aliases.sh

A tiny static site that publishes my curated bash aliases and renders the real aliases.sh file with build-time syntax highlighting.

How it works

index.html contains the site metadata directly and uses an explicit placeholder for the aliases code block.
src/injectAliases.ts inlines the Highlight.js theme and renders the real aliases.sh content at build/dev time.
The built site is static and does not include runtime browser JavaScript.
concat is a Bash wrapper over an inline Node engine at the end of aliases.sh.

Local development

pnpm install
pnpm dev
pnpm test
pnpm bench:concat
pnpm build

Optional benchmark examples:

pnpm bench:concat
pnpm bench:concat -- --scale medium
pnpm bench:concat -- --target .

Concat benchmark

pnpm bench:concat runs the real concat function from aliases.sh. The harness launches Git Bash, sources the aliases file, runs concat ".", and measures wall-clock time around the full invocation, including snapshot generation and writing temp.txt.

By default it benchmarks against a synthetic fixture that mixes:

Included source and docs files
Pruned directories like .git, dist, and node_modules
Excluded files such as .env, lockfiles, large files, and binary assets

If you pass --target <path>, it benchmarks an existing directory instead. The benchmark restores an existing temp.txt after each run, removes generated fixtures unless told not to, and reports per-run output size, line count, included/excluded counts, output hash, plus min/median/avg/max timings.

Arguments:

--target <path>: benchmark an existing directory instead of generating a fixture
--scale <tiny|small|medium|large>: choose the synthetic fixture size, default small
--iterations <n>: number of measured runs, default 3
--warmup <n>: number of warmup runs before measuring, default 1
--keep-fixture: keep the generated synthetic fixture on disk
--keep-output: keep the benchmark-generated temp.txt when there was no original one
--help: print the built-in usage text

On Windows, the harness needs Git Bash. Set GIT_BASH_PATH if it is installed outside the usual locations.

Notes

aliases.sh itself is currently Bash-oriented. This repo does not guarantee zsh compatibility.
concat now requires Node, but the full implementation is inlined inside aliases.sh.
