+
+After moving some GPG keys to a new computer I kept getting these trust warnings.
+
+```
+It is NOT certain that the key belongs to the person named
+in the user ID.If you * really * know what you are doing,
+you may answer the next question with yes.
+
+Use this key anyway? (y/N)
+```
+
+To solve this one has to edit the key and set a trust level.
+
+```javascript
+$ gpg--edit - key 't@coolsite.com'
+trust
+5
+```

+
+My first [awk](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AWK) snippet! Today I needed to get
+all the file extensions in directory for a blog post I'm writing.
+
+I solved it with:
+
+```shell
+$ fd . --type f | awk -F"." '{print $(NF)}' |  tr  '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' | sort | uniq | pbcopy
+```
+
+## Break down
+
+**fd . --type f**, lists all the files in a directory recursively.
+
+**awk -F"." '{print $(NF)}'**, the **-F"."** tells awk to split columns on ".". The **'{print $(NF)'}** tells awk to print the last column.
+Normally you do something like **'{print $2}'** to print the second column.
+
+**tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'**, tr is a Unix until to translate characters. In
+this case all upper case letters will be translated to lower case. I've created a
+[seprate snippet](/snippets/lower-case) for it as well.
+
+**sort | uniq**, a classic combo sorts the results then gets rid of duplicates.
+
+**pbcopy**, anther common one for me pipes the result into the clipboard.

+Pairing well with the sync is invalidating the CDN so that the live site is updated immediately with the S3 bucket.

+Got a repo with sensitive data you don't want to push to a remote server you don't control? Have a NAS setup on our home network?

+
+Change directorys to the NAS and clone the local folder with the _--bare_ option.
+
+```shell
+$ cd /Volumes/travis/git
+$ git clone --bare ~/.password-store

+
+This creates **/Volumes/travis/git/.password-store** but without a working directory. Basically its just the **/.git** part of the repo.
+
+**Step 2:**
+
+Setup the NAS file path to be a git remote on the repo.
+
+```shell
+$ cd ~/.password-store
+$ git remote add nas /Volumes/travis/git/travisshears.com.git

+I use git exclusive from the command line and while it's interface is very clear since I spend so
+much time I'm willing to trade some of that clarity for speed. ZSH has a great plugin for really
+fast git tasks. Two of my favorite are pushing while setting a upstream branch and adding patches.
+
+**GPSUP, git set upstream and push shortcut**
+
+I push new git branches a few times a day and my previous work flow was to:
+
+```shell
+$ gp
+fatal: The current branch NOTICKET-XXX has no upstream branch.
+To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use
+
+    git push --set-upstream origin NOTICKET-XXX
+```
+
+followed by the classic [fuck command](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/thefuck):
+
+```shell
+$ fuck
+```
+
+which then runs the proper push command setting upstream. News flash! This call all be accomplished
+with a single plugin command:
+
+```shell
+$ gpsup
+```
+
+**GAPA, git add patch**
+
+I like small commits and the key to that for me is adding by patch. This short cut turns
+
+```shell
+$ git add --patch
+```
+
+to
+
+
+```shell
+$ gapa
+```
+
+Can't recommend the zsh git plugin enough! There are too many shortcut commands to be worth
+memorizing but I think **gpsup** and **gapa** are worth it. For a big list of commands it checkout the docs

+How to use a GPG key stored on a flash drive to encrypt files? I was perplexed for sometime. Eventually I figured out instead of exporting, importing, file system linking.. you just use a remote key ring that contains the keys you want!
+
+1. Create the new key on the flash drive with 
+
+```shell
+$ gpg --full-generate-key --homedir /Volumes/usb_flash_stick/key_homedir

+One of my oldest snippets is how to [Pretty print JSON](/snippets/pretty-print-json)

+
+```shell
+$ curl https://review-noticket-xxxxxxxx.eu/xxxxx/static/loadable-stats.json  | jq '.entrypoints .sharedHeader .assets' | rg --invert-match map`
+```
+
+Simply piping to [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq) pretty prints the JSON
+but by passing a query string, ex **".entrypoints .sharedHeader .assets"**,
+you dig into the JSON and easily get what you need. This is easily
+combinable with other shell utilities like in the example above which gets a
+list of asset URLs than uses ripgrep invert-match to clean out the source map
+URLs from the list. This is now my perfered way of working with JSON in the shell.

