How it Works
The actual idea of SyncShell is synchronization of your all device's shell history, it means you don't need to have concerns when you want to sync your office and home machine's shell history. Application integrated and built on top of Github Gist, and written in Python (CLI).
According to Github API, you can generate a token key with gist scope to accessing to your gists. Gists have two public, secret type which syncshell while executing syncshell upload command will use secret type to store your history file and keep them secret on Github Gist.
On the others machine, by executing syncshell download after entering your token key and created Gist ID you can download the gist and sync your shell's history.
Gists will be secret until you don't share it with someone else, In other words, It'll be secret and safe until you only have the Github Token and Gist ID.
Usage
Currently,
SyncShelljust supportzshand supporting other shells is in WIP.
Before SyncShell can be useful you need to setup your Github token key:
- Open Github personal access tokens page, Generate a new token with
gistscope feature. - Execute the
syncshell authcommand, Enter your token key to validate and confirm it. - Done :wink:
Now you can try to upload your shell history by the following command:
$ syncshell upload
After the uploading process, you'll take a Gist ID that by this ID and your Github token, you can download history on the others machine by executing the following command:
$ syncshell download
Todo
- [ ] Write more test cases
