stinkpot is an sqlite backed shell-history searcher for
bash.
stinkpot is a much tinier atuin (https://atuin.sh). i have
been using atuin for a while, but i don't use most of its
features: the sync server, atuin AI, dotfiles manager,
script manager or the KV store. while sync is interesting,
my machines have very different setups and i tend to run
very different commands on them.
my only usecase for atuin was the session agnostic history
management, and the searcher TUI. stinkpot provides these
while being about 400 lines of go.
stinkpot is a tiny turtle species apparently, hence the
name.
develop
-------
to build:
go build -o stinkpot .
usage
-----
if you use home-manager for nixos, stinkpot has a
home-manager module:
home-manager.users.<name> = {
imports = [
./home.nix
inputs.stinkpot.homeManagerModules.default
];
};
if not, just call eval the init script in your .bashrc:
eval "$(stinkpot init)"
start by importing your existing bash history into stinkpot:
stinkpot import
and then hit ctrl+r at your shell to trigger reverse search:
> search history...

speeds up reverse search, the sqlite plan now uses covering index