+Before putting a tar file somewhere hard to access like S3 Glacier I note what is in it. I create a manifest file. Simply list the file names within:
+
+```shell
+$ tar tvf example.tar
+```
+
+With more automation worked in I came up with this:
+
+- list all the tar files using fd (rust find replacment)
+- list content of each one
+- pipe that into a file for safe keeping
+
+```shell
+$ for x in $(fd -e tar) ; do (tar tvf "$x" && echo "\n") ; done > /tmp/example_manifest

+Today when writing a React hook I imported an enum type from another section of

+minimum the component would need to import two things, the hook itself, and the type
+enum. To many imports cluttering stuff us!
+
+
+```ts
+import useCoolHook from 'Client/hooks/CoolHoook';
+import HatStyleEnum from 'Client/hats/styles';

+...
+cool = useCoolHook(HatStyleEnum.cowboy);

+
+What I found is the ability to re-export the type from the hook to keep the enum

+
+```ts
+export {HatStyleEnum} from 'Client/hats/styles';
+
+export const useCoolHook = (hatId: HatStyleEnum) => {

+
+Looping directly in the shell is something I do at lease once a week and it's a great time saver.
+Here I want to run through a concrete example of how to use for loops to mass move and rename files.
+
+During process of getting this snippet section of my site off the ground I realize I had put a bunch
+of markdown files into named directories when I could have just named the files better and done without
+the directories. What I needed to do was **mv** the files out of these dirs and rename them to the
+name of the dir plus add the ".en.md" extension.
+
+Here is the old directory structure:
+
+```shell
+$ tree
+.
+└── snippets
+    ├── _index.en.md
+    ├── aws-cloud-front-inval
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── aws-s3-sync
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── ffmpeg-screen-casts
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── find-folder
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── git-better-git-add
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── git-log-grep
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    ├── git-move-branch
+    │   └── index.en.md
+    .
+    .
+```
+
+To start with I preformed the operation in question a single time to prove it works:
+
+```shell
+$ mv ./who-is-using-that-port/index.en.md ./who-is-using-that-port.en.md && rm -r ./who-is-using-that-port
+```
+
+Then I copy this command to the clipboard for later and use command history pull up a
+previous for loop command and switch the shell command entry external editing
+in vim mode, for me **\<C-x>\<C-e>**. As we are essentially writing a quick bash script in-line we need vim
+powers! While in vim if you need the file list a quick **:r !ls** does the trick.
+These little efficiencies like using command history are not just faster but make it so you
+don't have to remember the bash syntax.
+
+Resulting vim buffer with the for loop:
+
+```shell
+for x in \
+aws-s3-sync \
+ffmpeg-screen-casts \
+find-folder \
+git-better-git-add \
+git-log-grep \
+...
+git-move-branch \
+vim-window-resize ; do mv ./"$x"/index.en.md ./"$x".en.md && rm -r "$x" ; done
+```
+
+Resulting new file structure:
+
+```shell
+$ tree
+.
+└── snippets
+    ├── _index.en.md
+    ├── aws-cloud-front-inval.en.md
+    ├── aws-s3-sync.en.md
+    ├── ffmpeg-screen-casts.en.md
+    ├── find-folder.en.md
+    ├── git-better-git-add.en.md
+    ├── git-log-grep.en.md
+    ├── git-move-branch.en.md
+    .
+    .
+```
+
+Perfect, all files have been renamed properly and the empty directories deleted. This technique has
+lots of other applications besides moving and renaming files. Earlier this week while debugging api
+at work I dumped bunch of json responses into a file so I could search for translation key.
+
+```shell
+$ for x in \
+https://api.poeditor.com/v2/download/file/xxx \
+https://api.poeditor.com/v2/download/file/xxx \

It is now my go-to command for searching files whether it be inside vim via **:r !ag -G .php 'something'** or from the cli. It even has different outputs depending on the situation, in the cli it opens a temp window to browse results like **less** when piping or in vim it outputs a more machine-readable chunk of text with file paths, line numbers, and a single line of code.

