roamer
roamer copied to clipboard
abaldwin88
Use mv when applicable
This...
roamer-trash-copy /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/meh.txt
cp /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/meh.txt /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/argh.txt
rm /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/meh.txt
Should instead be this...
roamer-trash-copy /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/meh.txt
mv /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/meh.txt /Users/abaldwin/Desktop/bleh/argh.txt
Hi @abaldwin88, could you please describe little bit the reason what command roamer-trash-copy exists for?
I want to pick up this issue.
It does two things:
- It copies an entry (document or folder) into the trash directory. Default directory is here:
~/.roamer-data/trash. - It saves the trash entry in the SQLite db
This is done so that users can delete/overwrite files but still paste it in later sessions. In short it makes cut/paste operations work.
What do you think about using hard links instead of ~~copying~~ moving files?
Maybe even copying.
The tricky part is linking to the correct content after a file has been copied over top of. Take a look through some of the test cases around that.
