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 + tabto start extrakto - fuzzy find the text/path/url/line
- press
tabto insert it to the current pane,enterto copy it to the clipboard,ctrl-oto open the path/url orctrl-eto edit with$EDITOR
Use it for paths, URLs, options from a man page, git hashes, docker container names, ...
Requires tmux, fzf and Python 2/3. Supports Linux (xclip), macOS (pbcopy) and Bash on Windows clipboards.
with Tmux Plugin Manager
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.
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.
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_default_opt |
word |
The default extract options (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_copy_key |
enter |
Key to copy selection to clipboard. |
@extrakto_insert_key |
tab |
Key to insert selection. |
Example:
set -g @extrakto_split_size "15"
set -g @extrakto_clip_tool "xsel --input --clipboard" # works better for nvim
set -g @extrakto_copy_key "tab" # use tab to copy to clipboard
set -g @extrakto_insert_key "enter" # use enter to insert selection
You can also use extrakto as a standalone tool to extract tokens from text.
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.
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
