These Are The Bash Shell Commands That Stand Between Me And Insanity

I will not profess to be a bash shell wizard… but I have managed to scour some pretty helpful little scripts from Stack Overflow and modify them to suit my needs.

All of these commands are for Ubuntu/WSL … some may work in other scenarios but I can’t guarantee it.

As of this writing I have about 120 more bash snippets I regularly use… I am not writing the whole article right now but I wanted to get it started so I feel obligated to finish it!

Recursive Unzip followed by recursive delete zip:

Remove spaces from file and folder names

Find and replace in string/folder names 

find . -type f -exec rename ‘s/string1/string2/g’ {} +

Remove numbers from file names 

find $dir -type f | sed ‘s|\(.*/\)[^A-Z]*\([A-Z].*\)|mv \”&\” \”\1\2\”|’ | sh

Delete files within size range ( for when GitHub cries about file size): 

find . -size +386b -a -size -390b -exec rm -f {} \;

Create symbolic link to working directory 

ln -s “$(pwd)” ~/mylink

Remove any traces of a git repository: 

find . \( -name “.git” -o -name “.gitignore” -o -name “.gitmodules” -o -name “.gitattributes” \) -exec rm -rf — {} +

Replace spaces in filenames with underscores 

for file in *; do mv “$file” `echo $file | tr ‘ ‘ ‘_’` ; done

Remove Empty Files and Folders: 

find . -empty -type f -print -delete
find . -empty -type d -print -delete

or 

find . -depth -exec rmdir {} \;

Autogenerate a navigable HTML directory for all the files in the current working directory you exicute the script in:

React Tricks

REACT-TIPS React Tips Replace Redux with React Query As our application gets larger it becomes harder to manage state across our components, we may reach for a state management library like Redux. If our application relies on data that we get from an API, we often use Redux to fetch that server state and then update our application state. This can be a challenging process; not only do you have to fetch data, but you also need to handle the different states, depending on whether you have the data or are in a loading or error state. Instead of using Redux to manage data you get from a server, use a library like React Query. React Query not only gives you greater control over making HTTP requests in your React apps through helpful hooks and the ability to easily refetch data, but it also enables us to seamlessly manage state across our app components, of...
