Shell Functions #

Omarchy comes with a set of shell functions to simplify common tasks and encapsulate convoluted parameter calls.

Compression #

• compress [file/dir]: Create a tar.gz archive from the file/dir.
• decompress [file.tar.gz]: Expand a tar.gz file.

Drives #

• iso2sd [image.iso]: Create a bootable drive on an SD card using the referenced iso file and picking the drive interactively.
• format-drive: Select an entire disk to format with a single exFAT partition (which works on Windows and macOS too). Be careful!

Transcoding #

• img2jpg: Turn any image into a near-full quality JPG.
• img2jpg-small: Turn any image into a near-full quality 1080p-wide JPG.
• img2jpg-medium: Turn any image into a near-full quality 1800p-wide JPG.
• img2png: Turn any image into a compressed-but-lossless PNG.
• transcode-video-1080p: Transcode a video to a good-balance 1080p MP4.
• transcode-video-4K: Transcode a video to a good-balance 4K MP4.

SSH Portforwarding #

Ideal for doing web development with localhost secure-context privileges against a remote box.

• fip: Forward one or more ports from a remote host to localhost via SSH.
• dip: Disconnect one or more forwarded ports.
• lip: List all active SSH port forwards.

Say you start a dev server on port 3000 on a machine accessible as nyc-dev, then you can run fip nyc-dev 3000 to forward that port, so localhost:3000 actually reaches nyc-dev:3000, but without the need for SSL certificates to establish the secure context needed for testing web sockets or the like.
