sindri-dev 0.1.2

A project-configurable command palette for common dev workflows

Sindri

A project-configurable command palette for common dev workflows. Sindri provides an interactive TUI (Text User Interface) and CLI for managing project-specific commands, making it easy to run setup, build, test, and deployment tasks.

Features

• 🎯 Interactive TUI: Beautiful terminal interface with search, filtering, and command details
• 📝 Project-Specific Config: Each repository defines its own commands via sindri.toml
• 🚀 Async Execution: Run commands asynchronously with live output streaming
• 🔄 Parallel Execution: Run multiple commands concurrently
• 📊 Multi-Stream Logs: View logs from multiple commands in split panes
• ⚙️ Rich Configuration: Support for dependencies, timeouts, retries, watch mode, and more
• 🐳 Docker Support: Built-in support for Docker and Docker Compose workflows
• 📦 Easy Installation: Install via pip install sindri-dev, use in any project

Quickstart

Installation

pip install sindri-dev

Or install with optional extras:

pip install sindri-dev[docker,compose,git,version,pypi]

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/sindri.git
cd sindri
pip install -e .

Initialize a Project

Navigate to your project directory and run:

sindri init

This creates a sindri.toml file with example commands. Edit it to match your project's needs.

Use Sindri

Open the interactive menu:

sindri

Or run commands directly:

sindri run setup
sindri run start --parallel

Configuration

Sindri uses TOML configuration files. The config file is discovered by searching upwards from the current working directory for sindri.toml or .sindri.toml.

Basic Configuration

version = "1.0"
project_name = "my-project"

[[commands]]
id = "setup"
title = "Setup Project"

shell = "pip install -r requirements.txt"
tags = ["setup", "install"]

[[commands]]
id = "start"
title = "Start Service"
description = "Start the application"
shell = "python -m myproject.main"
tags = ["run", "start"]

Advanced Features

Command Dependencies

[[commands]]

Timeouts and Retries

[[commands]]
id = "long-task"
title = "Long Running Task"
shell = "python long_task.py"
timeout = 300  # 5 minutes
retries = 3

Command Groups

[[groups]]
id = "setup"
title = "Setup"
description = "Setup commands"
order = 1
commands = ["setup", "install"]

Docker Compose Profiles

[[compose_profiles]]
