# GitLab Project Manager

## Purpose

The goal of this utility is to provide a fuzzy-find method of locating, cloning,
and using GitLab projects -- along with your preferred aliases, autocompletion,
and shortcuts.

## Functionality

Fuzzy as F_ck. This program will try like hell to help you find a project,
and once you've found it, will remember your preference along with whatever crazy
thing your lizard brain wants to call it.

Do you think of a project called terraform as infra-stuff? No problem, just let
gpm know that and it'll remember.

The basic workflow looks like this:

1. **Cache** -- load your cache to make things super quick
	- project cache has a TTL, or you can load it manually
	- you only need to update it if there are new projects the cache is unaware of
2. **Add** -- find your project, give it any extra aliases you want
  - run `gpm project add` (or `padd` if using the provided shell defaults)
3. **Go** -- go to your project, fuzzy searching by alias
  - clones your project if that's never been done
	- the provided `pgo` func makes it easy
4. **Open** -- rather than simply changing directories to a project, open it in your IDE
5. **Manage** -- fine-tune your aliases, making it easy to nail them without fuzzy stuff
  - if you are lazy in your aliases, you'll be fuzzy finding a lot
	- match your alias exactly (or have only one result) and you go there right away
	- positive reinforcement given for solid alias behavior
	- manage aliases using `gpm alias add` or `gpm alias delete`
6. **List** -- get a list of your configured projects any time with `plist`
7. **Reward** -- buy the author a beer, because this thing is a time saver

## TODO

- [ ] Fix NPE when cache is reset or project for whatever reason leaves an orphaned alias
- [ ] Add config setters and getters
- [ ] Add TTL check to cache load, and add -f / --force flag to re-build regardless
- [ ] For each project loaded, check if it is the same, and do nothing
	- [ ] prevents clobbering cache on a partial update
	- [ ] track already loaded projects to diff after load
	- [ ] should prune missing after the load is complete
- [ ] Add open command
	- [ ] config should exist for editor (vim, code, etc..)
- [ ] Update README for shell completion, aliases, usage
- [ ] Make a Makefile
- [ ] Add git repo status to project go (up-to-date, pending commits, etc..)
- [x] Merge aliases together for same project when selecting
	- [ ] If after merging there is only one project, go there by default
