cli-commands-kit 1.0.1

A unified CLI wrapper for common terminal commands.

cli-commands

cli-commands provides a single entrypoint for common terminal tasks. It keeps commands short, consistent, and easy to remember.

Package Names

• GitHub repo: cli-commands
• PyPI package: cli-commands-kit (install with pip install cli-commands-kit)
• Legacy package: linux-command (older name; still installable but no longer updated)

Why cli-commands

Linux commands are powerful but easy to forget, especially for archives and process checks. cli-commands lowers the mental load with a unified syntax that reads like the task itself. For example, cmd tar <source> <output.tar> means “pack <source> into <output.tar>,” no long flags to recall.

Installation

To install the package, run the following command:

pip install cli-commands-kit

Install From Source (Development)

If you want to develop or modify the tool locally:

git clone https://github.com/MouxiaoHuang/cli-commands.git
cd cli-commands
pip install -e .

Usage

Once installed, run commands with cmd <command> [args...] or cli <command> [args...].

• cmd -h / cmd --help lists all available commands.
• cmd <command> -h shows usage and examples for a specific command.
• cli behaves the same as cmd (alternate entrypoint).

Quick examples:

cmd tar ./src out.tar.gz
cmd untar archive.tar.gz ./out
cmd ps-grep python

Before vs cmd:

tar -czvf out.tar.gz ./src        ->  cmd tar ./src out.tar.gz
tar -xzvf archive.tar.gz -C ./out ->  cmd untar archive.tar.gz ./out
ps aux | grep python              ->  cmd ps-grep python

Full command list, examples, and aliases live in USAGE.md.
