it manually (example):

bashers completion > ~/.bash_completion.d/bashers

Spinner

The default loader uses a built-in dots13 spinner and has no extra dependencies. Disable it with NO_SPINNER=1.

Development

To install in development mode:

uv sync

Or with pip:

pip install -e .

Run tests:

pytest

Adding New Commands

1. Add your bash script under the bashers/ directory (subfolders are OK)
2. If you want a bash function, define a function with the same name as the file
3. Reinstall: uv sync or pip install -e .
