We can add a -q
to silence output.
Also I'm thinking about a config file so users can tweat default behavior
Great. I also think a command for on/off profiles could be useful.
$ hostctl list -m
awesome on
meh off
splendid on
This is much easily scripted as I want to make a dmenu
script for turning profiles on and off.
effectively, hostctl list --raw -c profile,status | uniq
.
just an idea, not really a feature request:
How about hostctl toggle
along side enable
and disable
?
hostctl list -m
What would be the meaning of -m
? menu? not sure I get it.
The toggle
idea could be useful. Or even some kind of "only
" to turn all off and switch to one specific profile.
the -m
is for minimal.
Or even some kind of "only" to turn all off and switch to one specific profile.
I agree. Different modes for enabling/disabling can be very handy.
I suggested toggle
just to ease with the cognitive load and make use of commands from history.
Another mere suggestion and not a feature request is having hostctl list --on
/hostctl list --off
to list only on or off profiles.
This issue ended up on this features:
hostctl list enabled
to show only enabled profiles. (also works with alias on
)hostctl list disabled
to show only disabled profiles. (also works with alias off
)hostctl status
to show only one profile name per line and its statusThanks for your contribution @smhmd!
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use
/etc/hosts
to block websites during work and it exceeds 20,000 lines. When listing profiles, it all gets outputted.Describe the solution you'd like I would love there to be a minified output flag (through persistent configuration?
hostctl config minimal
)Describe alternatives you've considered outputting to
/dev/null
, but I want to see enabled/disabled profiles.
