README.md

rb

With 10 lines of Ruby replace most of the command line tools that you use to process text inside of the terminal.

Here's the code

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

def execute(_, code)
  puts _.instance_eval(&code)
rescue Errno::EPIPE
  exit
end

single_line = ARGV[0] == '-l'
code = ARGV.drop(single_line ? 1 : 0).join(' ')
code = eval("Proc.new { #{code} }")
single_line ? STDIN.each { |l| execute(l, code) } : execute(STDIN.readlines, code)

Clone this repo and copy the rb file to somewhere in your path (or just copy and paste the above).

With this you can use ruby as a command line utility much more ergonomically than invoking it the standard way.

There's only one switch -l which runs your code on each line separately. Otherwise you get the whole stdin as an Array of lines. It's instance_evaled so some methods need self to work, eg. self[-1]

Install

Just paste this line into your terminal to install rb:

sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thisredone/rb/master/rb -o /usr/local/bin/rb && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rb

Examples

Extract docker images from running containers 
> docker ps | rb drop 1 | rb -l split[1]

# ubuntu
# postgres
Display how much time ago containers have exited 
> docker ps -a | rb grep /Exited/ | rb -l 'split.last.ljust(20) + " => " + split(/ {2,}/)[-2]'

Sort df -h output by Use% 
> df -h | rb 'drop(1).sort_by { |l| l.split[-2].to_f }'

# udev                         3,9G     0  3,9G   0% /dev
# tmpfs                        3,9G     0  3,9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
# /dev/sda1                    511M  3,4M  508M   1% /boot/efi
# /dev/sda2                    237M   85M  140M  38% /boot

# or leave the header if you want
> df -h | rb '[first].concat drop(1).sort_by { |l| l.split[-2].to_f }'
