Toucan command-line utilities¶
Toucan mostly consists of command-line fun times to make your life easier.
binlink
¶
binlink
symlinks scripts to $HOME/bin
.
Here’s the binlink
help text.
$ binlink -h
usage: binlink [-h] [--force] source [target]
symlink to $HOME/bin
positional arguments:
source source
target target
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--force overwrite an existing target in $HOME/bin
gclone
¶
gclone
clones a repository from GitHub. It’s a shortcut to save you
from actually finding the repo and copying the address. If you are
cloning your own repository and you have set up your ~/.usr_profile,
you don’t have to specify the username.
Here’s the gclone
help text.
$ gclone -h
usage: gclone [-h] [-f] [user] repo [dest]
Clone repos from GitHub.
positional arguments:
user username (default: lilyminium)
repo repository name
dest destination directory
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f, --force Skip command check
randomize
¶
Marking, and your Learning Management System can’t anonymize student submissions?
Use randomize
to hash submissions while you mark and unhash them
when you’re done with one easy line. The hashes are freely available in
the file, but you can just drag the file out
for safekeeping.
This module uses default libraries but likely requires Python 3. It’s not the most robustly written as we didn’t need it to be.
Here’s the randomize
help text.
$ randomize -h
usage: randomize [-h] [--back] [path]
hash paths
positional arguments:
path path to folder of Wattle submissions
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--back unhash things
