Fish shell config

My fish shell configuration and functions.

Functions

Look at the functions/ directory for the full list. Fish loads them automatically if they are in your fish config directory.

• abbreviations_erase_all: Erase all abbreviations and optionally refresh them. Useful when editing abbreviations on the fly.
• accounting_auto_rename_documents: Renames the documents passed as an input.
• accounting_file_expense: Names and archives a file for my accountant.
• add_to_user_path: Persistently prepends to your PATH via fish_user_paths.
• assets_move_to_directory: Finds and moves image files in subdirectories to a given directory, replicating the folder structure.
• bookmarks: Print, jump to, or move files to bookmarked locations.
• count_days: Count the days between two dates.
• ffmpeg_compress_nvenc: Compresses a video using the nvenc gpu encoder from NVidia, mostly for the web. Outputs an mp4 video.
• ffmpeg_remap_audio: Replaces a video's audio track with another audio file.
• ffmpeg_to_mp4_fastdecode: Transcodes video footage to an editing-friendly format, using a slight amount of compression. It's not as heavy as using a format like Prores, encodes faster, offers great performances in Blender's Video Sequence Editor, and it's good enough for YouTube videos.
• image_compress_and_overwrite: Compress and overwrite png files with pngquant.
• image_website_resize_banner: Resizes and compresses one or more images to use as a banner on the website, using imagemagick and pngquant.
• make_desktop_file: Creates a shortcut .desktop file for the gnome desktop.
• open_godot_project: Searches for Godot projects and opens the first project found.
• video_create_blender_projects: Create one or more video editing projects with Blender.
• video_move_and_create_thumbnail: Move the video to the youtube-exports folder, create a copy of the Youtube thumbnail template, and open it in Krita.
• video_youtube_livestream: Start the programs to set up or work on a livestream.
• workspace_reset: Kills programs and resets my workspace before moving to another project.
• youtube_dl_add_to_list: Add one or more URLs to the list of youtube videos and playlists to download.
• youtube_dl_all: Download all urls from a file passed as an argument.

Utility functions

• filter_files: Outputs a list of files filtered by a list of extensions.
• filter_folders: Outputs a list of valid directory paths.
• get_parent_directory: Outputs the parent of a directory. Works recursively.
• path_sanitize: Sanitizes a file name taking a path as input. Remove trailing whitespace from the basename, replaces whitespace and dashes with one dash, and makes it lowercase.

Autocompletion

• hub, a command-line tool to interact with GitHub efficiently.
• ffmpeg, a powerful tool to convert and stream video and audio.

Configuration

Fish doesn't need a lot of configuration. I use some plugins from the plugin manager Oh My Fish:

• Colored man pages to add colors to manual pages
• fasd to quickly find recent files and directories
• The sylb20nr theme for the prompt

For the syntax highlighting color theme, I use dracula, that comes built-into fish. Type fish_config to open the configuration window in the browser and change the color theme.