+Vim help:
+
+> The argument list \*argument-list* \*arglist*
+
+> If you give more than one file name when starting Vim, this list is remembered
+> as the argument list.  You can jump to each file in this list.
+
+If you have been using vim a while you will be comfortable with the buffer list but often it's
+full of random files, terminal sessions, and other none file buffers, this is where arglist comes
+in. It starts out as list of files that were initially opened when the vim session was launched ex:
+
+```shell
+nvim ./a.txt ./b.txt ./c.txt
+```
+
+would start vim with three buffers in both arglist and buffer list. You can cycle through the
+arglist with files via **:next**, **:prev**. Further files opened will not be automatically added to
+the arglist so it's essentially a clean sub list of the buffer list.  Helpful commands include
+**:rew** to jump back to the first file you edited this session. Also **:all** which opens all
+buffers of the arglist in splits.
+
+Where I find the arglist particularly powerful is for mass file edits. Here is an day to day
+example:
+
+1. get files in questing into the arglist either pipe files to vim or from in vim override initial
+arglist.
+  - from cli 
+```shell
+$ rg -i 'snippet_typ.*vim' --files-with-matches | xargs nvim
+```
+
+  - from inside vim (harder because no autocomplete) 
+```vim script
+:args `rg -i 'snippet_typ.*vim' --files-with-matches`
+```
+
+1. now lets change all the posts front-matter to draft = true
+```vim script
+:argdo %s/draft: false/draft: false/g | update
+```
+thats it all the files have been modified and saved. Its best to use this kind of thing with
+version control so during an interactive git add you can verify each modification.
+
+For more complex edits I load files into the list a similar way then make quick manual and move to
+next file with **:wn** which also saves.

+I've used several fuzzy finder utilities in vim over the years like
+[Command T](https://github.com/wincent/Command-T) or
+[CtrlP](https://github.com/ctrlpvim/ctrlp.vim). They both have there pluses and
+minuses but never found them to be that fast especially with large code bases
+I'm often working in. Fzf for me is superior so I was excited to see a plugin
+that integrates Fzf so well into vim. Its not just useful for finding files but
+works great with buffers, files with git changes, commands, marks, and even
+lines in open buffers.
+
+My vim config for Fzf is as follows:
+
+```vim script
+nnoremap <Leader>pb :Buffers<CR>
+nnoremap <Leader>pf :GFiles<CR>
+nnoremap <Leader>pg :GFiles?<CR>
+nnoremap <Leader>pm :Marks<CR>
+nnoremap <Leader>pc :History:<CR>
+nnoremap <Leader>pl :Lines<CR>
+```
+
+This allows me to easily zip around my code base with speed.

+
+Moving efficiently in vim is a massive topic but recently I just wanted to take advantage of the
+jump list more but by xQuartz / xterm mac terminal setup meant the default key mappings we being
+intercepted as promote / demote pane. Simple remap did the trick
+
+```vim script
+nnoremap <Leader>i <C-i>
+nnoremap <Leader>o <C-o>
+```
+
+In the following demo I open this very post then navigate to my **.nvimrc** and yank the code
+remapping snippet. With the snipped yanked, using this using jump list via **\<C-O>**, I jump back
+to the markdown file I was editing and put.

+
+Half my time in the editor I'm not coding, I'm just browsing the file system trying to understand how things are connected. Trying figure out what needs to change in order to complete my task. This module imports this module which imports this module... There are many ways to navigate the file system and read files. Since I primarily code in VIM there are two main ways I navigate.
+
+One is using the file explorer from plugin, NerdTree. It is great for getting a general overview of folder structure of a project and moving, deleting, or creating new files. Also really good for finding sibling files using the **:NerdTreeFind** command which I have remapped to **<Leader><n>**. Where is lacks however is opening a nested import for example. When you want to jump to a different file / module directly.
+
+This is where the goto file comes in. Using the following commands in conjunction with moving up and down the jump list, navigation is easy. Here is an example where I use the goto command and a few of its variations. 
+
+{{< asciicast-with-caption id="307951" title="demo using vim's goto and jumplist commands" >}}
+
+The most helpful ones to learn are
+
+- **\<g>\<f>**       goto file, same window
+- **\<c-w>\<f>**     goto file, new split
+- **\<c-w>\<g>\<f>** goto file, new tab
+
+Also don't forget to use the jump list
+
+- **\<c-o>** or in my case remapped to **\<Leader>\<i>** to jump backwards

+
+This little bit of magic I believe I picked up from watching a Luke Smith video. The point is to
+leave placeholders in the form of the text "\<++>" in your code/writing then quickly snap to and
+fill them in later.
+
+```vim script
+" placeholder magic
+nnoremap <Space><Space> <Esc>/<++<CR>"_c4l
+nnoremap <Space>n <Esc>l/<++><CR>h
+" always fill p reg with <++>
+:autocmd VimEnter * :call setreg('p', '<++>')
+```
+
+1. Thanks to the vim enter hook the magic placeholder text is always in my p register so its easy to put with **\<">\<p>**
+1. Then to jump to the next placeholder and immediately start editing it with a simple **\<Space>\<Space>**
