Configuration

The config command will help you set your app preferences.

When you first run dm config you will be prompted with a setup asking you to set your settings.

After that, you can:

Syntax	Description
`dm config --all`	Prompt the first-time setup to configure everything.
`dm config --editor`	Save your prefered text editor to the open projects with.
`dm config --host`	Save your Git provider to clone projects from.
`dm config --owner`	Save your Git username to identify yourself.
`dm config --show`	Print the current settings.
`dm config --map`	Save your currently cloned project paths.

Workspaces

Think of workspaces as containers for your repositories, you can classify and manipulate them in different ways.

To create a new workspace use:

dm workspace <name>

When you create a workspace, you can use it to clone a repository to that workspace.

dm clone <repo> --workspace <name>

You can add and remove existing repositories to a workspace.

dm workspace <name> --add | --remove <repo>

If you no longer need a workspace, you can either move the repositories to another workspace manually or delete the workspace and all repositories inside it will return to the owner's folder.

dm workspace <name> --delete

You can also rename workspaces, the folders will be updated accordingly.

dm workspace <name> --rename <name>

You can list your existing workspaces.

dm workspace --list

Syntax	Description	Example
`dm workspace <name>`	Create a new workspace.	`dm workspace office`
`dm workspace <name> --add <repo>`	Add repository to workspace.	`dm workspace office --add devmode`
`dm workspace <name> --remove <repo>`	Remove repository from workspace.	`dm workspace office --remove devmode`
`dm workspace <name> --delete`	Delete a workspace.	`dm workspace office --delete`
`dm workspace <name> --rename <name>`	Rename a workspace.	`dm workspace office --rename work`
`dm workspace --list`	List all workspaces.	`dm workspace --list`

Cloning

Dev(mode) facilitates repository storage and organization in your filesystem.

How it works

When you clone a repository it will be stored to your filesystem using a specific folder structure.

You can also use dm cl

$HOME
└── Developer
    └── host
        └── owner
            └── workspace?
                └── repo

This makes it easier for you to find repositories and allows dm to open them by just specifying the name of the project.

Syntax	Description	Example
`dm clone`	Clone a repository using the setup.	`dm clone`
`dm clone <url>`	Clone by providing a URL.	`dm clone https://github.com/edfloreshz/devmode`
`dm clone <provider> <owner> <repository>`	Clone by providing parameters.	`dm clone github edfloreshz devmode`
`dm clone <args> --workspace <workspace>`	Clone into a specified workspace.	`dm clone gh edfloreshz devmode -w office`

The following commands only work when you run dm config.

Syntax	Description	Example
`dm config <repo>`	Clone by providing a repo name.	`dm clone devmode`
`dm clone <repo1> <repo2>`	Clone multiple repositories.	`dm clone devmode sensei`

Fork

Clone a repo and set the upstream url in one command.

Use the --upstream or -u to set the upstream repository, then specify the repository that you wish to configure.

Description	Syntax	Example
`dm fork <provider> <owner> <repo> -u <upstream-url>`	Clone and set the upstream repository.	`dm fork gh edfloreshz cosmic -u https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic`
`dm fork <url> -u <upstream-url>`	Using URLs.	`dm fork https://github.com/edfloreshz/cosmic -u https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic`
`dm fork --upstream <upstream-url>`	Just using the upstream URL.	`dm fork --upstream https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic`

Open a project

Opens a project with your selected text editor.

You can also use dm o

Description	Syntax	Example
`dm open <project>`	Open a project.	`dm open devmode`

If two or more projects with the same name are found, you will have to choose which one to open.

Proposals

If you have a proposal for a new feature, open a new issue.
