extrakto for tmux

intro

Output completions - you can complete commands that require you to retype text that is already on the screen. This works everywhere, even in remote ssh sessions.

You can fuzzy find your text instead of selecting it by hand:

  • press tmux prefix + tab to start extrakto
  • fuzzy find the text/path/url/line
  • press
    • tab to insert it to the current pane,
    • enter to copy it to the clipboard,
    • ctrl-o to open the path/url or
    • ctrl-e to edit with $EDITOR

Use it for paths, URLs, options from a man page, git hashes, docker container names, ...

Installation

Requires tmux, fzf and Python 2/3. Supports Linux (xclip), macOS (pbcopy) and Bash on Windows clipboards.

Add the plugin to the list of TPM plugins in .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'laktak/extrakto'

Hit prefix + I to fetch the plugin and source it.

You should now have all extrakto key bindings defined.

Manual Installation

Clone the repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/laktak/extrakto ~/clone/path

Add this line to the bottom of .tmux.conf:

run-shell ~/clone/path/extrakto.tmux

Reload the tmux environment:

# type this in terminal
$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

You should now have all extrakto key bindings defined.

Options

To set any of these options write on your ~/.tmux.conf file:

set -g <option> "<value>"

Where <option> and <value> are one of the specified here:

Option Default Description
@extrakto_key tab The key binding to start. If you have any special requirements (like a custom key table) set this to '' and define a binding in your .tmux.conf. See extrakto.tmux for a sample.
@extrakto_opts "path/url word lines" The extract options in order, separated by space (word, lines or path/url)
@extrakto_split_direction v Whether the tmux split will be vertical or horizontal
@extrakto_split_size 7 The size of the tmux split
@extrakto_grab_area full Whether you want extrakto to grab data from the recent area, the full pane, all current window's recent areas or all current window's full panes. You can also set this option to any number you want (or number preceded by "window ", e.g. "window 500"), this allows you to grab a smaller amount of data from the pane(s) than the pane's limit. For instance, you may have a really big limit for tmux history but using the same limit may end up on having slow performance on Extrakto.
@extrakto_clip_tool auto Set this to whatever clipboard tool you would like extrakto to use to copy data into your clipboard. auto will try to choose the correct clipboard for your platform.
@extrakto_fzf_tool fzf Set this to path of fzf if it can't be found in your PATH.
@extrakto_open_tool auto Set this to path of your own tool or auto to use your platforms open implementation.
@extrakto_browser_tool `` Set this to path of your broser CLI binary
@extrakto_fzf_options '' Set this to your fzf options.

Example:

set -g @extrakto_split_size "15"

CLI

You can also use extrakto as a standalone tool to extract tokens from text.

Installation

For now simply clone the repository and link to the tool somewhere in your path:

git clone https://github.com/laktak/extrakto
cd extrakto
# assuming you `export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin` in your `.bashrc`:
ln -s $PWD/extrakto.py ~/.local/bin/extrakto

Requires Python 2/3.

CLI Usage

usage: extrakto.py [-h] [-p] [-u] [-w] [-l] [-r] [-m MIN_LENGTH]

Extracts tokens from plaintext.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p, --paths           extract path tokens
  -u, --urls            extract url tokens
  -w, --words           extract word tokens
  -l, --lines           extract lines
  -r, --reverse         reverse output
  -m MIN_LENGTH, --min-length MIN_LENGTH
                        minimum token length
