Config

Multi-purpose configuration and data utility tool. Initialize settings, add entries, search records, and export data β€” all from the command line.

Commands

| Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | config run | Execute the main function with the given input | | config config | Show the configuration file path ($DATA_DIR/config.json) | | config status | Display current system status (shows "ready" when operational) | | config init | Initialize the data directory and prepare for first use | | config list | List all entries stored in the data log | | config add | Add a new timestamped entry to the data log | | config remove | Remove a specified entry | | config search | Search entries by keyword (case-insensitive) | | config export | Export all stored data to stdout | | config info | Show version number and data directory path | | config help | Show help with all available commands | | config version | Show current version |

Data Storage

  • Default data directory: ~/.local/share/config/
  • Data log: $DATA_DIR/data.log β€” stores all added entries with timestamps
  • History log: $DATA_DIR/history.log β€” timestamped record of every command executed
  • Override the storage location by setting the CONFIG_DIR environment variable
  • Requirements

  • Bash 4+ (uses set -euo pipefail)
  • No external dependencies, API keys, or network access required
  • Fully offline and local β€” data never leaves your machine
  • When to Use

    1. Bootstrapping a new project β€” Run init to create the data directory and get a clean starting point for configuration tracking 2. Logging configuration changes β€” Use add to record timestamped configuration decisions, environment changes, or deployment notes 3. Searching through config history β€” Find specific entries with search to trace when a setting was last changed 4. Exporting settings for backup β€” Dump all stored entries with export and redirect to a file for version control or sharing 5. Quick status checks in scripts β€” Use status and info in automation pipelines to verify the tool is ready before proceeding

    Examples

    # Initialize the config data directory
    config init

    Record a configuration change

    config add "Set DATABASE_URL to production endpoint"

    Record another entry

    config add "Enabled rate limiting: 100 req/min"

    List all recorded entries

    config list

    Search for entries related to a keyword

    config search "database"

    Export all data to a backup file

    config export > config-backup.txt

    Check system status

    config status

    View version and storage location

    config info

    How It Works

    The tool maintains a simple date-stamped text log (data.log). Each add command appends a new line with the current date and your input. Every command execution is also logged to history.log for audit trails. The search command performs a case-insensitive grep, and export outputs the full data log to stdout.

    Tips

  • Use config config to find where the config JSON file is stored β€” handy for automated backup
  • Pipe export into other tools: config export | wc -l to count entries
  • Combine with cron or CI/CD: log config drifts automatically with config add "$(diff old new)"
  • Run config help at any time to see the complete command reference
