A curated list of command-line utilities written in Rust

Note: I have moved this list to a proper repository. I'll leave this gist up, but it won't be updated. To submit an idea, open a PR on the repo.

Note that I have not tried all of these personally, and cannot and do not vouch for all of the tools listed here. In most cases, the descriptions here are copied directly from their code repos. Some may have been abandoned. Investigate before installing/using.

The ones I use regularly include: bat, dust, fd, fend, hyperfine, miniserve, ripgrep, just, cargo-audit and cargo-wipe.

GROKKING NOTES

I liked the way Grokking the coding interview organized problems into learnable patterns. However, the course is expensive and the majority of the time the problems are copy-pasted from leetcode. As the explanations on leetcode are usually just as good, the course really boils down to being a glorified curated list of leetcode problems.

So below I made a list of leetcode problems that are as close to grokking problems as possible.

Pattern: Sliding Window

• https://leetcode.com/problems/maximum-subarray/ # Close enough
• https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-size-subarray-sum/

Creating a SSL certificate locally using Certbot on Mac OS and deploying to an existing Heroku App

Caveats

• You must have a heroku app deployed on the hobby tier. This is NOT the free tier and costs ~7/month
• i'm assuming you have homebrew installed. It will be need to install the Certbot client
• i'm also assuming you have the heroku CLI tools installed

first up, run this to install the certbot client

brew install certbot

# If you use bash, this technique isn't really zsh specific. Adapt as needed.

# AWS configuration example, after doing:
# $  set-keychain-environment-variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
#       provide: "AKIAYOURACCESSKEY"
# $  set-keychain-environment-variable AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
#       provide: "j1/yoursupersecret/password"
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$(keychain-environment-variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID);
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$(keychain-environment-variable AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY);

The Ansible playbook installs everything needed to serve static files from a nginx server over HTTPS.
The server pass A rating on [SSL Labs](https://www.ssllabs.com/).

 2. Setup an Ubuntu 16.04 server accessible over ssh
 3. Create `/etc/ansible/hosts` according to template below and change example.com to your domain
 4. Copy the rest of the files to an empty directory (`playbook.yml` in the root of that folder and the rest in the `templates` subfolder)

The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

If you use git on the command-line, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to explore your repos with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.

Some people don't add aliases because they don't want to have to adjust to not having them on a remote server. Personally, I find that having aliases doesn't mean I that forget the underlying commands, and aliases provide such a massive improvement to my workflow that it would be crazy not to have them.

The simplest way to add an alias for a specific git command is to use a standard bash alias.
