bastr

CLI string manipulation utility

oclif Version Downloads/week License

Description

bastr takes stdin content and provide functions to modify the content. It is meant as an alternative to using sed, tr, awk and other utilities for simple string and array manipulation.

The unix utilities are probably more performant and more powerful - this utility only exists because it is easier and more semantic to use.

Advanced Use: Scripts

Scripts in bastr are sequences of predefined actions. To create a new script, use the bs script:add command and follow along with the prompts

To list your scripts, use bs script:list.

To apply a script, use (someprocess) | bs script [scriptname]

Examples

$ echo -n "capitalize all words" | bs split " " | bs capitalize | bs join " "
>>> Capitalize All Words
$ ps | bs lineArray | bs findItem bash | bs getItem 0 | bs split -r "\s+" | bs getItem 3
>>> /usr/local/bin/bash
