SnipSnip - Local Code Snippet Storage!

SnipSnip aims to achieve the following:

• Prevent Googling for the same code snippet more than once
• Provide a terminal-based code snippet solution so you can stay in the zone
• Allow for programmers to learn languages easier by building their own reference
• Find 90% of desired code snippets in less than 5 seconds to keep you moving.

Requirements

• Python 2.6+
• *NIX/OS X operating system

Installation

git clone git://github.com/joequery/SnipSnip.git
cd SnipSnip
sudo python setup.py install

This installs the snipsnip script and creates a ~/.snipsnip directory. Since SnipSnip will need to create an index, the ~/.snipsnip directory will need appropriate permissions.

sudo chmod -R 777 ~/.snipsnip

Usage

run snipsnip from the terminal. Before you can create a code snippet, you need to create programming language/frameworks categories by going to Manage languages -> Add language. After you have created your categories, you can begin creating and searching for code snippets. A more detailed how-to guide is in the works!
