Show HN: Stash, an evernote for command line
- krat0sprakhar 12y agoCool tool! How do I save a code snippet if its in a file using stash? An example please?
- source99 12y agoThis seems pretty cool. Not sure if I will remember to use it but might work better than a txt file I keep handy. Though for my most common annoyingly long commands I normally create an alias.
- Spittie 12y agoIndeed. I usually rely on ZSH + the zsh-history-substring-plugin, on Bash + ^r or my .bashrc/.zshrc, but this looks like a better solution. The synching sound sweet, but I wonder if the data get encrypted. It's opensource so I can just look myself, but I think it's something that should be clear on the homepage.
- nyddle 12y agoRight now it is not. We'll add encryption as soon as possible.
- bulldog4 12y agoLooks nice to keep things like urls and some todo lists closer! Will check it!
- pm 12y agos/coud/cloud, presumably.
- nyddle 12y agoSure, fixed.
- techsupporter 12y agoIs there something that I can run locally for the data storage yet still hit from multiple computers? I've considered writing a CLI interface to the Etherpad API for just this reason. A lot of what I do depends on code/script snips but I can't store my employer's stuff in someone else's system.

- nyddle 12y agoYou mean like an internally hosted version of trystash.com?
- eudoxus 12y agoI for one would very much appreciate a self hosted version.
- techsupporter 12y agoYep, that's exactly what I'd like.
- s_kilk 12y agoFunnily enough, I've been working on a little open-souce evernote clone side project for the last while, and was just contemplating making a cli client for it the other day. https://github.com/ShaneKilkelly/radsticks https://github.com/ShaneKilkelly/radsticks I may have to bump that up the priority list a bit, once I've done some work to make the project more ready for self deployment.
- Jonovono 12y agoI just replaced Evernote with Justnotes. It's like nValt but I think with more features (tags, etc). Mapped to a nice keyboard shortcut and it's really fast to access old notes / make new ones. :)
- CyberShadow 12y agoCan I run my own server? Is the server part open-source too, or just the client?
- nyddle 12y agoNot yet, just the client.
- cshimmin 12y agoThe server is called "redis"
- CyberShadow 12y agoThanks, but no thanks. I would suggest adding a privacy policy to your website.
- eudoxus 12y agoIs there a reason the server isnt open source? Do you have some business model in mind, or just havent got around to it.
- nyddle 12y agoJust haven't thought about it yet. But seems like people want a self-hosted version so I think we'll come up with one after polishing the current version.
- err4nt 12y agoBrilliant! Are there any other tools from the command line that I can use from my web server to make my life easier like this?
- michaelmior 12y agoSeems like you could emulate this easily with Dropbox and a couple shell aliases.
- emdowling 12y agoWould love something like this for 1Password. Being able to quickly grab credentials from command line would be great when logging in to boxes not set up for key-based login.
- jareds 12y agoHave you considered using kpcli and Keepass files to store server info for machines not set up with key based login? I use it on OSX with my keepass database and it works pretty well. See http://kpcli.sourceforge.net/ http://kpcli.sourceforge.net/
- nyddle 12y agoThank you, will check this out.
- shitlord 12y agoCool as fuck! Will definitely use. Some issues I noticed: * When you are signing up and type your email address into the box, it gives you an error if you press enter (but it works if you click the button) * Typo here: http://i.imgur.com/w6rxsqx.png http://i.imgur.com/w6rxsqx.png * Doesn't seem to work on Windows 8. The package installs fine (via pip) but breaks when I try to use it... http://i.imgur.com/Llokwl9.png http://i.imgur.com/Llokwl9.png CBF sending this as an email
- nyddle 12y agoThank you! Fixed the singnup box. Haven't tried it on Windows yet (think we'll have to fix some directory code).
- dmd 12y agoI get "Method Not Allowed The method is not allowed for the requested URL."
- nyddle 12y agoFixed.
- prezjordan 12y agoSee also: Boom (Open-source). The project page is pretty aggressive, but it's a nice little tool. http://zachholman.com/boom/ http://zachholman.com/boom/
- mushishi 12y agoSlightly related: an old Scala command line todo app of mine: https://code.google.com/p/whendone/wiki/ExampleSession https://code.google.com/p/whendone/wiki/ExampleSession

- lesingerouge 12y agoLooks really cool and will definitely try it. Was also thinking about forking it and making it save the key value pairs on a file in my dropbox.
- nyddle 12y agoGreat idea! I think we can somehow add a "remote dropbox" (or whatever) option to the client.
- aaronem 12y agoA reasonable first cut might be making the local storage target configurable (if it isn't already), so that the user could point it to a file synced by Dropbox. It doesn't look like there's any daemon involved, so changes made from one box would be visible on the others as soon as Dropbox finished syncing them.
- lesingerouge 12y agoPerfect idea, simple and elegant. Though I wonder if there would not be lock conflicts between the file-syncing dropbox does and the file-reading that stash would need.
- Ixiaus 12y agoOr you could use org-mode + capture + org-protocol.
- nyddle 12y agoThat's for real programmers! http://xkcd.com/378/ http://xkcd.com/378/
- blutoot 12y agoAfter I turn off local mode, why does it still say "local" when adding a new key-value pair? "Item has been updated (local)"
- nyddle 12y agoFixed.
