This is really documentation for my .profile in the form of a blog post. I detail the utilities that I use on daily base via function definitions on this file and a little of what I have learned maintaining this file.
I separate the code side on the .profile and then the private variables (not suitable for publication) on .bashrc.
Meta Documentation
In order to generate the gist for this post, I execute the following to create a gist from the command line:
A="Authorization: token $GITHUB_PAT"
C=$(jq -R -s . ~/.profile)
B='{"public":true,"files":{"profile.sh":{"content": '$C'}}}'
curl -v -H "$A" -X POST -d "$B" https://api.github.com/gists
I also added the following CSS to hide line numbers from the gists:
/* Hide line numbers from gists */
td[data-line-number] { display: none; }
Embedded Utilities (of note)
There are some “bash” functions embedded in the .profile and are things that I use recurrently. Some of those are:
fpd: Fix Photo(s) Date(s) by modifying the file date to the EXIF date creationips: To list AWS IP addresses for a set of AWS profilesmedium: To post a medium story via the APIterms: To open the terminals I need for development
