tps-1.2.9 is not a library.

Tmux project sessioniser

The aim of this program is to be able to create tmux sessions per project and effortlessly create new projects and switch between them effortlessly.

Terminology

Project - A single directory which tps recognises as a target for switching to.
Project Home - A directory which contains many projects. There are 2 types of project home, implicit and explicit. Explicit project homes are defined in a config file and are where projects are discovered from. Implicit project homes are directories within another project home that actually contain multiple projects. The initial example of this is a bare git repo being used for git-worktrees. The program will automatically ignore a .bare directory in a git worktree, which is how I use it. The script I use is in my .dotfiles repo here: repo
Session - A named tmux session which links to a project.

Recommendations

I use neovim to edit code within each project, and I find that using a neovim session restorer goes really nicely with this, as for reasons described below restoring the state of a tmux session after a reboot is... tricky.

Config

An example config file can be found below. On Linux, this is stored at ~/.config/tps/config.toml

project_homes = [
"~/uni/",
"~/proj"
]

projects = [
"~/.dotfiles"
]

skip_current = true
sort_mode = "recent"

Config Options

project_homes is the parent directory of your projects.
projects is other projects that live elsewhere, these are simply added to the list and do not search.
skip_current boolean for whether to exclude the current project from the list (N.B. this functionality could be improved but currently just checks current directory, so it will not work if you execute tps from a subdirectory of a project).
sort_mode is the ordering of the projects. Current options are alphabetical and recent. recent requires a small cache to be stored, which is stored in your default cache directory under tps/, usually ~/.cache.
