ssfm is a simple file-manager created to simplify operations involving files from the terminal. This can be particularly useful when using SSH connections and you only have the command line available.
To install the program, you can proceed from pip:
pip3 install ssfm or clone and install from this repository manually.
The project is mainly inspired by SpaceVim, a terminal editor where operations are done with the spacebar key as leader. Below is a simplified version of the documentation with the main key combinations.
<SPC><f><n>: Create a new file<SPC><f><m>: Create a new folder<SPC><f><e>: Edit a file (or open the folder as project and edit)<SPC><f><d>: Delete a file or folder<SPC><f><y>: Copy a file or folder<SPC><f><x>: Cut a file or folder<SPC><f><p>: Paste a file or folder
<SPC><w><w>: Switch focus to next window<SPC><w><n>: Create a new window<SPC><w><d>: Delete the currently focused window
Note: deleting the last remaining window will lead to the termination of the application.
In order to use the git functionalities, it is actually required to install tig (https://github.com/jonas/tig).
<SPC><g><g>: Summary of the status of the current git folder<SPC><g><s>: Status - tig status command<SPC><g><l>: Log - tig log command
For the realization of some window boxes, I used the library cursesDialog (https://github.com/jacklam718/cursesDialog)
