Some tools/wrappers around tmux to make my life easier
Pane movement. Not perfect but does it well enough for my use. Will probably improve upon it at some point.
tmux-tools wm [top|bottom|left|right]
TODO:
- It would be nice if neighbors swapped instead of moved I think? Or an option to swap? idk
Nested tmux session with auto-close. I use this in neovim config for my toggle terminal so I can have multiple term tabs.
tmux-tools nest --tmux-config <path to nested.conf>
In my nested config, I have special remaps setup so it doesn't interfere with the parent tmux mappings:
- Normal config:
source-file ~/.config/tmux/common.conf
unbind C-b
set -g prefix M-Space;
- Nested config:
source-file ~/.config/tmux/common.conf
unbind C-b
set -g prefix M-a;
Save/restore tmux sessions including commands
Uses config file (default: ~/.config/tmux/tools/config.yaml):
sessions:
# Where to save sessions
sessions_path: "~/.config/tmux/sessions"
# Which commands to "restore" (Runs the command in the pane it was in when saved)
restore_cmds:
- "vim"
- "nvim"
- "less"
- "tail"
- "man"Asks for name of session:
tmux-tools sessions save
Save session as provided name:
tmux-tools sessions save --name <name>
Load session by provided name:
tmux-tools sessions load --name <name>
Load session by fzf (requires fzf binary be in PATH):
tmux-tools sessions load
TODO:
- Should kill new session if restoring fails
Kills all non-(attached) sessions on -S socket
Focus pane in a given direction:
tmux-tools focus-pane {left | bottom | top | right}
- Standardize logging (style/formatting) across the tool
