tmux-sessionizer (tms)

The fastest way to manage projects as tmux sessions

What is tmux-sessionizer?

Tmux Sessionizer is a tmux session manager that is based on ThePrimeagen's tmux-sessionizer but is opinionated and personalized to my specific tmux workflow. And it's awesome. Git worktrees are automatically opened as new windows, specific directories can be excluded, a default session can be set, killing a session jumps you to a default, and it is a goal to handle more edge case scenarios.

This CLI tool also pairs well with my git-repo-clone tool.

Usage

Running tms will find the repos and fuzzy find on them

Use tms --help ``` USAGE: tms [SUBCOMMAND]

OPTIONS: -h, --help Print help information -V, --version Print version information

SUBCOMMANDS: config Configure the defaults for search paths and excluded directories help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s) kill Kill the current tmux session and jump to another sessions Show running tmux sessions with asterisk on the current session ```

Configuring defaults

``` USAGE: tms config [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS: --excluded ... As many directory names as desired to not be searched over

-h, --help
        Print help information

-p, --paths <search paths>...
        The paths to search through. Paths must be full paths (no support for ~)

    --remove <remove dir>...
        As many directory names to be removed from the exclusion list

-s, --session <default session>
        The default session to switch to (if avaliable) when killing another session

```

Installation

Cargo

Install with cargo install tmux-sessionizer or

From source

Clone the repository and install using cargo install --path . --force

Notes

I use the tmux sessions command to get a tmux styled output of the running session and I use that output on the bottom right of my tmux status bar. E.g.

If there is an easier way to do this someone please tell me.
