Dev Setup

Dev Setup v2.0.0 β€” a utility toolkit for logging, tracking, and managing development setup entries from the command line.

Commands

All commands accept optional input arguments. Without arguments, they display recent entries from the corresponding log. With arguments, they record a new timestamped entry.

| Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | run | Record or view run entries | | check | Record or view check entries | | convert | Record or view convert entries | | analyze | Record or view analyze entries | | generate | Record or view generate entries | | preview | Record or view preview entries | | batch | Record or view batch entries | | compare | Record or view compare entries | | export | Record or view export entries | | config | Record or view config entries | | status | Record or view status entries | | report | Record or view report entries | | stats | Show summary statistics across all log files | | search | Search all log entries for a keyword (case-insensitive) | | recent | Display the 20 most recent history log entries | | help | Show usage information | | version | Print version (v2.0.0) |

Data Storage

All data is stored locally in ~/.local/share/dev-setup/:

  • Per-command logs β€” Each command (run, check, convert, etc.) writes to its own .log file with pipe-delimited timestamp|value format.
  • history.log β€” A unified activity log recording every write operation with timestamps.
  • Export formats β€” The export utility function supports JSON, CSV, and TXT output, written to ~/.local/share/dev-setup/export..
  • No external services, databases, or API keys are required. Everything is flat-file and human-readable.

    Requirements

  • Bash (v4+ recommended)
  • No external dependencies β€” uses only standard Unix utilities (date, wc, du, tail, grep, sed, basename, cat)
  • When to Use

  • When you need to log and track development setup activities on macOS
  • To maintain a searchable history of tool installations and configurations
  • For batch recording of setup tasks with timestamps
  • When you want to export setup logs in JSON, CSV, or TXT format
  • As part of a larger provisioning or onboarding automation pipeline
  • To get quick statistics and summaries of past setup activities
  • Examples

    # Record a new run entry
    dev-setup run "installed Homebrew and Xcode CLI tools"

    View recent run entries (no args = show history)

    dev-setup run

    Check something and log it

    dev-setup check "Vim plugins installed via vim-plug"

    Analyze and record

    dev-setup analyze "iTerm2 config imported from dotfiles"

    Configure and record

    dev-setup config "set default shell to zsh"

    Generate a record

    dev-setup generate "shell profile backup"

    Search across all logs

    dev-setup search "homebrew"

    View summary statistics

    dev-setup stats

    Show recent activity across all commands

    dev-setup recent

    Show tool version

    dev-setup version

    Show full help

    dev-setup help

    How It Works

    Each command follows the same pattern: 1. With arguments β€” Timestamps the input, appends it to the command-specific log file, prints confirmation, and logs to history.log. 2. Without arguments β€” Shows the last 20 entries from that command's log file.

    The stats command iterates all .log files, counts entries per file, and reports totals plus disk usage. The search command performs case-insensitive grep across all log files. The recent command tails the last 20 lines of history.log.
